Business Travellers' Guide — Which Airport, Which Transfer?

For a London meeting, the airport you pick and the transfer you book decide whether you arrive early and composed or late and flustered. Here's the professional's shortcut.

Home › Guides › Business Traveller Guide

For business travel, the airport isn’t about the cheapest fare — it’s about time to the meeting and looking composed when you arrive. The transfer is half that equation. Here’s how to choose both.

City vs Heathrow for a London meeting

If your meeting is in the City or Canary Wharf, London City wins outright: 15 minutes to Canary Wharf, a name-board meet, and an executive car to the tower door. Heathrow makes sense for long-haul and for meetings in west London, but the transfer in is 45 minutes to an hour. Match the airport to the meeting’s location, not habit.

The transfer decides your arrival

  • Fixed fare — no surge to reconcile, priced before you fly
  • Flight-tracked — the car adjusts to your real landing, so a delay isn’t your problem
  • Executive vehicle — you arrive composed, not out of a shared cab
  • VAT receipt — expense-ready without chasing, on the business service

Set up an account if you travel often

Regular flyers shouldn’t re-book from scratch each time. A corporate account gives consolidated monthly billing, VAT receipts, named passengers and priority dispatch — and for the City run specifically, LCY business transfers cover executive cars and roadshows.

International clients

Bringing a client in from Europe? LCY flies the finance capitals, and RushXO books the onward car in eight languages — the client is met in their own language and delivered to the meeting, which reflects well on you.

FAQs

Should I fly into City Airport or Heathrow for a City meeting?
London City — it's 15 minutes to Canary Wharf and the Square Mile, versus 45 minutes to an hour from Heathrow. Use Heathrow for long-haul or west-London meetings.
Do I get a VAT receipt for a business airport transfer?
Yes — every fare produces an itemised, VAT-compatible receipt, and corporate accounts get consolidated monthly statements ready for expenses.
Can I set up an account for regular business travel?
Yes — a corporate account gives monthly billing, named passengers, priority dispatch and a dedicated support line, so you don't re-book from scratch each trip.
