London City Airport Information (LCY)

London City Airport (LCY) is pleasanter experience than the likes of Heathrow and Gatwick, London's busiest airports. It is served by a number of European cities, such as from Munich, Barcelona and Amsterdam, and if your city has a flight here, it makes more sense as the airport is only a few miles from central London.

London City Airport is one of the least busy airports serving London, yet still handles around three million people, making it the 15th busiest in the UK. It lies behind Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, and Luton airports for flights and status. London City Airport has just the one modern, well-equipped terminal, which makes things even easier.

Facilities at the airport include money services, lost property, and shops and restaurants and there is duty-free in Departures. In fact, the range and quality of the shops and restaurants here ranks it highly even among the bigger airports. London City Airport also comes with a business and conference centre which has all types of office facilities and WiFi internet.

The airport is just six miles from the centre of London and is the closest airport to it. This is why it is most popular with business types and is linked to many important European and UK business cities. Canary Wharf is not far away and the London Underground is connected by the Docklands Light Railway service, which runs to Canning Town Station from the airport. Shuttle buses, coaches, and black cab taxis are also on hand.
