Is My Gatwick Flight from North or South Terminal? Airline-by-Airline Guide

Why Getting the Right Terminal Matters

Gatwick Airport has two separate terminals — North Terminal and South Terminal — approximately a 5-minute monorail ride apart. If you go to the wrong terminal, you'll need to catch the free inter-terminal monorail, adding 10–15 minutes and unnecessary stress, especially after a long flight with luggage.

The good news: it's easy to check in advance, and if you're booking a private transfer with us, we check for you automatically.

How to Check Your Terminal Before You Travel

There are three reliable ways to confirm your terminal:

1. Your boarding pass — always the most definitive source. It will clearly state North or South Terminal
2. Your airline's app or website — check your booking confirmation or manage booking section
3. Gatwick's official flight search at gatwickairport.com — search your flight number

Getting Between North and South Terminal

If you do need to switch terminals — or if your transfer driver needs to collect from a different terminal — the free Gatwick monorail runs 24 hours a day between both terminals. It takes just 2 minutes and departs every 3–4 minutes. Follow signs from either terminal's ground floor to the monorail station.

Where Your Driver Meets You at Each Terminal

When you book a private transfer with us, we always confirm the correct terminal for your flight. Your driver will be waiting inside the arrivals hall with a name board:

• South Terminal: Main arrivals hall on the ground floor, immediately after baggage reclaim exit and customs
• North Terminal: Arrivals hall just past the customs exit gates, before the taxi rank

We track your flight in real-time. Whether your flight is early, on time or significantly delayed, your driver will be there — at no extra charge.
