How Greenwich gets to the airport: fares, routes and timings

The Royal Borough of Greenwich stretches along the south bank of the Thames from Deptford Creek to Thamesmead, taking in Maritime Greenwich, Blackheath, Charlton, Woolwich and Eltham. It has the shortest drive to London City Airport of any borough – the airport sits directly across the river from Woolwich – and the Blackwall, Silvertown and Woolwich crossings connect it to the north bank.

The A2 runs through the borough towards Kent, so Ebbsfleet, Ashford and Gatwick are straightforward too. Every Greenwich postcode is inner London in the booking engine.

Greenwich airport and international station taxis – every route, both ways

Each card shows the fixed saloon fare from Greenwich, the saloon return, and links to the detailed page for each direction. Book buttons open the booking page with the route filled in.

Priced for a pickup at Greenwich, London SE10 9NN, UK.

Standard fares, whole vehicle, one way; the reverse journey costs the same. Returns are 1.9× the single. The engine adds 20% for Friday journeys, Saturday and Sunday pickups before noon, Monday–Thursday trips into London 07:00–10:00 and out of London 16:00–19:00, and a seasonal supplement from 17 December to 1 January. Tariff 2026-09-21h-csz.

Why two Greenwich addresses can price differently

Greenwich postcodes count as inner London in the booking engine. That means no central surcharge on any fare here, and the Congestion Charge allowance only applies on the St Pancras run, where the station end is central, so the price is mileage plus the airport drop-off charge. A pickup a few streets inside a central postcode would cost more – these are priced from a Greenwich SE10 address.

Choose the right vehicle

All fares are for the whole vehicle, not per person. Choose by passengers and by luggage.

Airport and station pickups back to Greenwich

Every route here costs the same in reverse, so the airport to Greenwich is the same price as Greenwich to the airport. Book with your flight or train number and the pickup follows the real arrival time; the driver meets you in arrivals with a name board, and there is no night surcharge for late landings.
