On the day
Door to door, one fixed price.
Travelling to The Corinthia, your driver meets you in arrivals at London City Airport with a name board, flight tracked, 60 minutes of waiting included. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the crescent drive off Whitehall Place shelters arriving cars completely — one of the few central hotels where you board under cover whatever the weather.
Luggage handled
Between the The Corinthia lobby and the terminal, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Known both ends
Our drivers know the Whitehall approach and the London City Airport pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
Flight tracked
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.

Worth knowing
Good to know about The Corinthia to London City Airport.
The rail alternative
The nearest station to The Corinthia is Covent Garden and Charing Cross — useful travelling light, less so with a full case load bound for London City Airport.
Timing
The 8-mile run typically takes 20–30 min. Your driver reads the live traffic and, inbound, times the pickup to your actual flight.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur holds a full private-hire licence, is insured for you as a passenger, and is DBS-checked.
Local knowledge
Embankment approaches beat Trafalgar Square at almost every hour; our drivers default to the river road for airport runs from the Corinthia.
