Coach
On the coach: National Express, routed via London Victoria with an onward connection, a very long journey with a change in central London, at £30-55pp.

Plymouth to London City Transfers for Every Kind of Trip
Business & Short-Haul Travel
London City is Britain’s business airport, built for short-haul European routes and the quick hop into Canary Wharf and the City, and Plymouth professionals heading that way value a car that removes the connections.
Family Holidays
Travelling from Plymstock or Mannamead with children and a boot full of cases is far simpler in one car than across a long-distance train and the Elizabeth line.

How much does a taxi from Plymouth to London City Airport cost?
Your fare is fixed and shown in the price table above, starting with the saloon and rising by vehicle size. It is an all-in figure with no surge pricing, so the price shown above is the price you pay, whatever the traffic on a long journey like this one.
How long does the Plymouth to London City journey take?
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. It is a long run from the far South West along the A38 and the motorway network into the Royal Docks, so your driver plans the departure with a comfortable buffer built in and keeps an eye on the M5 and M25 to protect your check-in time.
What is the best route from Plymouth to London City Airport?
The standard run follows the A38 Devon Expressway east to the M5, then the M4, the M25 and the A13 into the Royal Docks and up to the terminal. When the motorways are heavy, an experienced driver adjusts the approach into east London on the day to keep the journey moving.
