Southampton Cruise Transfers
Five cruise terminals, and knowing which one your ship is on is half the job. Embarkation, disembarkation, and the airport and hotel connections at either end.

- Heathrow and Gatwick, in both directions
- Hotels to the terminal, and terminal to onward destinations
- Planned around your check-in window or disembarkation group
- Sensible about cruise luggage
Airport Transfers
Heathrow, Gatwick and Southampton Airport, in both directions — planned around your flight time, not a timetable.
- Heathrow — all terminals
- Gatwick — North and South Terminals
- Southampton Airport (SOU) and Airport Parkway station
- Pickup planned around your flight time
- Flight number checked so you arrive at the right terminal
- Early morning and late night departures

- Southampton Airport Parkway and Southampton Central stations
- Local journeys around Southampton, however short
- Portsmouth — harbour, ferries and the Historic Dockyard
- Bournemouth, Poole and the Dorset coast
- Salisbury, Stonehenge, Winchester and across Hampshire

Why Solent Transfers
A local firm, not a national booking platform
Local drivers, local knowledge
Drivers based here, who know the roads out of the city at five in the morning and which of the five cruise terminals your ship is on.
Pickup times planned properly
We work back from your flight or your check-in window and suggest a time we are confident in.
Door to door, luggage once
Your address to the terminal entrance in one private vehicle. No sharing, no changes, no coach waiting to fill up.
A real person at the other end
Ask for a quote and we come back to you ourselves. If anything changes, message us on WhatsApp.
How it works
Three steps, and a real person at the other end
Step 1: Ask for a quote
Pickup, destination, date and time, plus anything else we should know — flight number, ship name, child seats. Two minutes.
Step 2: We send you a price within two hours
By phone or email, with the pickup time agreed. Your journey is booked once we have confirmed it — not before.
Step 3: Your driver collects you
At the agreed time, door to door. If anything changes beforehand, message us on WhatsApp.
About us
Southampton drivers, Southampton journeys
Solent Transfers is a private hire service based around Southampton and the Solent, covering Hampshire, Dorset and Wiltshire. Licensed by Southampton City Council.
Airport and cruise work is where the local knowledge shows: which terminal a ship is berthed at, how the roads behave at five in the morning, how long a disembarkation morning really takes.
Questions
Common questions
Is my journey confirmed as soon as I submit the form?
No. The form sends us a quote request. We come back to you by phone or email with the price and the details, and your journey is booked once we have confirmed it.
How far in advance should I book?
The earlier the better, particularly for early morning airport runs and cruise turnaround days. If your journey is soon, message us on WhatsApp and we will tell you quickly whether we can cover it.
Do you only do airport and cruise transfers?
No. Airport and cruise work is what we are asked for most, but we also cover local runs, stations, hotels, hospitals, weddings and events. No journey is too short to ask about.
Can you quote for a journey that is not one of the routes listed?
Yes. The routes shown are simply the ones we are asked for most often. We cover Hampshire, Dorset and Wiltshire and longer one-off journeys — put any pickup and destination in the form.
Can you provide child seats?
Tell us how many children are travelling and their ages in the additional details, and we will confirm what we can arrange.
What if I need to change or cancel my booking?
Message us on WhatsApp or call as early as you can, quoting your booking reference, and we will sort it out.
