Linking London City and Gatwick by public transport means a DLR or train into central London, a change, and the Gatwick Express or a Thameslink service out the other side — with luggage, a clock running, and a terminal walk at the end. A direct car removes every one of those joins. One vehicle collects you at LCY and delivers you straight to Gatwick South Terminal departures, around 45 miles via the A102/A2 and the M25/M23, with all tolls in the fixed fare. For a connection between two unconnected tickets, that simplicity is exactly what protects the second flight.

What travellers say

Trusted Between the Airports

★★★★★

"Arrived into City, flying out of Gatwick South a few hours later. One car, straight there, dropped at the right terminal door. The rail version of this with bags would have been miserable. So easy."

"They confirmed I needed South Terminal from my flight details and dropped me right at departures — no terminal shuttle, no guesswork. Price was fixed with the motorway tolls included. Spot on."

★★★★★

"Coming the other way, Gatwick South to City, met at arrivals and away. Driver knew the M25/M23 timing and built in a buffer so I made the City flight comfortably. Will use every time."
