The journey
Your driver arrives at your address, or at a local landmark if that is easier — Cranleigh High Street, Cranleigh School and the village centre are all regular pickup points in Cranleigh.

Southampton Cruise Terminal has 5 terminals — Ocean Cruise Terminal, Mayflower Cruise Terminal, QEII Cruise Terminal, City Cruise Terminal and Horizon Cruise Terminal. Tell us your flight number and we take you to the right one. Each terminal has its own vehicle drop-off directly beside the ship, inside the port gate.
Timing
Working back from the airport: allow about 4 hours before a short-haul departure and 5 hours before a long-haul one. That is the journey at its slowest plus the standard two- and three-hour check-in windows.

On the road
In their words
“Booked a chauffeur for an early airport run and the car was outside five minutes before pickup. Smooth, quiet journey and the driver knew the fastest route around the roadworks.”
“We use XLNC Cars for client visits regularly. The vehicles are always spotless and the drivers are properly turned out — it reflects well on us, not just them.”
“Hired the VIP car for a wedding and it made the whole day feel special. Punctual, professional, and the driver waited patiently through the photos.”

Whichever your airline uses — Ocean Cruise Terminal, Mayflower Cruise Terminal, QEII Cruise Terminal, City Cruise Terminal and Horizon Cruise Terminal. Give us your flight number when booking and the driver takes you to the right one. Southampton has five separate cruise terminals spread across the docks, and your ship is assigned a berth rather than a fixed terminal — the terminal on your ticket is the one thing to check before travel day.
We track it. Your driver's pickup time moves with the flight, so a delay does not mean a missed car or a second fare. For departures, tell us your flight and we work the pickup back from it.
Yes — returns are booked at the same time as the outbound and quoted together. Most Cranleigh customers book both legs at once, and the same driver often covers them.
