Fixed-price transfers to and from London City

London City is the capital's business airport, tucked into the Royal Docks in East London with a short runway and a famously steep approach over the Thames. It handles around 3.5 million passengers a year, mostly on BA CityFlyer and other short-haul routes, and its compact terminal gets you from kerb to gate faster than any other London airport.

The DLR is handy if you are travelling light to Bank or Canary Wharf, but a fixed-fare car wins the moment you add luggage, colleagues or a home address beyond the Docklands. We time pickups to the actual wheels-down, and because LCY turns passengers around quickly, drivers are briefed to be in position early.

Where we meet you at London City

Your driver stands just inside the arrivals exit with a name board — the terminal is compact, so you will spot them within seconds of clearing baggage reclaim.

Terminals: Main Terminal

  • Kerb-to-gate at London City can genuinely be under 20 minutes — it is the one London airport where a tight schedule is survivable.
  • The airport closes overnight and has restricted weekend hours, so the last pickups of the day cluster around 10pm — book ahead rather than chancing a rank.
  • Any set-down cost at the terminal forecourt is included in our fixed quotes — nothing to settle on the day.

London City transfer FAQs

How much is a taxi from London City Airport to central London?

Quotes are calculated on your exact postcode, shown in the booking form before you commit, and never change afterwards — an evening pickup costs the same as a midday one.

Where does my driver wait at London City Airport?

Just inside the arrivals exit with a name board — LCY's terminal is small, so there is no long walk or hunting through crowds. Contact details are texted to you ahead of landing.

Should I take the DLR or a taxi from London City?

Travelling alone with hand luggage to Bank or Canary Wharf, the DLR is hard to beat. With suitcases, colleagues or a destination away from a DLR stop, a fixed-fare car is the faster and calmer door-to-door option.

Can I get a late pickup from London City Airport?

Yes, up to the last arrivals of the evening — LCY closes overnight, so final flights land by around 10pm and we schedule drivers against the actual arrival time. Evening fares are the same as daytime ones.
