Your Teddington transfer, in full

Everything about the London City to Teddington journey.

Your journey from London City to Teddington

A private hire transfer from London City Airport to Teddington covers 21.7 miles (35.0 km) by road and takes 74–143 minutes door to door, depending on the time of day and traffic. The drop covers the TW11 postcode district in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Your fixed all-in fare is £125.31 for up to 3 passengers — agreed before you travel, with no meter, no surge and no change if the roads are busy.

At 21.7 miles by road this is a longer motorway-and-city route,, and the fixed fare covers the whole of it whether the journey runs to 74 minutes or the full 143.

How long the Teddington drive takes at different times

Traffic, not distance, decides how long the London City to Teddington drive takes. Overnight, between 22:00 and 06:00, the roads are clear and the run takes about 74 minutes. Through the off-peak middle of the day it settles around 92 minutes. The morning peak from 07:00 to 10:00 is the busiest inbound window at roughly 136 minutes, and the evening peak from 16:00 to 19:00 runs about 143 minutes as central London empties out.

The gap between the best and worst case on this route is 69 minutes — an evening-peak run into Teddington takes about 93% longer than the same drive overnight. Most of that variation lands on the A4, which carries the longest single stretch of this route at 9.6 km. Planning works the same way in reverse. Leaving Teddington for a flight out of London City Airport during the morning peak means allowing the full 136 minutes plus check-in time, while an off-peak departure needs closer to 92 minutes and a quiet overnight start nearer 74.

What a Teddington transfer costs

Every London City to Teddington fare is fixed and all-in, quoted VAT-inclusive before you book. Economy seats up to 3 passengers with room for 2 bags at a fixed £125.31, Business seats up to 3 passengers with room for 2 bags at a fixed £152.88, First seats up to 3 passengers with room for 2 bags at a fixed £244.36 and Van seats up to 7 passengers with room for 7 bags at a fixed £174.18.

On the cheapest class that works out at about £5.77 per mile across the 21.7-mile route.

Travelling as a group changes the sum. The Van seats up to 7 passengers with 7 bags for a fixed £174.18 — about £24.88 a head when it is full, and usually less than 7 separate train or coach tickets once luggage and changes are counted.

What's included in your fixed fare

Every London City to Teddington 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 Teddington 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 Teddington route you can choose from 4 vehicle classes, from the Economy at £125.31 to the First at £244.36, 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.

Where we cover around Teddington

We cover Teddington and the surrounding TW11 postcode, picking up and dropping at the exact door you need. Teddington sits outside central London's Congestion Charge zone, so the daily charge does not apply to this route.

Teddington on the map

The London City to Teddington drive runs mainly on A4 (9.6 km), A316 (6.8 km) and A1203 (4.3 km), with the A4 carrying about 27% of the 35.0 km route — which is why the same journey can be quicker or slower than a similar distance across a different corridor. London City is the second-closest of the 6 London airports to Teddington by road, 21.7 miles (35.0 km) against 15.3 km from the nearest, Heathrow. Closest is not always fastest: a fixed London City fare is quoted on the real road route and the time band you actually travel in, not on the map distance, so Teddington passengers flying from London City pay the same agreed price whichever airport is nearer. Teddington sits within a short drive of Fulwell Station (1.0 km), Strawberry Hill (1.2 km), Hampton Hill (1.2 km) and Hampton (2.0 km), so the same fixed fare covers pick-ups either side of the area boundary. Teddington lies in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, and every pick-up there is dispatched to a licensed operator before your driver is assigned.
