London City Airport sits in the Royal Docks in East London, on the opposite side of the capital from Fulham — which makes it exactly the journey where a door-to-door car earns its keep. From SW6 the airport is roughly 14 miles away, about 40 to 55 minutes off-peak via the Embankment and the A13 or the Limehouse Link. By rail it's a District line trip across town and at least one change onto the DLR, awkward with luggage and slow at the wrong hour. A RushXO Fulham to London City taxi replaces all of that with a single vehicle from your door to the LCY forecourt, flight-tracked, with the £8 drop-off charge handled and the fare fixed at booking. LCY's quick, compact check-in rewards arriving on time and relaxed rather than flustered from the Underground.

Why this transfer

Fulham to LCY, Door to Door

£

Fixed Fare, Drop-Off Included

The price is locked at booking and includes the £8 London City drop-off charge — no meter, no surge, nothing to pay on the forecourt whatever central London traffic does.

🚑

No DLR Changes

Skip the District line trek and the change onto the DLR with cases. One car, your door to the LCY terminal — which matters most with luggage or a tight business schedule.

📡

Flight-Tracked Timing

We monitor your flight and time the Fulham pickup to reach LCY inside its quick check-in window, factoring the cross-town run. If the flight moves, we move with it.

Meet & Greet on Return

Landing at LCY, your driver meets you and walks you to the car — pick-ups are from the short-stay area rather than the forecourt, and the tracked landing means they're ready when you are.

Door-to-Door in SW6

From a flat by Fulham Broadway to a street off Parsons Green, we collect at your door at the same fixed fare across the whole postcode — no rank, no pickup zone.

Licensed Chauffeurs

Every driver is TfL Private Hire licensed and enhanced-DBS checked, knows the Fulham collection area and the Royal Docks approach, and you get their name and vehicle before pickup.

Your Journey Across London

From Fulham we head north-east towards the river and follow the Embankment through the City, then pick up the A13 or the Limehouse Link east towards the Royal Docks, arriving at the LCY forecourt via Connaught Road. It's a cross-town run, so the central stretch is the main variable — which is exactly why a tracked, buffered pickup beats guessing the Tube timings.

The London City Drop-Off Charge — Handled for You

Since 6 January 2026, London City charges £8 to use the terminal forecourt for up to five minutes (then £1 per minute to a 10-minute cap), enforced by number-plate cameras and payable online. With a RushXO transfer that charge is built into your fixed fare and handled by the driver — nothing for you to pay or register, and no parking cost since no car is left at the airport.

What customers say

Trusted on the London City Run

★★★★★

"I fly LCY for work and getting there from Fulham on the Tube was always a faff. One car from my door, fixed price, drop-off sorted — I rebook it every trip now. Arrive relaxed, straight through the quick check-in."

★★★★★

"Early flight from City with two cases — no way I was dragging those across town and onto the DLR. Driver came to Parsons Green on time, smooth run east, dropped right at the door. Worth every penny."

★★★★★

"Landed back at LCY late and the driver was tracking it — met me, took the bag, walked me to the car. Half an hour and I was home in Fulham. Exactly what you want after a long day."

Frequently asked

Fulham to London City — Your Questions

How much is a taxi from Fulham to London City Airport?
A fixed-fare saloon starts from around £50 for the ~14-mile cross-London run, with executive (£70), MPV (£70), 8-seater (£90) and 9-seater (£100). The fare is fixed at booking, includes the £8 drop-off charge, and never carries a surge.
How long does Fulham to LCY take?
Around 40 to 55 minutes off-peak via the Embankment and the A13 or Limehouse Link. Central London traffic is the main variable, so we track your flight and build a buffer into the pickup time. Allow 55–80 minutes in peaks.
Is a taxi quicker than the DLR from Fulham?
For a single traveller the DLR is efficient, but from Fulham it means a District line trip across town and a change with luggage. A direct car is door-to-door with no changes — preferred with cases or an early flight, and usually better value for two or more.
Do I have to pay the London City drop-off charge?
No — the £8 forecourt charge (since 6 January 2026, up to 5 minutes) is handled by your driver and built into your fixed fare. Nothing for you to pay or register.
Do you collect from all of SW6?
Yes — door-to-door from anywhere in Fulham: Fulham Broadway, Parsons Green, Putney Bridge, Sands End, West Kensington and every street between, at the same fixed fare.
Can I book a return from LCY back to Fulham?
Yes — the return runs on the same fixed-fare basis with meet-and-greet and your flight tracked. Book both legs together and we hold your driver details for the return.
