One-Way Transfer
A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the terminal to a home near Kingswood station, the airport to Kingswood Golf and Country Club with clubs in the boot, or a house in Burgh Heath to London City for a lunchtime departure. On arrival, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time; for the outbound trip, 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 house on the A217 at the start of a visit, and from Kingswood to the Royal Docks for the trip home, or straight to the golf club on landing and back after a weekend of rounds. 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 Kingswood: Route and Drive Time

The Kingswood on this page is a Surrey one, up on the chalk of the North Downs and run by Reigate and Banstead council; Bristol has a different Kingswood. Leaving the Docks, your driver takes a river crossing and then works south through the capital's suburbs. It is 26 miles, normally 1 hour 25 minutes to 2 hours, and the urban half of the journey takes most of that time.

The village stretches beside the A217; Tadworth faces it on the opposite side of that road, and the M25 meets it at Junction 8, down at its southern edge. A house in the village, a home near the golf club and an address close to the motorway junction are some minutes apart, so the street name matters. Journey times vary with traffic and weather.

London City Airport to Kingswood: Route and Drive Time

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London City Airport

London City is a single-terminal airport, so landing there is quick: anyone with a booked car heads to Short Stay parking, which holds the collection zone. 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.

The rail alternative to Kingswood is long. You would take the DLR into central London, change, and then catch a train on the Tattenham Corner line from London Bridge or East Croydon. If you are carrying golf clubs or several cases, a single car ride spares you those changes.

Arriving at Your Address in Kingswood

Kingswood, also known as Kingswood with Burgh Heath, is a mainly residential area. Its station on the Tattenham Corner line stands near the village centre. Kingswood Warren, the Gothic mansion that housed BBC research and development from 1948 to 2010, is a landmark on the edge of the village.

Some homes stand on private roads or behind gates. Give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up; for a gated drive, add any instructions for the entrance. If you are going straight to Kingswood Golf and Country Club, name the club rather than the village.

From Kingswood Back to London City Airport

Going back takes 1 hour 25 minutes to 2 hours; expect the upper figure if the car meets London's morning peak. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

There is one terminal for all departures, so no terminal needs to be named. On Derby weekend, 4–5 June 2027, the roads around the racecourse on the Downs near Kingswood carry race traffic; so a flight on either date calls for an earlier start.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How many miles is Kingswood from London City Airport?

The drive is 26 miles and normally takes 1 hour 25 minutes to 2 hours. The London section eats up most of those minutes, and the Surrey end goes faster.

Our flight into London City was moved to a later time. Will the chauffeur know?

Yes. With your flight number on the reservation, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time, so the new time is followed.

Golf bags collected, now where is the car at London City?

Pre-booked cars collect passengers in Short Stay parking, signposted from the single terminal. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

Which Kingswood is this page about?

The Surrey village by Tadworth, close to Junction 8 of the M25, within Reigate and Banstead. It is not the Kingswood on the edge of Bristol.

Eight of us are coming for a golf weekend. Can the clubs travel with us?

Yes. For eight players, a Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats. List golf bags and players as two separate numbers.

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

Hand luggage rules: as of August 2026, London City security still held liquids to the 100 ml container rule. In Kingswood, Reigate and Banstead Borough Council is due to be replaced by East Surrey Council on 1 April 2027.
