Landing at London City Airport and heading for Bath? It is 132 miles by road, roughly 3 hours to 3 hr 30 min, and a driver waiting in arrivals removes the part of the day most people dread — luggage, connections and a station you have never used.

The journey

The 132-mile run to Bath

  1. Arrivals

    Compact single terminal — your driver meets you a few steps from baggage reclaim. If the flight moves, the pickup moves with it — you are not paying for a car that left without you.

  2. The road

    The route runs M25 to M4, then A46 — 132 miles in total, around 3 hours to 3 hr 30 min depending on traffic and time of day. One driver, one car, no changes and no connections to miss.

  3. Breaks

    One optional stop at Membury. On journeys of this length the schedule is built before you travel, in line with driver-hours rules — it is not decided on the day.

  4. Arrival

    We drop wherever you need in and around Bath — the Roman Baths, the Royal Crescent, Bath Spa station and Bath city centre are all regular destinations. Door to door, with luggage carried to the entrance.

Meeting you

Arrivals, tracked

Compact single terminal — your driver meets you a few steps from baggage reclaim. We track your flight from take-off, so if you land early or late the pickup time moves with it. It sits inside the ULEZ in the Royal Docks and is built for business travellers: check-in to gate can be under twenty minutes, which changes how late you can safely leave Surrey.

Every booking

What your fare covers

  • A fixed price agreed before you travel, which does not change if the roads are slow.
  • A licensed, CRB-checked chauffeur who is trained, insured and smartly presented.
  • Help with luggage at both ends, not just an unlocked boot.
  • Flight tracking, so your pickup time follows your actual landing time.
  • Comfort stops on the way where you want them — one optional stop at membury.
  • The option of a return leg booked at the same time, quoted together.

London City Airport to Bath: your questions

How long does it take to get from London City Airport to Bath by taxi?

3 hours to 3 hr 30 min, covering 132 miles. The lower figure is a clear run; the higher one allows for peak-time traffic.

How much is a taxi from London City Airport to Bath?

We quote a fixed price before you book, based on the vehicle class and the time of travel, and it does not change if the traffic is bad. Call 01483 310310 or send the journey details through the booking form for a firm figure.

Where exactly do you drop off at Bath?

Directly at your destination address in Bath. Bath actively discourages cars in the centre and has a clean-air zone, so being dropped at the door and collected later beats hunting for parking.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

We track it. Your driver's pickup time moves with the flight, so a delay does not mean a missed car or a second fare. For departures, tell us your flight and we work the pickup back from it.

Can I book a return journey from Bath?

Yes — returns are booked at the same time as the outbound and quoted together. Most London City Airport customers book both legs at once, and the same driver often covers them.
