View Full Fleet arrow_forwardHow does a private London City Airport to Southend taxi stack up against the train and coach? On luggage, early flights and a guaranteed price, it comes out ahead.
On the train it is DLR from London City Airport to Stratford, then a Greater Anglia service towards Southend Victoria, alighting at London Southend Airport station beside the terminal, so at least one change with luggage, well over an hour and a half door to door, at £15-25pp.
By coach: No direct coach; National Express routed via central London with a change. Three hours or more, £20-30pp.
Door-to-door in 47 Minutes, no changes, no luggage hassle, 24/7, fixed from £95.

Common questions about London City Airport to Southend taxis. More on our FAQ page.
Your fare is fixed and shown in the price table above, starting with the saloon and rising by vehicle size. It is a single all-in figure with no surge pricing, so the price shown above is the price you pay, whatever the traffic between the two airports on the day.
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. The transfer runs east on the A13 and the A127, mostly on dual carriageway, so outside the commuter peaks the timing is dependable; your driver builds in a sensible buffer so a tight connection onto your Southend flight still has margin.
Yes. We monitor your inbound flight number, so the driver knows your real landing time before setting off to meet you.
Tell us both flight times when you book and we plan the pickup around them. Because the road between London City and Southend runs directly east on the A13 and A127, the transfer avoids the rail changes that eat into a tight connection, and your driver will advise the safest departure time from arrivals to make your onward flight.
