What to expect
Door to door, one fixed price.
Your chauffeur arrives at your Richmond address ahead of time, waits quietly, loads the cases and leaves to a plan built around your flight — not around when a driver happens to accept a job.
Timed to your flight
We work back from your departure: 40–55 min on the road, plus your airline’s check-in window, plus a sensible margin.
One fixed price
Richmond to London City Airport from £69 — agreed at booking, tolls and London charges inside.
The return, tracked
Book the way home too and we track your flight in — a name board in arrivals and 60 minutes of free waiting.
The fleet
Richmond to London City from £69.
Six classes, one standard of care. Saloon, one way, off-peak. Rush hour, nights (10pm–6am) and bank holidays cost more; the return leg is 5% off when booked together — your quote shows the exact price before you book. Once you book, the price never changes.

Travel notes
Good to know about Richmond to London City.
Leaving from Richmond
Richmond to Heathrow is 20 minutes through Twickenham — so close that morning flights allow a riverside breakfast first, a luxury residents actually use.
When to leave
Allow 40–55 min on the road at most hours. For morning peaks we advise leaving before 6:30am; your booking confirmation includes a recommended pickup time.
About the neighbourhood
The park’s deer, the view from the hill that Parliament protected by law, and a riverside green that hosts summer like a stage — Richmond is London pretending to be countryside, convincingly.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is TfL-licensed private hire, fully insured and DBS-checked.

How much is a taxi alternative from Richmond to London City Airport?
Our fixed chauffeur fare starts at £69 for a saloon — agreed when you book, with tolls and London charges included, whatever the traffic does.
What time should I be picked up?
The drive is typically 40–55 min; add your airline’s check-in window on top. Tell us the flight and we recommend a pickup time rather than leaving the maths to you.
Do you do very early pickups?
Constantly — the pre-dawn London City Airport run is the most-booked journey in Richmond. Pickups between 10pm and 6am carry a 15% night supplement, shown in your quote; once booked, the fare is fixed.
What if my plans change?
Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pickup, and time changes before that window cost nothing at all.
Can you also collect us on the way home?
Yes — book the return and we track your flight into London City Airport, meet you in arrivals with a name board, and include 60 minutes of waiting free.
How much luggage fits?
Two large cases in a saloon, four in an estate, and a full family holiday in an MPV — tell us the count and the right car arrives.
“Always had great conversations with the drivers during the multiple trips I had with P5. I strongly recommend.”
