Yes. The Express Pick-up and Drop-off zone opposite the terminal charges £8 per visit for up to 10 minutes. It opened on 1 March 2026 and is barrierless - ANPR cameras read your number plate and the charge is paid online by midnight the following day, not on site. When you pre-book through minicabit, your Cab operator handles the drop-off as part of the fixed fare.

Payment is made online after your visit, by midnight the following day. There are no barriers, tickets or payment machines at the zone, and you cannot pay in advance or while you are still there. Booking a pre-booked cab avoids the question entirely, as the drop-off is handled by your Cab operator.

Your driver provides Meet and Greet and waits inside the terminal in Arrivals with a name board. When you book, select your pickup point and add your flight number so your driver knows where and when to meet you.

Your driver tracks your flight for delays and arrives 30 minutes after the new landing time. minicabit includes up to 45 minutes of free waiting time on airport pickups, which covers the walk from the gate through the terminal.

Yes. You can pre-book up to 12 months ahead or on the same day, and your driver tracks your flight and adjusts for delays - so a late landing still has a named driver waiting in Arrivals at a price fixed when you booked.

Yes. minicabit offers Wheelchair-Accessible Vehicles as a bookable vehicle tier. Select "Wheelchair accessible" as your vehicle type when booking, and the system will match your booking to a suitable vehicle.

Yes. Alongside Standard and Executive cars, you can book MPVs and up to 8-seaters for larger groups or extra luggage - compare them in the same search and travel together in one vehicle.

Yes. Free cancellation through minicabit applies before the booking's cancellation cut-off time, which is shown clearly at booking. If you need to change your pickup time, you can update it online or, as a last resort, contact minicabit's 24/7 support by live chat, phone or email. Always update or cancel through minicabit rather than the Cab operator directly.

For convenience and door-to-door service, a pre-booked taxi is the most practical option - especially with luggage, for early departures and late arrivals, or when travelling as a group. The airport is just off the A127 and is also served by Southend Airport station at the terminal and by local bus routes.
