Your price from Castle Cary
Your postcode and when you need collecting, and the price is on the screen straight away - the exact figure for your part of Castle Cary, not a range. Nothing is booked until you say so.
What time will I pick you up?
Work back from the flight. Bristol asks you to be there two hours before a European departure, three for long haul, and the run from Castle Cary takes about 55 minutes with empty roads - which is what you get at four in the morning. For a 06:15 departure that means leaving your door at around 03:00.
The box above wants the time you want collecting, not the time you fly. If you would rather work back from the flight, send me the flight and I'll work the pickup out for you - I do it every week.
