London Stansted Airport (STN) is one of the UK’s busiest airports, handling more than 28 million passengers a year on the back of a huge low-cost network led by Ryanair, easyJet, and Jet2. It sits 37 miles north-east of London on the M11. One change to note for 2026: on 19 March, Stansted’s Express Set Down charge jumped from £7 to £10 — a 40% rise that makes it joint-most expensive in the UK alongside Gatwick.

London Airport Taxi publishes clear Stansted taxi prices so you always know the fare before you book — no surge pricing, no metered fares, no hidden extras. Every Stansted fare includes meet & greet, real-time flight tracking, 30 minutes’ free waiting, the new £10 Express Set Down charge, terminal parking, and full door-to-door service across London, Cambridge, and the home counties.

New £10 Stansted Express Set Down Charge & All Fees Included

The £10 covers the first 15 minutes; 15 to 30 minutes costs £28, with ANPR cameras enforcing payment online by midnight the next day — full details in our Stansted drop-off charge guide.

The honest breakdown: For budget solo travellers, the National Express coach from £10 is unbeatable on price. For solo travellers who value speed, the Stansted Express at £19-£25 gets you to Liverpool Street in 47 minutes non-stop. For groups of 3 or more, a pre-booked taxi becomes competitive. A £74 saloon to Central London split between 3 people is £26 each, with door-to-door service and no platform changes. For families of 4-6 with luggage, a £100 MPV-6 works out at £17-£25 per person—cheaper than four train tickets plus onward travel. Pre-booked taxis also beat Uber on price certainty—no surge, no meter, no £10 Express Set Down surprise. For the metered alternative, see our London taxi fares guide or estimate your trip with the taxi fare calculator before you travel.
