Fares
Our lovely drivers are just as happy taking you to visit Auntie Dot for a nice cuppa, as they are making sure you get to more important things on time.
We are known to all the local surgeries, hospital departments, dentists and hairdressers in Canterbury, as well as the pubs when you are out on the tiles. If you ever forget our number, just ask a friendly soul to call those wonderful chaps at Longleys. They like talking to us as much as you do. We promise.
Discounts
We decided that a discount aimed just at one part of the community was a little unfair, so we decided to make a promise to all of our customers. That promise is to give a brilliant service for the lowest possible price.... that's for everyone! That doesn't mean we don't occasionally run promotions and discounts though, because we like to add a little extra fun now and then!
Corporate Accounts
Company accounts can be arranged with Longleys quickly and easily.
We work closely with both private and public sector businesses in Canterbury, providing a reliable and professional service with a smile. Because we recognise that every business is different, we tailor our corporate accounts to your individual organisations needs. Packages usually include...
- Monthly itemised invoicing
- 30 days credit facility
- Simple secure booking by unique PIN
- No need to carry cash with you
- Journeys have a fixed pick-up to drop-off price, regardless of route or time taken
Please call the office on 01227 710777 and ask to speak to David or Steve to make an application. One or both of us will probably pop out for a chat, and see what’s best for your circumstances. We love looking after the local community, and supporting local business wherever possible.
Top ^Airport
Jetting off for two weeks in the sun, or planning an important business trip?
Either way, getting to the airport can be a stressful time - Will the cab turn up on time? What if the flight is changed overnight while I’m asleep? Will the drinks trolley stock dry-roasted peanuts?
We agree, it’s all crucial stuff.
You are in safe hands with Longleys. We carry out hundreds of Airport Transfers every month, monitoring live flight information around the clock to make sure that we get you there in good time. Some companies offer a lower price to the airport than we charge, but you are often unwittingly sharing the trip with another passenger doing the opposite journey. If one of you has a problem, you both end up in hot water. It’s not worth the risk.
Longleys always book the car just for your journey, so that we can adapt to changing circumstances quickly and efficiently.
You will also be required to cover the parking charge at the terminal, this is typically around £5.00, but when you book Longleys to collect you from the airport, we allow you 30 minutes waiting time free-of-charge. After that we charge £21.00 per hour or 35 pence per minute. We rarely resort to charging waiting time though, because our access to flight information is so good.
