A London City Airport taxi that waits when your flight is late - we track your flight number around the clock, so if you land delayed your driver is already adjusting and waiting in arrivals. No charge for reasonable delays, no surge, fixed fare from £45, door-to-door across London, 24/7.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before pickup
Delays are the part of flying you cannot control - but your transfer should not punish you for them. RushXO tracks your inbound flight number 24 hours a day, so if your arrival into London City slips by an hour or three, your driver simply re-times to your real landing and waits for you in arrivals with a name board. There is no charge for reasonable delays and no surge for a late-night touchdown - the fixed fare you booked is the fare you pay.

We monitor your flight number live, day or night, and re-time the pickup the moment your arrival changes - no phone call needed.
The driver targets your real landing time and includes a free wait. Reasonable delays are never charged; we plan for flights to move.
A delayed midnight arrival costs the same fixed fare as a midday one - no surge multiplier and no night premium, ever.
Fares below are fixed one-way between central London and London City Airport (LCY), and include tolls and a 60-minute free wait (or flight-tracked arrival wait) at collection.

London City Airport sits in the Royal Docks in east London, closer to the centre than any other London airport. From the City and Canary Wharf the run is just a few miles via the A1203 Limehouse Link, the A13 and the A1020 into the Royal Docks; from the West End and the suburbs we plan the cleanest cross-town route for your departure time. It is short, but east-London traffic is the main variable, which is why we track live conditions and time your pickup with a sensible buffer.
LCY operates from a single compact terminal, so once you reach the airport the set-down is moments from check-in - one of the quickest airport arrivals anywhere in London.

London City (LCY) is the capital's most central airport, sitting in the Royal Docks in east London a short hop from the City and Canary Wharf. Its single compact terminal is built for speed - check-in to gate is famously quick - which makes it a favourite with business travellers and short-haul European flyers. Because it is so close to town, a pre-booked, fixed-fare car is the natural way to reach it: door to terminal in one vehicle, with no awkward rail interchange and no parking to pay for.
We collect from every London borough and postcode - the City, Canary Wharf, the West End, and the wider suburbs - at the time the journey actually needs. You tell us the address and the flight; we handle the routing, the timing and the tolls. On the return we track your inbound flight and meet you at LCY arrivals for the run home.
A pre-booked RushXO transfer means your driver is named and identifiable in advance, holds an enhanced DBS check as a condition of their TfL Private Hire licence, and operates a fully insured, logged vehicle. You receive the driver's name, number and the vehicle's make, model and registration before pickup. A female chauffeur can be requested for lone or late-night travellers, at no surcharge.
RushXO Ltd is a Dartford-based private hire operator licensed by Transport for London, registered at Companies House under number 16464640 and with the ICO under reference ZC112187. Every driver holds a current TfL Private Hire Driver licence, and our model rests on one promise: the fixed fare quoted at booking is the fare you pay, every journey, every time.

"Early LCY flight from Canary Wharf. Driver was five minutes early, fixed price agreed in advance, spotless car, and I was at the terminal in twenty minutes. Perfect for a business trip."
"Use RushXO for every City Airport trip. Same fixed price, and they track the flight on the way back - the driver was waiting when I landed. No meter, no fuss."
"Group of us with luggage in one minibus to LCY - clean, the driver helped with every bag, and the fixed fare beat separate cabs hands down."
