Everything about the London City to London Cannon Street Station journey.

Your journey from London City to London Cannon Street Station

A private hire transfer from London City Airport to London Cannon Street Station covers 7.1 miles (11.5 km) by road and takes 26–51 minutes door to door, depending on the time of day and traffic. The drop covers the EC4R postcode district. Your fixed all-in fare is £57.27 for up to 3 passengers — agreed before you travel, with no meter, no surge and no change if the roads are busy.

How long the London Cannon Street Station drive takes at different times

Traffic, not distance, decides how long the London City to London Cannon Street Station drive takes. Overnight, between 22:00 and 06:00, the roads are clear and the run takes about 26 minutes. Through the off-peak middle of the day it settles around 33 minutes. The morning peak from 07:00 to 10:00 is the busiest inbound window at roughly 49 minutes, and the evening peak from 16:00 to 19:00 runs about 51 minutes as central London empties out.

The gap between the best and worst case on this route is 25 minutes — an evening-peak run into London Cannon Street Station takes about 96% longer than the same drive overnight. Most of that variation lands on the A13, which carries the longest single stretch of this route at 3.0 km. Planning works the same way in reverse. Leaving London Cannon Street Station for a flight out of London City Airport during the morning peak means allowing the full 49 minutes plus check-in time, while an off-peak departure needs closer to 33 minutes and a quiet overnight start nearer 26.

What a London Cannon Street Station transfer costs

Every London City to London Cannon Street Station fare is fixed and all-in, quoted VAT-inclusive before you book.

What's included in your fixed fare

Every London City to London Cannon Street Station journey is pre-booked and driven by a TfL-licensed chauffeur who meets you inside arrivals with a name board, tracks your flight so an early or delayed landing moves the pick-up automatically, and helps with your luggage. The fare covers the drive itself, the meet-and-greet, the free wait if your flight lands early or late, and the drop at your exact address — there is nothing further to settle with the driver on the day, a traffic-heavy crawl costs exactly the same as a clear overnight run, and the same fixed fare applies wherever in London Cannon Street Station you are headed. Fares are quoted VAT-inclusive and all-in, so there is never a separate airport, waiting or booking fee to settle on the day. Prices rise with the size and class of vehicle, never with demand or the time you travel: there is no meter running in traffic and no surge multiplier however busy the roads or the calendar, and everyone in the party arrives together at the same door on one fixed fare. Fixed pass-through costs such as London City forecourt drop-off charge (£8.00) are already folded into the quoted fare, not bolted on afterwards. On the London City to London Cannon Street Station route you can choose from 4 vehicle classes, from the Economy at £57.27 to the First at £111.67, so the fixed fare scales to the party and the occasion rather than to a meter. Because the booking is accepted by a licensed operator before you travel, it is a pre-booked private hire transfer end to end — never a hailed or ranked service.
