Developed in the 1980′s London City Airport was mainly intended to serve the booming international finance district of the City of London. The airport was officially opened in November 1987 by Queen Elizabeth. Located in the Docklands area where many major financial institutions have their offices, the steep approach and departure angles mean flight crews have to have special certification to fly in and out of this small airport. The airport is used by both scheduled airlines and private jets, and remains mostly for business travellers although leisure passenger use is increasing.
We offer London City Airport car hire services using our successful “meet and greet” service from our local branch
London City Airport Car Hire – Collections
Before your car hire begins, we will monitor your incoming flight to ensure we are always there to greet you, even if your flight is early or late we will still meet you, whatever the time, day or night. This is our fundamental priority. Hirers must call the Branch when in the baggage reclaim on:
020 8181 5102
We will then meet you in arrivals with a board clearly stating your name.
The arrivals hall is on the ground floor where you will find our representative waiting for you with your name on a board. DO NOT GO UPSTAIRS TO THE RENTAL DESKS. DO NOT GO OUTSIDE. Please stay near the barrier in arrivals until you see our clipboard with your name on it, as that will make your car hire experience smoother from the start.
London City Airport Car Hire – Returns
This is really a reverse of the arrival procedure and is far quicker than our competitors since you simply drive to the departure terminal at London City Airport where we will be waiting outside for you to take the car and see you on your way. Please follow the simple process below to make your London Airport Car Hire return run smoothly:
1) Please call Sandra at our office +44 (0)20 8181 5102 on the day before your departure. We already know, of course, your scheduled departure time but things can change or you may want to keep the car longer.
2) We will meet you at your departure terminal at the time agreed in your phone call Don’t forget to ring us 24 hours before your departure in case any of the above procedures change.
We hope you will enjoy your visit whether it be for business or pleasure, and that our London City Airport car hire service contributes to a pleasant travel experience.
