Is a taxi from The City to London City Airport faster than public transport? The DLR from Bank to London City Airport takes around 20–25 minutes — but that doesn't include the walk to the platform, waiting times, or potential delays. During peak hours, the DLR can be crowded and unreliable. A private taxi from The City to LCY offers a direct, comfortable, office-to-terminal transfer in 20–30 minutes — with no platform changes, no waiting during peak hours, and no luggage hassle. More reliable during early morning or late evening when public transport frequency drops.
DLR from Bank to London City Airport takes ~20–25 minutes plus walking time to the platform, waiting, and potential delays. During morning and evening rush hours, trains are crowded with limited luggage space. You'll also need to walk from your office to the nearest DLR station — adding time and inconvenience with luggage or laptop bags.
Taking the Tube from City stations requires changing lines and connecting to the DLR — adding multiple platform changes, escalators, and extra journey time. Total travel time can exceed 40–50 minutes during peak hours. Not practical for business travellers with tight schedules or those carrying luggage and equipment.
