How to Book Taxi from Greenwich to London City Airport — 3 Steps
Fixed Fare, Named Driver, LCY £8 Cleared — From Every SE Address
Taxi from Greenwich, Blackheath, O2 Arena & Woolwich to LCY — Local Route Knowledge
Seven years of SE10, SE3, SE7 and SE18 airport taxi bookings have produced a set of practical insights that public transport guides and app-based taxi services do not cover.
The 07:00 Edinburgh has a 06:30 check-in deadline. From Greenwich SE10, a 05:30 taxi arrives at LCY by 05:55 — 35 minutes before the security queue builds at 06:15. From Blackheath SE3, leave by 05:20 to arrive at 06:05. SE10 and SE3 professionals with checked luggage consistently book 05:30. Hand luggage only: 06:00 works comfortably from SE10, 05:45 from SE3.
Greenwich Peninsula SE10 (O2 Arena) to London City Airport is 5.5 miles — the closest major London venue to an airport. Guests at the InterContinental O2 or Premier Inn Peninsula routinely book a 05:30 taxi for the morning after an evening concert. 19–27 minutes from the O2 car park to LCY terminal, compared to 45+ minutes from the same address to Heathrow by taxi.
From Charlton SE7, the fastest off-peak route to LCY uses Tunnel Avenue south to the A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach — 27–32 minutes. At peak 08:00–09:30 the A206 Woolwich Road east to Canning Town is used instead, avoiding the Charlton Lane pinch point. Drivers select automatically based on live traffic. Charlton to London City Airport: £56 saloon, confirmed at booking.
Woolwich has a Crossrail Elizabeth line station, but the Elizabeth line runs west to Liverpool Street and Heathrow, not east to London City Airport. Passengers who assume the Elizabeth line goes to LCY end up at Whitechapel needing a DLR change east, adding 20 minutes. The taxi from Woolwich Arsenal to London City Airport at £58 covers 8.5 miles in 30–40 minutes, directly — no platform changes, no wrong-direction trains.
Thamesmead has no tube station. Eltham's Southeastern rail service runs to London Bridge or Charing Cross, not to LCY. For both SE28 and SE9, the pre-booked taxi is the only door-to-terminal option without 3+ changes. Thamesmead SE28 to LCY: £58, 11 miles, 35–50 minutes. Eltham SE9 to LCY: £68, 10 miles, 35–48 minutes. Per-head at 4 passengers from SE28: £14.50 — comparable to combined public transport fares, with no changes and no platform waits.
The Edinburgh Monday 07:00 from LCY is the most booked recurring route for SE3 residents. A pre-booked taxi from Blackheath Standard at 05:20 arrives at LCY by 06:05 — allowing 25 minutes before check-in opens at 06:30. The £54 fixed fare does not increase on Monday mornings, bank holidays or during Charlton match-day congestion. Same price, always.
