London City Airport Meet & Greet Taxi – Fixed Price Quote, Book Online 24/7
Landing at London City Airport? Let us take the stress off
Your driver is waiting with a name board the moment you come through customs into arrivals – not in a car park, not on the phone. We track the flight, so a late landing costs you nothing, and the first 60 minutes after the plane lands are free waiting time. Luggage trolleys, a child seat, a wheelchair-friendly car: tell us when you book and it is ready.
SIM card and money on the way. Still carrying your own currency? That is fine: every car takes cards and contactless, so you need no pounds in hand for the journey. If you want a UK SIM or some cash, say so and your driver will point you to the kiosks in arrivals (SIM cards: WHSmith; currency: no bureau de change airside – use a cash machine or change in town) or, usually cheaper, stop at a supermarket, Post Office or bank on the route. Our local drivers know where the fair rates and the working cash machines are – trust them to sort it in minutes.
Disabled-friendly arrival. Special assistance: Book via your airline at least 48h ahead. Step-free: Compact single terminal; DLR station step-free. Airport accessibility page Our driver meets you at the assistance desk if you prefer, carries folding wheelchairs and walkers free, and assistance dogs always travel with you at no charge.

Tipping: 10–12.5%% service is often added in restaurants, never in pubs or chippies. Most places take cards; a few old caffs and Sam Smith’s pubs are cash-only. Vegan and gluten-free options are marked on almost every London menu – just ask. The airport shops sell the same tea tins and biscuits at 2–3 times the supermarket price, so buy souvenirs in town.

London City's great gift is its size — one compact terminal, fast immigration, a short walk from gate to arrivals. Rushxo turns that into a seamless meet & greet: a name board waiting as you clear, luggage taken, 60 minutes' free waiting, and the fare already fixed. Included, not an extra.
Fixed-fare private hire

The LCY Meet & Greet, Step by Step
We Track Your Flight
Attach the flight number and dispatch watches it from departure. The driver leaves for LCY against your actual landing — early or late, the timing self-corrects.
Name Board in Arrivals
You clear LCY's fast immigration and there's the board with your name — a short walk from the gate, because there's only one small terminal to cross. Luggage taken from there.
Into the Car, Fare Fixed
Sixty minutes' free waiting means no clock anxiety; the fare was fixed at booking with the drop-off fee inside. Canary Wharf in 15, the City in 25, and nothing to settle at the end.
The Small-Terminal Advantage
🏢 One Compact Terminal
No sprawling concourses, no wondering which of five arrival doors your driver is at — LCY has one, and the name board is right there. The meet-and-greet that's a project at Heathrow is effortless here.
⏱ Fast Through the Building
LCY's immigration and baggage are among the quickest of any London airport — often minutes. The 60-minute free waiting is generous cover, not a tight window; you'll rarely touch the edges of it.
🕑 Delays Handled Silently
A delayed inbound just shifts the dispatch — the board is up when you actually land, at the same fixed fare. The full mechanics: delayed-flight pickups explained.
💼 Ideal for Business Arrivals
For a client-facing or executive arrival, a name-board greet and a waiting car set the tone — upgrade to executive class on the business page. Discreet, punctual, done.
