The journey, and where we pick up and drop
Pick-up in Ashford is at your door, whether that is the town centre, a Kent village or a business park; the driver is named the day before and texts on arrival. At the airport end we drop at the compact terminal in the Docklands, ideal for business flights. Returns are met in the small arrivals hall and out on the A13 within minutes.
Allow 78-113 min for the 50-mile drive. For an early flight or a fixed train we build in a buffer and confirm the pick-up time with you.
London City Airport to Ashford: the return leg
London City Airport to Ashford is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg.

Book both legs together and the return is 1.8 times a single; if plans change, one message moves the booking.
No Uber, Bolt or Veezu in Ashford? Rushxo covers it
As of September 2026 none of the big ride-hailing apps runs a licensed local service in Ashford, so a long journey to London City Airport usually means ringing round local firms for a quote that changes on the day. Rushxo works differently: we are a TfL-licensed private hire operator that covers the whole of Kent at a fixed fare, booked online or on WhatsApp in two minutes, with the price confirmed before the car is dispatched. Early flights, late trains and 8-seaters for the family are all normal work for us in Ashford.
