London City Airport Transfers for Business Travellers
LCY is especially well positioned for passengers travelling to London's major commercial districts.
The airport is less than six miles from the City of London and has direct connections into London's Docklands transport network.
Transport for London states that the DLR journey to London City Airport takes approximately 18 minutes from Canary Wharf and 22 minutes from Bank.
A private airport taxi offers a different advantage: direct transport between the terminal and your exact office, hotel, meeting venue or home without carrying luggage between trains or stations.
Our executive transfer options are suitable for passengers travelling between LCY and areas such as:
Minicabs from London City Airport to Central London
Book a minicab from London City Airport when you want to travel directly from the terminal to your final destination.
Instead of changing between the DLR, Underground, rail services or buses, your pre-booked car takes you directly to the address entered during booking.
London City Airport has its own DLR station, with a lift connecting the station platforms and airport terminal, so public transport remains a useful alternative when it better suits your journey.
Executive Cars and Chauffeur Transfers at LCY
Choose an executive London City Airport transfer when your journey requires additional comfort, presentation or privacy.
Executive cars are well suited to corporate passengers, client collections, directors, overseas visitors, conference delegates and travellers heading directly from LCY to a business meeting.
A pre-booked chauffeur service can also be arranged for journeys between London City Airport and hotels, offices, financial districts, event venues and private addresses.
For corporate bookings, provide the passenger's name, flight details, destination and any meet-and-greet requirements when making the reservation.
London City Airport Group Transfers
Travelling with colleagues, friends or family? Select a larger airport vehicle rather than booking several separate cars.
Depending on the vehicles available through your booking system, larger minicabs can accommodate additional passengers and luggage while keeping the group together.
Before confirming a group booking, check:
- Number of adults and children
- Number of large suitcases
- Number of cabin bags
- Pushchairs or mobility equipment
- Child-seat requirements
- Any oversized items
This is particularly important for airport journeys because passenger capacity and luggage capacity are not always the same.
London City Airport to London and the Royal Docks
London City Airport is based in the Royal Docks, making it convenient for passengers attending exhibitions, conferences and business events in this part of East London. The airport's registered location is Royal Docks, London E16 2PB.
Pre-booked taxis can provide direct transfers between LCY and hotels, event venues, offices and residential addresses throughout the Royal Docks.
This can be especially helpful for exhibitors or business travellers carrying presentation equipment, samples or several pieces of luggage.
London City Airport or Public Transport?
London City Airport is well connected by public transport. Its own DLR station provides links into the wider TfL network, with trains serving destinations including Bank, Stratford and Canary Wharf.
A private taxi or minicab may be more convenient when you need door-to-door transport, have several passengers, carry heavy luggage, travel with children, have mobility requirements, or need to reach an address that is not directly beside a rail station.
