How the day runs
You are collected from the village itself, not a station or a car park. A luxury people-carrier suits a family and the luggage. Pick-up is timed from your flight: 26 minutes for the road, then whatever the airline asks for. The same run from Hatfield is 33 minutes; from Welwyn Garden City, 31 minutes. Landing at Luton, you are met in the arrivals hall; the chauffeur has followed the flight. Ravensley is based in Oxford; reaching Welwyn takes 1 hour 12 minutes.
