Gatwick to London City Airport: what to know
A connection between a holiday airport and a business one: often a Gatwick arrival heading for an onward flight from London City, or for a meeting at Canary Wharf or ExCeL.
There is no fast road between the two. The driver chooses on the day between south-east London and the M25 round by Dartford, and the fare does not change with the choice.
The usual route is the A23 and south-east London, or the M25 and the Dartford Crossing.
Plan around City's deadlines
London City's check-in and bag-drop times are firm. Give us your onward flight time and we will tell you when to leave Gatwick.
Canary Wharf and ExCeL
The same fare takes you to the Docklands around the airport: Canary Wharf, ExCeL and the Royal Docks.
North or South Terminal
Tell us which Gatwick terminal you land at, so the driver meets you in the right arrivals hall.
