About Portsmouth International Port
Portsmouth International Port handles ferries and some cruise calls on the south coast. Check your sailing and check-in times and plan your pickup to arrive in good time.
A pre-booked car gives you a fixed fare and a driver who tracks traffic, which is useful with a ferry or cruise check-in cut-off.
Starting from Gatwick Airport
Gatwick is served by the M23 and the M25 and by direct rail services into central London, but a pre-booked car is often simpler when you have luggage, children, an early flight or a destination that is not on a direct line. For arrivals, add your flight number so your driver can track your landing.
