Every fare is the full all-in total, including the London City drop-off charge. Fixed at booking — it doesn't change with traffic, time of day or the route taken. Prices are per car, not per person.

What's included

  • Fixed price, in writing. The meter never runs; no airport surcharge or card fee.
  • Meet & greet. Your driver waits in arrivals with a name board.
  • Free waiting on the return. We track your inbound flight, so a delay just moves your pickup — no extra charge.
  • Licensed, DBS-checked drivers, 24/7. Including the earliest departures.

The journey & pickup

It's about 11 miles — A118 → A13 → London City — typically around 28 Minutes. Traffic near the airport can add time at peak, so for an early flight we'll suggest a pickup that clears the worst of it; for arrivals we hold the car until you're through the hall.

We collect across Romford and nearby — Romford, Gidea Park, Hornchurch, Collier Row, Rush Green and the surrounding RM postcodes. We serve London City's single terminal; give us your terminal and flight number when you book and the driver takes you to the right door.

The taxi fare is per car. For two or more travellers — or any early-morning or late-night flight — a fixed car usually beats multiple legs with luggage.
