Margate airport taxi
Margate and the rest of Thanet are a long way from every London airport, which is exactly why a fixed-price car is popular: the alternative is an hour and a half on the train into London and a second journey out again. Pickups cover Margate, Cliftonville, Westgate and Birchington.
