One-Way Transfer
A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the terminal to Brentwood Cathedral on Ingrave Road, the airport to a home by Thorndon Country Park, or a flat near Brentwood station to Southend Airport for a lunchtime flight. Coming in, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time; going out, you set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.
Round-Trip Service
Round-Trip Service books both directions in one reservation: from a house in Shenfield to Southend Airport for a holiday in the sun, and back from the terminal to Shenfield when you return. Around Christmas and Easter, local cars are reserved early, so it helps to hold both journeys in one booking. With both directions in one booking, the return is secured from the start; you set both pick-up times yourself, and the confirmation lists them.
Hourly Service
Hourly service keeps one chauffeur and one vehicle with you for a set number of hours. When you book, you set the start at SEN, the final address and the hours you need, and you add the day's plan to the reservation so the chauffeur has it before your flight lands. It suits an arrival day with appointments, not a straight run to one hotel.

London Southend Airport to Brentwood: Route and Drive Time

Brentwood lies at the western end of Essex, next to junction 28 of the M25, and the airport is at the eastern end of the same county. The drive between them is 20 miles, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes, west across south Essex towards the M25.

Within the borough, the address matters. Shenfield, with its station, is on the north-east side of the town; the High Street and Brentwood station form the centre; Brentwood Cathedral is on Ingrave Road; Thorndon Country Park lies to the south and Weald Country Park to the north-west. Journey times vary with traffic and weather.

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London Southend Airport

Southend's one terminal has a railway station a short walk away, and its trains run up the line through Billericay to Shenfield, where the line joins the main line into London. Shenfield is part of the Borough of Brentwood, so the rail trip ends at the edge of the town, with a change or a car for the rest.

When you land, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

With a car there is no change at Shenfield and no second ride from the station, which is the difference with cases, children or a late arrival.

Arriving at Your Address in Brentwood

Homes in Shenfield or around the High Street need just a street and house number. For a home on a lane near Weald Country Park or Thorndon Country Park, add the house name, as some properties there go by name.

Give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up.

Visitors to Brentwood Cathedral, the Roman Catholic cathedral on Ingrave Road, can use the cathedral as the destination. If a commuter needs collecting from Shenfield station once you have landed, book that as a separate trip starting at the station.

From Brentwood Back to London Southend Airport

Heading back east, budget 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes; with a bag to drop before a morning flight, work from the longer figure. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

With one terminal at Southend, the car needs no terminal number from you.

If you are flying out on the morning of a big event at the Brentwood Centre, leave earlier if your home is near the arena, in case the roads around it fill before the doors open.
