Folkestone to Heathrow: route, distance and journey time

Approximate road distance

Approximately 97 miles

Indicative driving time

Approximately 1 hour 40 minutes, depending on traffic

Usual route option

M20, M26 and M25, then terminal access roads

A typical motorway route follows the M20 past Ashford and Maidstone, the M26 and the southern M25 towards Heathrow. The final exit and approach depend on whether you need Terminal 2, 3, 4 or 5. Different terminals can change both the distance and journey time.

These are planning ranges from Folkestone, not a live traffic estimate or a guaranteed arrival time. Your pickup address, terminal, route choice and traffic can change the mileage and duration. Rush-hour traffic, roadworks and crossing delays may extend the journey beyond this range.

Allow additional time for your airline’s check-in and security requirements. The driving time above does not include check-in, security, stops or airport waiting. We agree your pickup time when confirming the booking.
