About London City Airport

London City Airport is an international airport in the Royal Docks in East London, around 6 miles east of the City of London and about 3 miles east of Canary Wharf. Its location makes it a practical airport for business travellers, city hotel guests, Docklands passengers and short-haul European journeys.

The airport has one passenger terminal and a single runway. Because London City Airport is close to Central London and operates with a shorter runway and steep approach procedures, it is used by selected aircraft types and is known for quick access to Canary Wharf, the City and East London.

Pre-booking a London City Airport taxi helps keep the journey simple, especially for early flights, business travel, hotel pickups, luggage requirements and arrivals where your driver needs to meet you directly in the Arrivals Hall by the WH Smith store.
