London's Best Airport - Which? 2024
About us
We are London’s most central airport and known internationally for our punctuality, speed of service and award-winning customer experience - from door to gate in under 20 minutes and getting out of the airport in as little as five. London City Airport connects to over 30 leisure and business destinations in the UK, Europe and beyond, and in 2024 we were once again named London’s Best Airport by Which?. In 2024, we also completed a significant upgrade to our departure lounge, with 30% more seating, two new restaurants, duty free expansion, more washrooms and a brand-new look and feel throughout. London City Airport is a major part of the local economy and is one of the largest private employers in Newham. Recognised by the Mayor of London’s Good Work Standard, the airport pays employees at least the London Living Wage and recruits locally. As a long-term contributor to the community, we run a number of programmes to raise aspirations, inspire students and prepare local people for work.

What a fantastic evening onboard the Sunborn London Yacht a couple of weeks ago with ITA Airways. It was a real pleasure to engage with travel agents in such a unique setting — relaxed atmosphere, great company, beautiful weather, and an unforgettable view of ITA’s aircraft gliding into London City Airport right on cue. ✈️ ITA Airways flies direct from LCY to both Milan and Rome, with smooth onward connections from Rome to destinations around the globe. Looking forward to many more successful partnerships like this one! #FlyLCY #LoveLCY #ITAAirways #TravelIndustry #AviationEvents #SunbornYacht

✈️ We're thrilled to see James Warren-Oliver showcase the best of London City Airport in his latest flight review! From seamless boarding and speedy security to unbeatable public transport connections to central London plus growing leisure routes and destinations — this video captures exactly why LCY is the smart choice for travellers from London and beyond. 📺 Watch the full journey from London City to Barcelona here: https://lnkd.in/eEfRGaPB
Today's flight review is aboard the British Airways CityFlyer product from London City Airport (LCY) to Barcelona (BCN) — a route that shows off everything this often-overlooked arm of BA does so well. From smooth boarding via the apron at City to genuinely warm crew and a comfortable cabin, Cityflyer proves that short-haul flying can still feel special, and almost, just almost, completely private! https://lnkd.in/e5bDqBDb
