Getting to Stansted Airport from Cambridge should be the easiest part of your trip, not the part that has you watching the clock and refreshing traffic apps at 4 a.m. At ASSA Cars, we run a professional Cambridge to Stansted Airport taxi service built around one simple promise: you arrive on time, in comfort, without surprises on the fare.
The journey covers 31 miles down the M11, typically taking 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic. We've been driving this route for years, which means our chauffeurs know exactly when to leave to beat rush-hour congestion at Junction 8, where the slowdowns usually happen, and which alternative routes save real time when the motorway grinds to a halt. That local knowledge is the difference between catching your flight and standing in a customer service queue rebooking it.
Get a QuoteWe're not the cheapest minicab in Cambridge, and we don't try to be. What we offer is the airport transfer experience where frequent flyers, business travellers, and discerning families actually want a service where the price you're quoted is the price you pay, the car that turns up is clean and modern, and the driver is professional from the first hello to the boot being closed.
We match the vehicle to the journey, not the other way around. Choose from:
1–3 passengers, 2 large cases. Comfortable, fuel-efficient, ideal for solo travellers, couples, or business trips. Our standard option, and the one most Cambridge travellers book.
1–3 passengers, 2 large cases. Premium vehicles, typically Mercedes E-Class, BMW 5 Series or equivalent with leather interiors. The right choice for client meetings, corporate transfers, or when you simply want a more refined start to your trip.
1–4 passengers, 3 large cases. Extra luggage space without stepping up to an MPV. Good for families travelling lighter or business trips with sample cases and equipment.
1–6 passengers, 5 large cases. For families and small groups. Plenty of space for everyone plus luggage, child seats available on request at no extra charge.
1–6 passengers. Mercedes V-Class or similar — when you need space and the premium feel. Popular for corporate group transfers and special occasions.
1–8 passengers. The right answer for larger family groups, sports teams, or corporate parties travelling together.
