The journey between London City and Uxbridge is roughly 30 miles by road, typically via the A13, A406 North Circular and Limehouse Link.

The London City–Uxbridge run is roughly 30 miles, usually along the A13, A406 North Circular and Limehouse Link, with Uxbridge sitting to the west of the airport. Uxbridge is a town centre at the western edge of London in the borough of Hillingdon, close to the M40 and M25.
London City Airport is in the Royal Docks in east London, the closest airport to the City and Canary Wharf.
In everyday London speech, people say “taxi” for almost any hired car, but a licensed minicab is legally distinct from a black cab: it cannot be hailed on the street and must be booked in advance, with the driver and vehicle separately licensed for private hire. A pre-booked transfer like this one works on exactly that basis — agreed in advance, licensed throughout, with the fare fixed before you travel. On this specific route, Uxbridge lies to the west of London City, a journey of around 30 miles — one of the longer transfers we run from London City compared with our other London City routes, though the licensed, pre-booked model is identical whichever direction you are travelling.
For London City to Uxbridge, the roads are predictably busier on weekday mornings and early evenings, when local commuters and airport traffic both use the A13, A406 North Circular and Limehouse Link. Booking an early or late weekday slot is where a little extra time helps most; outside peak hours and on weekends, journeys tend to run more smoothly. Our drivers watch the traffic and adjust the route, not the price.
The pickup point is settled in advance so there is no confusion on the day, and any airport leg is flight-tracked, meaning the car follows your real landing time rather than the original schedule. Either side of the drive, expect the usual airport process — check-in and security outbound, or passport control and baggage reclaim inbound — both allowed for in the included waiting time.
Sort out group size and luggage when you book, not on the day: four passengers and two large cases fit a saloon well, while an estate, MPV or 8-seater handles more — extra suitcases, pushchairs or sports bags included. This kind of journey sees more demand over school holidays and summer, so booking with some notice makes it easier to get the vehicle sized correctly.
Booked this as a single taxi ride? The same fixed fare, driver and vehicle are available for more than one journey:
An executive car with a professional driver for business trips and special occasions.
A company account for corporate airport travel.
Airport meet & greet, if you would rather be met inside arrivals.
A bigger group travelling together with minibus transfers.
Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
A day out further afield with a private tour.
