Why transfer directly between airports?
A direct taxi between Stansted and Gatwick is the most reliable option for passengers with connecting flights.
Transferring between Stansted (STN) and Gatwick (LGW) by public transport requires travelling into central London and back out again — adding 2–3 hours and significant luggage management to your journey. A direct pre-booked taxi takes the orbital route via M11 / M25 / M23, a popular route for passengers with connecting flights.
