One-Way Transfer

A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the terminal to a company site in Harlow, the airport to the Princess Alexandra Hospital, or a hotel near Harlow Town station to London City for a 19:00 departure home. After touchdown, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time; for the departure leg, 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 business park in Harlow on Monday morning, and back to the Royal Docks on Wednesday after the last meeting. For a training week with fixed dates, this settles the whole trip in one go. 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 Harlow: Route and Drive Time

Harlow lies on the western side of Essex next to Hertfordshire, and from the Royal Docks the trip runs north out of east London and up the M11 to Junctions 7 or 7a. The distance is 24 miles, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes.

Because the town was planned in separate neighbourhoods, with business areas set apart from the homes and the centre, the finish depends on the exact address. A company site, the town centre near Harlow Town station and a house in one of the neighbourhoods are each reached by a different road from the motorway. Journey times vary with traffic and weather.

London City Airport to Harlow: Route and Drive Time

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London City Airport

For a business visitor, London City keeps things short: one terminal, and collections for pre-booked cars in the airport's short-stay parking.

When your flight lands, 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.

Harlow is nearer to Stansted, but if your airline flies into London City from a European business centre, the drive from the Royal Docks is still a direct run up the M11. Give the company name and site with the booking, not only the town.

Arriving at Your Address in Harlow

Frederick Gibberd drew up the plan for Harlow after its designation as a new town in 1947, which is why housing, industry and the centre occupy separate areas. For a visit to a business park, a home in one of the neighbourhoods or an appointment at the Princess Alexandra Hospital, give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up.

For a hospital visit, add the clinic or ward to your booking notes. Harlow Town station has trains south to Liverpool Street and north to the Stansted terminal, if part of the trip continues by rail.

From Harlow Back to London City Airport

On the return, plan by the drive's length: 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes on an ordinary day, though the east London section near the docks is slower at rush hour. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

If your last meeting is at a business park, book the pick-up from the site itself rather than from your hotel.

Because London City operates a single terminal, the driver works from two details only: your flight time and the Harlow address.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How far is Harlow from London City Airport?

24 miles, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes, mostly on the M11. East London near the docks is the slowest stretch at rush hour.

I have a meeting in Harlow and my London City flight is running behind. What happens to the car?

The pick-up is tied to your landing rather than the schedule: the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time. If the meeting moves, tell your host directly; the drive itself is 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes.

At London City, which car park do booked chauffeur cars use?

The short-stay parking area beside the terminal building. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

Is Harlow in Essex or Hertfordshire?

Harlow is in Essex, on the western side of the county, close to the border with Hertfordshire. It was built as a new town after 1947.

Ten colleagues are visiting a Harlow site with sample cases. Which vehicle fits?

A Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats. Enter the number of bags in the booking form; for golf bags, bikes or other bulky items, tell support so the vehicle is matched to the load.
