Liverpool Street Station to London City Airport Private Transfer

Liverpool Street to LCY in one car

This departure transfer picks you up at Liverpool Street Station, or at a hotel, office or flat in the surrounding City of London, and takes you east to London City Airport (LCY) in the Royal Docks. London City is the closest of the London airports to the City, so this is a short airport run, but it still crosses busy East London roads. The road distance and time estimate shown on this page are live values from current route data, not figures fixed in this text. Each price covers the whole vehicle and is confirmed before you book.

Getting picked up around Liverpool Street

The station sits in a dense block of offices and hotels, with several entrances and traffic restrictions on the surrounding streets. Rather than writing just "Liverpool Street", give the exact pickup address or the station entrance you will wait at, plus a contact number. If you are leaving from an office or hotel nearby, that building's address is usually the simplest place to be collected.

When to book your pickup

Start from the time your airline wants you at the airport, add the live road estimate and allow a margin for City and Docklands traffic. London City is a single-terminal airport and the car stops at its departures entrance, so there is no terminal transfer to plan for. Early pickups outside normal working hours can be booked; choose the time that suits your own flight rather than relying on a fixed rule. The booking confirmation sets out the pickup arrangements and any waiting terms for the selected service.

Picking the right vehicle

Travellers on short business trips often have cabin bags only, and a saloon or executive saloon is enough for one or two of them. Colleagues travelling together, families and anyone with hold luggage should compare the estate, MPV and larger categories, checking the luggage limit as well as the seat count. A child seat can be requested during booking. Cancellation and refund terms follow the conditions displayed for the selected service and recorded in your confirmation.

Car or DLR to the airport?

London City Airport has its own DLR station, reached on trains from Bank. Liverpool Street itself has no DLR platform, so starting there by rail means first getting to Bank, which is fine with a small bag but awkward with cases or children. A private car goes straight from your pickup point to the departures entrance with no change. The arrival direction, from London City Airport to Liverpool Street Station, has a separate route page.
