Newham ⇄ Heathrow Airport
Across the capital to the west.
London Borough of Newham · airport & Eurostar transfers
Fixed fares from Stratford, the Olympic Park, Canning Town, the Royal Docks, East Ham, Forest Gate, Plaistow and Beckton to London's five airports and five international stations, both ways. London City Airport is inside the borough – £85 to Heathrow Airport in a saloon.
Newham is the only London borough with an airport and an international station inside its boundary: London City Airport sits on the Royal Docks and Stratford International is on the edge of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Around them are Stratford, West Ham, Plaistow, Forest Gate, Manor Park, East Ham, Canning Town, Custom House and Beckton.
The A12, A13 and A406 North Circular all cross the borough, and the M11 starts just to the north, so Stansted is quick as well. Heathrow and Gatwick are the long runs. All Newham postcodes are inner London in the booking engine.
Each card shows the fixed saloon fare from Newham, the saloon return, and links to the detailed page for each direction. Book buttons open the booking page with the route filled in.

Newham 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 Stratford E15 address.
Where to wait, which roads slow things down and whether the central surcharge applies – Newham area by area.
| Area | Postcode | Central surcharge? | Pickup notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stratford | E15 | No | Westfield and the station are busy – give a residential street or your building entrance. |
| Olympic Park & East Village | E20 | No | New-build blocks: add the building name and the core you will come out of. |
| Canning Town | E16 | No | Close to the A13 and the Silvertown Tunnel. |
| Royal Docks & Custom House | E16 | No | Minutes from London City Airport and ExCeL. |
| East Ham | E6 | No | High Street North is busy; side roads are quicker. |
| Forest Gate | E7 | No | Victorian terraces close to the A118 and A406. |
| Plaistow & West Ham | E13 | No | Residential streets near the A13. |
| Beckton | E6 | No | Next to the A13 and the North Circular – fast for the M25 and Dartford. |
Add anything that helps the driver find the door – a building name, a side entrance, a code. Arrival messages are automatic.
From Newham, the order of the airports by drive time is not always what the map suggests. Route by route:
Heathrow is Newham's longest airport run: across central London to the A4/M4 or round the North Circular to the A40. Overnight and early-morning runs are much quicker.
Gatwick is reached south under the river and round the M25, or across the Dartford Crossing from the A13.
Luton is a run round the North Circular and up the M1.
Stansted is an easy run: onto the M11 at the Redbridge roundabout and north.
London City is Newham's own airport, a few minutes from anywhere in the borough. Allow a little longer from Forest Gate and Manor Park.
Five stations in England carry "International" in their name. St Pancras is the Eurostar terminal; Stratford, Ebbsfleet and Ashford sit on the HS1 high-speed line; Birmingham International serves Birmingham Airport and the NEC. Only St Pancras currently has Eurostar departures.
St Pancras is a run west through Bow and Islington.
Stratford International is inside the borough. No Eurostar trains currently stop here, so most travellers use it for Southeastern high-speed services into Kent.
Ebbsfleet is a quick run east via the A13 and the Dartford Crossing.
Ashford is reached via the Dartford Crossing and the M20.
Birmingham International is reached via the North Circular, the M1 and the M6.

Airline and rail deadlines change; always check your booking. Drive times are typical, not guaranteed – the fare stays fixed either way.
All fares are for the whole vehicle, not per person. Choose by passengers and by luggage.
Every route here costs the same in reverse, so the airport to Newham is the same price as Newham 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.
