You can book your taxi at any time, we can get you a car within minutes although the longer you give us the better vehicle and driver we can allocate. When to get there? This depends on what your plan is - usually airports want you there as early as possible for commerical reasons as well as logistic. Many requent flyers are well aware of this and book our taxis so they get to the airport an hour within their scheduled flight time (not gate time). We do not recommend this, on average clearling security will take around 20-40 minutes so an hour before your gate closure time or half an hour before your bag drop time is sufficient. Others prefer to spend time at the airport, grab a coffee or have some lunch for which you will obviously need to arrive earlier for.

TL;DR
Yes! Athough children under the age of 3 may sit on an adults lap and any older must wear a seatbelt, these are the exceptions for taxis; we dont' recommend this and you can find our guidance with free car seat storage information here, you can also read the .gov official guidance .

The best and closest airport to Bedford has to be London Luton Airport, especially if you're travelling from Europe; it's approximately 28 miles from Bedford and we can usually have a car there in around 30 minutes. London Heathrow is second at around 57 miles away and obviously have more flight destinations that London Luton, but not by much. Second to last would be Stansted airport which is 54 miles from Bedford and although closer in distance is further in time. Lastly would be Gatwick airport the cost and time taken to get to this airport from Bedford is almost double that of the other airports. There are also Birmingham, London City but the ones listed here are the most popular.

If you’re going with a group or with lots of luggage, your best option is a minibus (even compared to public transport). Most minibuses can take 5-8 passengers and all your luggage including your skis and snowboards, the larger minibuses are subject to availability but are still there. More info on minibuses
