TEMPORARY CHANGES ...

Due to new Taxi Licensing policies, we have had to change our vehicle. We will temporarily be using a Toyota Prius, which only carries up to 4 passengers and is not suitable for wheelchair users. We're hoping this will only last no more than 5 weeks, and should not affect any bookings already made.

For anyone needing a wheelchair taxi, we recommend using Station Taxis, who now offer a pre-booking service. Their number is (01904) 623332.

We will let you know when we have our 6-seater and wheelchair friendly vehicle back.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Unfortunately, we have had to make the difficult decision to amend our prices. This is due to the costs of parking increasing at the airports and administration costs also increasing with our local authority. You will find that our fixed prices are still heavily discounted from what would be the metered cost.

Rest assured that we will still offer the same great service in our 6-seater, wheelchair-friendly London black cab, with a complimentary bottle of water to quench your thirst en route.

We appreciate all your business and thank our current customers for your continued support.

Please don't hesitate to leave us a review on our page.

One customer dropped off. While awaiting for my return customer I thought I'll pop back to the visitor centre. Becoming a little side hobby this.

Just dropped off at Manchester airport. Thought I'll pop to the visitor centre cafe while I await my next customers. Well what can I say it's mental watching these planes land and take off. Didnt realise Manchester Airport was so busy.

We know a lot of you don't even want to think about this yet, but we've opened our Christmas & Boxing Day diaries and we are taking bookings!
Please note that we will not be able to take same-day bookings on these days.
Please also note that we currently have availability for New Year's Eve, up to 7pm. We do not work after this due to our own traditional family commitments, but we open again at 12noon on New Year's Day.
We look forward to hearing from you!

It's been awhile since we last posted, we've been extremely busy with airport runs. AJ is busy creating a new website for Hartley-Smith Travel so customers can book online. Christmas day booking calendar is been released in the next few days. We are wheelchair and pet friendly and occasionally people friendly 😉, 6 seater local taxi.

After careful consideration, and to enable us to keep our prices down, we are changing our pick-up/drop-off point at Leeds-Bradford Airport. This will now be at the free car park, which is approximately a 5 minute walk from the main terminal building.

We are happy to assist you with any luggage, or if you feel like you need guidance to the terminal building.

If you would like to be picked up or dropped off in our usual spot (in the paid car park outside the terminal building), then, unfortunately, there will be an additional charge to cover the parking fee. Leeds-Bradford are currently charging £7 for 0-10 minutes.

We understand how important it is to maintain affordable pricing, so we wanted to offer this choice to our customers rather than raise our rates across the board.

NB. Existing bookings will not be affected and the price quoted will include the car park charge.
