One-Way Transfer
A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the terminal to a hotel near OVO Arena Wembley, the airport to a flat on the High Road near Wembley Central, or the London Designer Outlet to London City after a day of shopping. 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: from the Royal Docks to a hotel in Wembley Park on the eve of a final, then back to the Royal Docks the morning after the match. After a big event, a car for the journey home is scarce if you look for it late. 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 Wembley: Route and Drive Time

Wembley belongs to Brent, a borough in north-west London, while the airport is on the Thames in the east. The drive is 25 miles, normally 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes; on a match or concert day the final approach to Wembley Park takes longer, because roads near the stadium are restricted.

The area has two centres. Wembley Park, around the stadium, OVO Arena Wembley and the London Designer Outlet, holds the newer hotels and flats; the older town centre lies around Wembley Central station and the High Road to the south-west. Tell the driver which one you need with a full address. Journey times vary with traffic and weather.

London City Airport to Wembley: Route and Drive Time

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London City Airport

There is one terminal at London City, so every passenger leaves by the same exit. At London City Airport, pre-booked cars collect passengers from the pick-up area in the Short Stay car park. On landing, 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.

There is a rail route without much fuss: the DLR from the terminal reaches Canning Town in under 7 minutes, and the Jubilee line runs from there right across London to Wembley Park. For a supporter with a backpack it is an option; a hospitality guest in a suit, or a family with cases, may prefer the car.

Arriving at Your Address in Wembley

The 90,000-seat stadium, home of English football since it opened in 2007, has OVO Arena Wembley as its neighbour. On event days the streets around both venues and Olympic Way, the walkway to the stadium, are under traffic restrictions. If your hotel or a venue entrance is in that area, send the full address with the booking and we will tell you how close the car can go.

On other days, Wembley Park is an ordinary district of hotels, flats and shops. Three stations serve the area: the Jubilee and Metropolitan lines call at Wembley Park; Bakerloo, Overground and National Rail trains at Wembley Central; and National Rail alone at Wembley Stadium.

From Wembley Back to London City Airport

Count the return in drive time, 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, rather than by the clock. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

After a match or a concert, the roads near the stadium stay restricted and slow for a while. If you fly home the next morning, the issue disappears; if you want an evening flight on the day of an event, choose a pick-up well before the crowd arrives. On Saturdays London City closes at 12:30, so a Friday night concert followed by a Saturday flight means an early start from Wembley.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

London City Airport to Wembley by car: what is the journey time?

The road distance is 25 miles, normally 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes. On an event day, add time for the restricted roads around the stadium.

My flight lands just before kick-off and may be late. What if it is?

The chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time. The drive itself cannot be shortened, so on a match day choose a flight with time to spare.

Where is the chauffeur pick-up at London City Airport?

In the car park beside the one terminal. At London City Airport, pre-booked cars collect passengers from the pick-up area in the Short Stay car park. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

Is Wembley Stadium a host venue for Euro 2028?

Yes, Wembley is on the list of Euro 2028 stadiums. Whenever an event is on, traffic restrictions cover the streets near the stadium; send the full address with the booking and we will tell you how close the car can go.

We are bringing 30 clients to a final at Wembley. What vehicles do we need?

For 30 people, a coach: a Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats. Each client flight is a separate transfer, and the vehicle is matched to the load.

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

The airport still closes at 12:30 on Saturdays, as the government refused later Saturday flights when it raised the passenger limit to 9 million. It plans a premium lounge with Aspire by early 2027, its 40th year of flights.
