Tips & Hints about London City Airport Taxis

General Tips

London City Airport taxis are metered, so ensure that the taximeter is reset and turned on as soon as you enter the cab. If you’re traveling on a budget, avoid opting for luxury vehicle transfers, as these tend to be more expensive than regular taxis. While London City airport taxis can be pricier than typical city taxis, you can also opt for regular taxis by walking outside the airport terminal to flag one down or calling a local cab service.

Safety and Regulations

Always choose a taxi from the official taxi ranks at London City Airport to avoid potential overcharging by unauthorized drivers. Official taxis at the airport are regulated and identifiable by their distinctive branding and licensing. Make sure the taxi is clearly marked with the official logo of the local taxi service to ensure safety and compliance with local regulations.

Comfort and Convenience

The majority of London City Airport taxis are modern, well-maintained, and come equipped with air conditioning for a comfortable ride. Ridesharing services are also available at the airport for added convenience. Most taxi drivers are proficient in English and are familiar with the city's layout, making it easier for international visitors to navigate London and beyond.

Additional Tips

Drivers in London are known for being efficient, but you may experience quicker driving in certain areas. As street names can sometimes be tricky to find, it's helpful to provide nearby landmarks, city attractions, or hotel names when stating your destination. While tipping is optional, it is appreciated as a gesture of goodwill for good service.

Arrive at the Airport on Time

It is important to plan ahead for travel through London City Airport and other major airports. We recommend that passengers check in at least two to three hours before their departure to ensure a smooth journey. Make sure all your travel documents are valid and that you have everything prepared before arriving at the airport. While arriving too early can cause unnecessary congestion, it's better to be slightly early than risk missing your flight. If you don't have luggage to check and you've already checked in online, you can give yourself less time. The security process at London City is efficient, and it should take no longer than 10–15 minutes to get through, even during busy periods.
