In short
A taxi from Ripley to London City Airport covers 59 miles and typically takes 1 hr 15 min to 1 hr 35 min, leaving Ripley on the A3 and joining M25 Junction 10.
XLNC Cars runs private transfers between Ripley and the villages around it — Send, West Clandon and Woking and London City Airport around the clock. It is 59 miles door to terminal, usually 1 hr 15 min to 1 hr 35 min depending on when you travel, and the fare is fixed before you book rather than metered on the day.
The journey
Your driver arrives at your address, or at a local landmark if that is easier — Ripley High Street, the village green and RHS Wisley are all regular pickup points in Ripley.
We leave Ripley on the A3. Ripley sits directly on the A3 beside Wisley, so the run to Junction 10 is a matter of minutes in either direction.
The route joins M25 Junction 10 for the run to London City, 59 miles in total.
London City Airport is a single-terminal airport, so arrival is straightforward. Drop-off is directly outside the terminal door, closer than at any other London airport.
Timing
Working back from the airport: allow about 3 hours 30 minutes before a short-haul departure and 4 hours 30 minutes before a long-haul one. That is the journey at its slowest plus the standard two- and three-hour check-in windows.

On the road
In their words
“Booked a chauffeur for an early airport run and the car was outside five minutes before pickup. Smooth, quiet journey and the driver knew the fastest route around the roadworks.”
“We use XLNC Cars for client visits regularly. The vehicles are always spotless and the drivers are properly turned out — it reflects well on us, not just them.”
“Hired the VIP car for a wedding and it made the whole day feel special. Punctual, professional, and the driver waited patiently through the photos.”
Good to know
1 hr 15 min to 1 hr 35 min, covering 59 miles. The lower figure is a clear run; the higher one allows for peak-time traffic. Ripley sits directly on the A3 beside Wisley, so the run to Junction 10 is a matter of minutes in either direction.
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.
Drop-off is directly outside the terminal door, closer than at any other London airport. 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.
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.
Yes — returns are booked at the same time as the outbound and quoted together. Most Ripley customers book both legs at once, and the same driver often covers them.
