Luton to London City Airport Taxi – Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Luton to London City taxis. More on our FAQ page.
How much does a taxi from Luton Airport to London City Airport cost?
Your fare is fixed and displayed in the price table above, beginning with the saloon and rising by vehicle size. It is an all-in figure with no surge pricing or meter, so the number you see when you book is exactly what you pay, whatever the North Circular is doing on the day.
How long does the Luton Airport to London City transfer take?
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. Almost the whole journey runs on the M1, the A406 North Circular and the A13, so outside the morning and evening peaks the timing is dependable, and your driver adds a sensible buffer for the North Circular before a tight City connection.
What is the best route between the two airports?
The standard run leaves Luton on the M1 southbound, joins the A406 North Circular, and finishes on the A13 into the Royal Docks at London City. When the North Circular is heavily congested, an experienced driver may use alternative links around the busiest sections to keep your onward departure within reach.
Do you collect from the Luton Airport hotels and the DART as well as the terminal?
Yes. We pick up inside Luton’s single terminal with meet & greet, and we also collect from the short-stay pick-up zone, the DART link at Luton Airport Parkway, and the on-airport hotels such as the Holiday Inn, ibis and Courtyard by Marriott.
