Is the Gatwick drop-off charge included?

Yes. Gatwick Airport charges £10 for up to 10 minutes, then £1 a minute to a 30 minute maximum at the terminal drop-off zone and our fixed fares already include it, so there is nothing extra to pay the driver.

Where will the driver meet me at Gatwick for the journey back to Stepney?

Gatwick asks private hire drivers to use the Short Stay car parks, so your driver parks there and meets you in Arrivals just past the customs exit with a name board. Pickups from the airport are £12 more than drop-offs because the price includes the car park: at Gatwick, Short Stay costs £8 for up to 30 minutes and £14 for up to an hour. The driver tracks your flight, so a delay does not cost you anything.
