One-Way Transfer

A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the terminal to a cottage near the River Cray, the airport to a reception at Hall Place, or a B&B in Old Bexley back to the Royal Docks before sunrise. For arrivals, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time; for a departure, you set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Round-Trip Service

Round-Trip Service books both directions in one reservation: London City to a guest house in Old Bexley on the Sunday before a show and back to the terminal when the halls close on Thursday, or the airport to a family home near Hall Place for a fortnight and out again at the end. With both directions in one booking, the return is secured from the start; you set both pick-up times yourself, and the confirmation lists them.

Hourly Service

Hourly service keeps one chauffeur and one vehicle with you for a set number of hours. When you book, you set the start at LCY, the final address and the hours you need, and you add the day's plan to the reservation so the chauffeur has it before your flight lands. It suits an arrival day with appointments, not a straight run to one hotel.

London City Airport to Bexley: Route and Drive Time

Old Bexley, the village behind the borough's name, occupies the far south-east of Greater London, beside the River Cray and close to Kent. From the terminal it is 12 miles, normally 35–50 minutes, with the Thames crossed early in the trip and the rest through the outer suburbs.

The A2 runs just north of the village and meets the M25 a few miles further east. The village street, the station and the houses along the lanes are all close together; Hall Place, the Tudor house with its formal gardens, stands on the edge of the village next to the A2. Journey times vary with traffic and weather.

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London City Airport

London City has one terminal, built for short trips, and handled 3.74 million passengers in 2025. A car booked in advance does not stop at the doors: drivers collect from Short Stay parking instead.

However early or late you land, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

An exhibitor who flies in for a show at ExCeL is already next door to the halls on landing. If the plan is to set up the stand first and check in to a Bexley guest house in the evening, book the airport-to-ExCeL ride and the evening ride to the village as two journeys.

Arriving at Your Address in Bexley

Old Bexley is small, and its addresses range from the village street to cottages on narrow lanes towards the river. Give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up.

Hall Place is used for receptions and events as well as visits to the house and gardens. For an event there, name the venue and the entrance on your invitation.

The village station, with Southeastern trains towards central London, is in the middle of Old Bexley. If you are staying here and working at ExCeL, a car each morning avoids the changes on the rail route back towards the docks.

From Bexley Back to London City Airport

Allow the length of the journey rather than a fixed clock time: 35–50 minutes when traffic is light, with extra time in the weekday rush on the A2 and at the river crossing. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

There is a single terminal at London City, so the flight number is all the airport side needs. On Saturdays the airport closes at 12:30, which suits an early trip home after a show week but rules out a Saturday afternoon flight.

After the last day of an exhibition, many stand teams leave at once. If you are flying out that evening, book the ride from Bexley or from the halls in good time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your airport transfer with Bookinglane.

What is the distance between London City Airport and Bexley?

12 miles, normally 35–50 minutes by car, over the Thames and then south-east through the borough to the village.

We touch down at London City around 22:00. Is a car still available then?

The airport's own timetable decides when flights land; for your booking, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time. Give the flight number when you book.

Does the car pull up right outside the London City terminal?

No. Reserved cars meet passengers in Short Stay parking. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

How far is ExCeL from Old Bexley?

About 11 miles by road, 30–40 minutes. For a show week, a morning ride to the halls and an evening ride back can be booked as separate journeys or as a round trip.

Our stand team of eight has sample cases and banners. Which vehicle fits?

For eight people, a Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats. List the cases and banners in the booking, and the vehicle is matched to the load.

What do you need to know about London City Airport in 2026–2027?

A consultation launched on 2 March 2026 covers a less steep approach path, which larger A320neo jets would need. At ExCeL, DSEI runs from 7 to 10 September 2027.
