In short
The journey from Southampton Airport to Bath is 64 miles and takes 1 hr 40 min to 2 hr 5 min by road, via M25 to M4, then A46.
Landing at Southampton Airport and heading for Bath? It is 64 miles by road, roughly 1 hr 40 min to 2 hr 5 min, and a driver waiting in arrivals removes the part of the day most people dread — luggage, connections and a station you have never used.
The journey
Single small terminal; the walk from the aircraft to the car is one of the shortest in the UK. If the flight moves, the pickup moves with it — you are not paying for a car that left without you.
The route runs M25 to M4, then A46 — 64 miles in total, around 1 hr 40 min to 2 hr 5 min depending on traffic and time of day. One driver, one car, no changes and no connections to miss.
One optional stop at Membury. At 64 miles this is a single-leg run for most passengers, though we will stop whenever you ask.
We drop wherever you need in and around Bath — the Roman Baths, the Royal Crescent, Bath Spa station and Bath city centre are all regular destinations. Door to door, with luggage carried to the entrance.
Meeting you
Single small terminal; the walk from the aircraft to the car is one of the shortest in the UK. We track your flight from take-off, so if you land early or late the pickup time moves with it. It is a short hop from the cruise terminals, which is why a large share of its traffic is passengers connecting to or from a ship rather than flying onward.

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.”

We quote a fixed price before you book, based on the vehicle class and the time of travel, and it does not change if the traffic is bad. Call 01483 310310 or send the journey details through the booking form for a firm figure.
Directly at your destination address in Bath. Bath actively discourages cars in the centre and has a clean-air zone, so being dropped at the door and collected later beats hunting for parking.
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 Southampton Airport customers book both legs at once, and the same driver often covers them.
