London City Airport Taxi Transfers

A short time ago I contacted a variety of airport taxi comapanies and obtained prices  for the same trip. ( A journey from Kent to London City airport) The most expensive quote was £192 and the cheapest was £75. I'm in no doubt you  can think of a more beneficial way to use the difference. Browse around for the best price.

The moment in time you need the taxi can add ££'s to the cost of your ride! A number of firms will charge extra if you want to be picked up prior to 6 am. Other airport taxi transfer businesses have the same price daytime or nighttime.The fee can also differ if you need to take a trip to the airport on Bank Holidays.Good news is that by telephoning a range of businesses will come across a cab business that will charge you the exact same price 24/7 and save you  a lot of cash at the same time.

Below is a guide to what you should expect to pay for a single journey taxi transfer to London City airport from all the major towns in Kent if you shop around.

Ashford to London City airport £75, Canterbury to London City airport £85, Dover to London City airport £95, Faversham to London City airport £70, Folkestone to London City airport £85, Gillingham to London City airport £65, Gravesend to London City airport £65, Herne Bay to London City airport £70, Hythe to London City airport £80, Maidstone to London City airport £60, Margate to London City airport £100, Ramsgate to London City airport £100, Rochester to London City airport £60, Sandwich to London City airport £100, Sittingbourne to London City airport £65, Tenterden to London City airport £75 

Is parking included in the price?

Parking can be costly and you  have to pay it! Ensure when you inquire for a quote that you ask for the fully comprehensive charge including all costs for the parking or you may have to find an additional £6+ to pay for it yourself.

Baby Seats

Not all airport taxi firms will supply child seats but some that do won't even charge extra cash for them. I know a lot of parents are uneasy about using child seats that they are unfamiliar with and would more readily use their own. Some firms will in reality put in safekeeping your child seat for you in their office whilst you are out of the country and bring it to the airport for you upon your arrival to the UK. A good little add on that can offer you peace of mind on the journey and one less bulky item to take on the aircraft.

Airport Inns ?

Now and then checking into an airport lodge the night ahead of your flight is cheaper than ordering a return taxi! You can park your vehicle at the hotel for the duration of your holiday or company trip free of charge and their shuttle bus will take you to the airport and pick you up once more on your homecoming.

City of London Airport is London’s newest and smallest airport and mainly caters for the business traveller although leisure passengers are becoming increasingly important to the airport.

It serves over 30 European destinations and there are plans in the pipeline for a transatlantic service in the near future.

The airport is located north of the River Thames and can be reached from Kent via the Blackwall Tunnel or via junction 30 of the M25.

If you shop around you should be able to find a city airport transfer for about £90 from Ashford and £100 from Folkestone.  

Parking prices are extremely expensive due to the lack of space and many passengers prefer the convenience of an airport cab journey.
