Taxis In Shirley: Common Questions
Common questions about our taxi service in Shirley, Southampton.

About 10 minutes on the A35 to Tremona Road, and we cover the hospital site as a matter of course. We book return journeys to match appointment times and will wait if a clinic overruns rather than leaving you at the doors.
About 16 minutes on the A35 and the M27 to Junction 8, at one fixed fare. Because Shirley is our home area, we can usually confirm a car for an early flight very quickly, and we set the pickup from your check-in time.
