London City Airport Mini Guide
Why is London City Airport so Popular?
The airport has been a staggering success since its inception as business travellers use it for speedy access to Europe’s financial capital. Most travellers are from the world of commerce although newly introduced routes mean that more tourists are using the airport; a market the airport authorities are keen to develop.
What are its Main Routes?
Zurich,
Amsterdam and
Edinburgh make up a million of the airport’s passenger traffic whilst
Geneva is the most popular route for winter travellers who use it to go skiing.
Milan,
Basel and Berne are also popular with skiers whilst the route to
Ibiza is experiencing strong demand from holidaymakers.
How do I get into Central London From the Airport?
Many business locations are within a short walk or taxi ride of the airport including Canary Wharf. If you need to get to other London locations, the Docklands Light Railway has a station at the airport and links to the entire London Underground system.
What is the Airport Like?
The airport has been around nearly thirty years and is currently undergoing improvement and extension works. As a business airport there are plenty of ways to save time with self-service check in, bag drops and more. Travellers to the
US can even do their US pre-clearance at the stopover in
Shannon. Facilities are good there with a wide range of shops and restaurants as well as a currency exchange facility. For great food try ‘rhubarb’ after security which serves the hyped ‘Great British menu’ or go for a snack at Pret a Manger or Panopolis. You’ll find WH Smith before and after security and a duty free and watch and diamond shop called Gassan in the departures lounge.
