Hello 2026 🎆 Easy Booking, Fair Prices, Same Friendly AD Service

Posted: 01/01/2026

New year, fresh miles. As those fireworks fade, we’re rolling into 2026 with exactly what AD does best: fair pricing, friendly drivers and cars that make every journey feel simple. Whether it’s a dawn run to Heathrow, a Portsmouth cruise day, a Winchester dinner, or a family trip from Barton-on-Sea through Burley and Lyndhurst, our aim is the same—turn travel jobs into easy wins.

This year you’ll notice small upgrades that make a big difference. Our online Bookings flow is slicker and quicker; confirmations are clearer; reminders are smarter. Need a bigger boot or extra doors for the school-run reunion? Pick the right fit under Vehicles and we’ll configure the layout before we arrive. If you’re comparing train vs car, chat to us via Contact Us and we’ll map the timing and costs honestly—no faff, no hidden extras.

AD is the “great value, done properly” option in Hampshire. We’re less formal than some, but we’re serious about standards: tidy cars, safe driving and polite, helpful service. From Airport Transfers and Cruise Transfers to Business Travel, Leisure Travel, Event Travel and Wedding Chauffleur (yes, we can do the smart stuff too), we’ll get you there without the drama. Scroll for what’s new, how we keep prices fair, and the best ways to book for 2026.

What’s new at AD in 2026 (the quick list)

  • Faster online booking. The Bookings form is leaner, mobile-friendly, and saves your key info for next time.

  • Clear, fair pricing. Quotes itemise the bits that can change (e.g., airport forecourt fees) so you know exactly what’s what.

  • Right-sized vehicles. From comfy saloons to roomy Luxury MPVs, pick under Vehicles and we’ll match passengers + luggage to the perfect setup.

  • Local knowledge baked in. We plan around New Forest animals, weekend events, and sports traffic—because ten minutes saved is priceless.

The AD way: value without the corners cut

Value isn’t the lowest number; it’s the best outcome for the money. Our recipe:

  1. Sensible routes. We check live traffic, weather and roadworks, then set realistic ETAs.

  2. Clean, tidy cars. Predictably clean cabins and boots that actually take your luggage.

  3. Helpful humans. Courteous drivers, luggage help, clear comms on approach.

  4. Transparency. If a charge applies (e.g., Heathrow forecourt, currently ÂŁ7), we say so up front and time arrivals to avoid extras.

Where we’re busiest (and why people book AD)

  • Airport Transfers. Heathrow, Gatwick, Southampton, Farnborough and beyond. Early starts are our natural habitat. We message on approach so you’re not watching the street in your socks.

  • Cruise Transfers. Southampton and Portsmouth handled daily: clever timing, short walks, calm drop-offs. Porter hand-offs where permitted—just ask.

  • Business Travel. One-way, wait-and-return, or multi-stop. Quiet cabins, phone charging and drivers who understand diaries.

  • Leisure Travel. London days, shopping trips, concerts, golf, or a wine tour—tell us the vibe, we’ll make it flow.

  • Event Travel. Big crowds? We pre-plan exits so you’re not trapped in the car park.

  • Wedding Chauffeur. Smart cars, on-time arrivals, and guest shuttles that keep your day on schedule.

Local routes we know like the back of our hands

AD covers the whole of Hampshire and the New Forest—Barton-on-Sea, Burley, Lyndhurst, Ringwood, Romsey, Winchester, Havant, Portsmouth, Bournemouth and Southampton. New Forest tip: animals roam year-round; we drive gently and leave extra space, especially at dawn and dusk. It’s calmer, safer and often quicker overall.

Pricing that makes sense in 2026

  • Straight quotes. Your fare includes the driving you’ve asked for; if you request short-stay parking or extra waiting, we simply add what’s needed and confirm before it applies.

  • Airport/Charges. Major hubs charge to set down (e.g., Heathrow ÂŁ7). We hit the right window so you pay only what’s necessary.

  • Wait-and-return math. Staying an hour? We price it fairly vs two singles—just ask in Contact Us or note it in Bookings.

Choosing the right vehicle (and why it matters)

  • Saloon / Estate. Perfect for 1–3 travellers with normal luggage; estates love long cases.

  • Luxury MPV. Flexible seating for families, groceries, prams and grandparents.

  • Large MPV. Space for up to 6–8 with bags; sliding doors make life easy at hotels and terminals.
    Tell us the headcount + suitcases in Bookings and we’ll configure the boot in advance (yes, that makes a real difference at 4:30am).

Real itineraries we’re booking already

  • Barton-on-Sea → Heathrow T5 (early). Pick-up with a coffee stop at Rownhams if needed; forecourt set-down inside your slot so the ÂŁ7 fee stays ÂŁ7.

  • Winchester → Portsmouth International Port. Calm drop-off with porter hand-off; return the following week—driver tracks the ship and messages location as you clear customs.

  • Lyndhurst → London (concert). Door-to-door to the venue, pre-planned exit route, and a smooth ride home while everyone else hunts to find what's available at the last minute.
