LCY is approximately 7 miles (11 km) east of the City of London and the business district of Canary Wharf, the twin centers of London’s financial center responsible for a majority of the airport’s traffic.

Passengers flying into the airport can enjoy beautiful views while flying over the Thames, including the London Eye, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, before flying above Canary Wharf and Greenwich; pilots may enjoy the challenge landing presents as its glide path is set at 5.8 degrees, instead of the usual 3 degrees.

Clients can hire a private jet or turboprop with Air Charter Advisors in as little as 4-6 hours. All of the flights we arrange are operated by FAA part 135 and 121 certified air carriers that meet/exceed safety and operating standards.

ACA has taken the additional step of becoming a Premium Wyvern Broker Member, subscribing to their third party safety reports detailing operators, aircraft, and crews prior, giving clients peace of mind with every flight we arrange.

London City (LCY) is the fastest growing airport in London, handling just over 4.3 million passengers in 2015 for an increase of 18% over the previous year. It ranks as the 5th busiest serving the city—following Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and Luton—and the 13th-busiest in the United Kingdom.

Facilities include a single, two-level passenger terminal building, and a single 4,900 foot (1,500m) runway ready to accommodate turboprops and light jets — the largest aircraft able to utilize the runway is a Bombardier CS100.

Only multi-engine, fixed-wing aircraft with special aircraft and aircrew certification to fly 5.5° approaches are allowed to conduct operations at (EGLC) London City.

Private Terminal

The private terminal located at LCY is the only FBO situated within the city, allowing business jet travelers to arrive closer to key business districts.

Located a mere three miles from Canary Wharf and five miles from the city, the private terminal offers unmatched speed and efficiency for business travelers making their way to England.

Departures and arrivals can take as little as 90 seconds each, but if you find yourself there for more than a couple of minutes, the FBO offers world-class aviation services and facilities for private jet clients.

Arrivals can quickly clear customs and be en route via ground transportation to several main roads, and dedicated on-site parking allows clients to quickly pass through security and board their private jet.
