Greenwich, on the south bank of the Thames, is famous for its maritime history, the Royal Observatory and the O2 at North Greenwich. London City Airport is just across the river, making for short airport runs, while Gatwick lies to the south. We collect from any Greenwich address and plan the timing around your flight.
By road distance, London City is usually the shortest run from Greenwich, though the fastest journey on the day depends on traffic and which motorway corridor you take — a numerically closer airport can still be the slower option if it means crossing London rather than joining a direct route. Here is roughly how each of the six compares, in normal traffic:
Of all the areas we cover, Greenwich ranks 4th closest to London City out of 64 by road distance — a genuine relative marker, not just a raw mileage figure.
London City — about 4 miles (15–25 min by road); Greenwich lies to the west-south-west of it.
Heathrow — about 25 miles (40–65 min by road); Greenwich lies to the east of it.
Gatwick — about 30 miles (40–60 min by road); Greenwich lies to the north-north-east of it.
Stansted — about 35 miles (45–70 min by road); Greenwich lies to the south-south-west of it.
Luton — about 40 miles (50–75 min by road); Greenwich lies to the south-south-east of it.
Southend — about 40 miles (50–75 min by road); Greenwich lies to the west of it.
One rule marks a minicab out from a black cab: you cannot wave one down. Every journey is pre-arranged, and the driver and vehicle both require a separate private hire licence to work legally. Booking through Airport Move reflects exactly that — your fare and pickup time are confirmed in advance, and a licensed driver meets you at the time agreed, never hailed on the road. In Greenwich specifically, London City is the closest of the six by road — roughly 4 miles away, with Greenwich lying to the west-south-west of it — which is often why local minicab bookings here lean that way, though a fixed-fare car from Greenwich reaches every London airport just as reliably.
For Greenwich, the roads are predictably busier on weekday mornings and early evenings, when local commuters and airport traffic both use the main approach roads. 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.
Nothing about the pickup is left to chance: the meeting point is agreed in advance, and on airport legs we track the flight so the timing matches your real arrival, not the timetable. Plan for the usual airport process around the journey itself — security and check-in outbound, passport control and baggage inbound — which is exactly what the free waiting allowance in your fare is there for.
A quick note on group size and luggage at booking saves any surprise on the day: a saloon is comfortable for four with two large cases, and an estate, MPV or 8-seater takes the extra bags, buggies or kit that a bigger trip brings. Since school holidays and summer tend to be busier for journeys like this, booking a little ahead makes securing the right vehicle straightforward.
Most Greenwich bookings with us start as an airport transfer, but the same fixed-fare minicab and driver cover plenty more of your travel:

A wedding, night out or event transfer, planned to your schedule.
A car kept at your disposal with hourly hire.
A connection on to a cruise port or hotel.
Something sent rather than someone carried, with courier delivery.
Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
