Pre-book a door-to-door transfer to or from London City Airport with a fare based on your exact route, vehicle and luggage needs. Suitable for Canary Wharf, the City, Central London, hotels, homes and onward airport connections.

Use the supplied meeting details
Airport to the address entered
London City Airport is around five miles from the City of London and has its own DLR station, so public transport can be efficient for passengers travelling light to a destination close to the network.
A pre-booked transfer is most useful when you need one vehicle to a specific hotel, office or home; have luggage that makes changes awkward; are travelling with colleagues or family; or must continue to another airport. London road times vary sharply, so the destination and pickup time matter more than a single “to Central London” estimate.
Use London City Airport (LCY), not a generic London airport

Confirm airport fees, waiting time, meet and greet, charging-zone costs and cancellation terms before stating that they are included.
LCY has one passenger terminal, but “meet at the airport” is not enough detail for a smooth private-hire collection. After landing, passengers may still need time for immigration, baggage reclaim and assistance.
Add the correct flight number and a mobile contact. Then follow the meeting point and contact instructions in the confirmed booking rather than assuming the driver will use the public taxi rank outside the terminal.
Landing, reaching the stand, border processing and baggage collection are separate stages.
Black cabs use the rank outside the terminal; a pre-booked driver follows the collection arrangement provided.
A working contact number helps if the passenger and driver need to coordinate after arrival.
LCY is unusually well connected for a small airport. The right option depends on the final address, luggage, number of passengers and whether certainty before landing matters.
Practical comparison of common onward travel options.
| Option | Often best for | Price approach | What to account for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-booked transfer | Door-to-door travel, groups, luggage and airport connections | Fare confirmed for the booked journey | Meeting instructions and verified inclusions |
| DLR/public transport | Solo travellers near a convenient station | Public transport fare | Changes, stairs/lifts, walking and service status |
| Black cab | On-demand travel from the terminal rank | Metered according to applicable tariff | Traffic, time, distance and final metered fare |
The useful part of a route transfer is knowing what is included before you arrive at Heathrow.
The existing site advertises 60 minutes for airport pickups. Confirm when it starts and what happens after it expires.
Arrival flights are monitored so the collection can respond to an early or delayed landing.
The existing service states that support is available 24/7. Confirm the live telephone, chat and messaging channels.
The published cancellation policy currently describes fee-free cancellation when sufficient notice is given.
The booking process states that customers can pay by credit or debit card before receiving confirmation.
