Being sandwiched between the M1 and the A41 is Hendon's defining feature for anyone booking an airport transfer — it gives genuinely good access both to Luton in one direction and Heathrow in the other, which is a luxury most parts of London don't have. Our drivers treat that as the area's main selling point, well ahead of the university or Brent Cross.
Heathrow typically takes 30 to 40 minutes off-peak via the A41 and A40, a reasonably direct run that avoids most of central London's congestion by staying on the western fringe of the city.
Gatwick is a different story entirely — 65 to 75 minutes via the A406, A3 and M25, since it means crossing the whole of London rather than the shorter local hops either Heathrow or Luton offer, and we treat it as a genuinely different kind of journey requiring more planning.
Luton is comparably convenient at 30 to 40 minutes via the M1, roughly matching the Heathrow run in length. Stansted and London City both mean crossing more of London and go out as flight-tracked fixed prices given how much the exact route can vary with traffic.
Both the Heathrow and Luton fares reflect how genuinely short those runs are — we're not pricing Hendon like a typical outer-London postcode with one convenient airport and the rest as an afterthought. Gatwick, Stansted and London City are priced honestly for the distance they actually involve.
Whichever of the two closer airports you're flying back into, expect a driver who's timed the pickup around your actual landing rather than a rough guess, adjusting automatically for any delay.
Saloons cover the short Heathrow and Luton hops easily; estates and MPVs come out for the longer Gatwick, Stansted and London City bookings, particularly when there's extra luggage or a family travelling together.
Few areas give you a genuine choice between two convenient airports the way Hendon does — that flexibility alone is worth booking locally for, whichever one your flight happens to use. Regular travellers often find they end up using both over time.
