Licensed black cabs are available from the taxi rank located directly outside the terminal building. These taxis are metered and accept major credit and debit cards. Pre-booking is not required.
Major car rental companies, including Avis, Budget, Europcar, and Hertz, have desks located inside the terminal. It is recommended to book in advance for the best rates. Cars are collected from the on-site car park, a short walk from the terminal.
The airport has its own station on the Docklands Light Railway (DLR), which is connected to the terminal. The DLR provides a quick link to the London Underground network at Canning Town, Stratford, and Bank stations. Local bus routes (473 and 474) also serve the airport, connecting to nearby areas like Stratford and Canning Town. Payment for both DLR and buses is typically done via an Oyster card or a contactless payment card/device.
London City Airport is a regional airport in London, England. It is located in the Royal Docks in the Borough of Newham, approximately 6 miles east of the City of London and 3 miles east of Canary Wharf. These are the twin centres of London's financial industry, which is a major user of the airport. The airport was developed by the engineering company Mowlem in 1986–87. In 2016 it was bought by a Canadian-led consortium of Alberta Investment Management Corporation, OMERS, the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan and Wren House Infrastructure Management of the Kuwait Investment Authority.
London City Airport has a single 1,508-metre long runway, and a CAA Public Use Aerodrome Licence that allows flights for the public transport of passengers; this licence also allows training flights, but only for the purpose of training pilots to operate at this specific airport. Only multi-engine, fixed-wing aircraft up to Airbus A318 size with special aircraft and aircrew certification to fly 5.5° approaches are allowed to conduct operations at London City Airport.
London City had over 4.5 million passenger movements in 2017. It is the fifth-busiest airport by passengers and aircraft movements serving the London area — after Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and Luton — and was the 14th-busiest in the UK in 2017. In 2019, the airport handled over 5 million passengers.
Little airport with a big price tag, Fantastically convenient but heavy on the pound!
Metal buried under the runways at London City airport is causing serious anomalies for magnetic compasses:
