One-Way Transfer
A one-way transfer covers one journey between two addresses: the terminal to a flat above the Whetstone shops, the airport to a house in Totteridge, or a home near Oakleigh Park station back to London City before a breakfast-time take-off. Once you land, the chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time; for the outbound 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: from your house near Totteridge Lane to the airport for a start-of-week flight to a European office, and from the terminal back home on Thursday evening. Over the summer break, book the pair early. 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 Whetstone: Route and Drive Time

Whetstone lines the A1000, once the Great North Road, in the northern part of Barnet borough. From the Royal Docks the drive is 19 miles, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes, mostly westwards round the North Circular before the car turns north up the Great North Road.

Your house's position east or west of the High Road settles the final turns. Totteridge lies to the west, along Totteridge Lane with its closes and larger houses, while Oakleigh Park, with its own station, is on the eastern side. Journey times vary with traffic and weather.

Meeting Your Chauffeur at London City Airport

Its own website counts the Square Mile as five miles off; the Royal Docks airport has a single terminal. At London City Airport, pre-booked cars collect passengers from the pick-up area in the Short Stay car park.

Whenever 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.

Coming home by train is a long chain. The Tube alone takes around half an hour from Charing Cross to Totteridge & Whetstone, and you first have to cross from the DLR into the centre. For a resident returning from a short business trip, the car is one ride with no changes.

Arriving at Your Address in Whetstone

Whetstone is a residential district with its shops and cafés on the High Road and quieter streets behind it. Totteridge & Whetstone, a Northern line stop, is at the western end, while Oakleigh Park station is on the other side of the district.

For a house in a cul-de-sac near Totteridge Lane, give the exact address when you book, and your confirmation shows where the car will pull up. A flat over the High Road shops and a gated house in Totteridge are different approaches, so the postcode matters.

If you have tickets for a show on the evening you arrive, the artsdepot is about 1 mile south, 10–15 minutes by car, at Tally Ho Corner.

From Whetstone Back to London City Airport

The return trip to the terminal normally lasts 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes, and weekday rush hours lengthen it. You set the pick-up time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

London City has only one departure terminal, so your Whetstone address and the departure time are all the car needs. With the runway closed from 12:30 each Saturday, a weekend trip from Whetstone begins with a morning flight or waits for Sunday.

If the school run is under way on the High Road when you leave, a pick-up a little earlier keeps the start of the journey calm.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How far is Whetstone from London City Airport?

The drive from the terminal is 19 miles, normally 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes, round the North Circular and up the Great North Road. Weekday rush hours can stretch it.

My flight home lands after 22:00. Is a late arrival a problem?

Not at all. The chauffeur tracks your flight and plans the pick-up around the real landing time, so a late arrival or a delay is covered by the same booking. Put your flight number in the booking.

Where is the meeting point for chauffeurs at London City?

The airport sends pre-booked cars to a pick-up zone in its Short Stay car park. Your booking confirmation tells you where to meet, and the exact spot follows the airport's own pick-up rules.

Does the ULEZ cover Whetstone?

Yes. Whetstone is part of the London Borough of Barnet, and the zone has covered all of Greater London since August 2023. The Ultra Low Emission Zone covers every London borough around the clock. The rules and current rates of each charge are published by the authority or airport that runs it.

Can a school party with instruments travel together from London City?

Yes. 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.

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

The airport still closes at 12:30 on Saturdays: in August 2024 the government raised its yearly passenger limit to 9 million but refused later Saturday flights. In 2027 London City marks 40 years since its first flights.
