When Would Express Cabs Ask You To Plan Ahead?

Even with 24/7 service, busy periods can stretch availability. Friday and Saturday nights, match days, Christmas, bank holidays, airport mornings, weddings, and school runs are best booked early.

For flights, weddings, contracts, minibuses, or coaches, we recommend booking as early as possible once your times are confirmed. Early school or airport runs from Loose should be in the system the night before, not minutes before pickup.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a taxi take to reach Loose?

From our Upper Stone Street base, the village is roughly a 5 to 10 minute drive, depending on the A229. Vehicle availability depends on active bookings and traffic at the time. With GPS dispatch, the closest available driver gets the job, which is often one already in a position to finish a previous ride. The app supports booking and taxi tracking once the booking is active.

Express Cabs offers school transport for Maidstone and the surrounding schools. Loose Primary School is on Loose Road, and Express Cabs offers school transport for the surrounding schools.

School-run contracts run on a fixed weekly schedule with the same driver where possible.

What if a Gatwick flight is delayed?

Express Taxis tracks airport transfer information, so the team can see flight delays. After landing, the first 90 minutes of waiting at the terminal are included in the airport transfer price. Beyond that, waiting time runs at £7.50 per 15 minutes. The driver will message through the app once they are in the pickup zone.
