Why Choose AssistAnt in London City?

01.
Service image

Choke Point Meeting Spots

Arrivals: Because LCY does not utilize jet bridges, your dedicated AssistAnt greeter will be waiting for you the exact moment you step foot inside the physical building from the airfield (the tarmac entry doors leading into the main Arrivals hall), holding a personalized name board. Departures: Your greeter will coordinate directly with your chauffeur and meet you at the main terminal curbside drop-off zone (Hartmann Road) to immediately take control of your luggage and bypass the main check-in hall queues.

2026 Fast-Track Specs

Our airport-approved agents utilize dedicated Biometric and Fast-Track lanes at both Passport Control and Departures Security. Because LCY caters primarily to corporate travelers, general security lines can bottleneck unpredictably between 07:00โ€“09:00 and 17:00โ€“19:00. AssistAntโ€™s priority access cuts average security processing down to under 5 minutes.

Lounge Intelligence

The definitive premium space airside is The Lounge at London City Airport, completely refreshed for 2026. Located airside on the upper level between Gates 5 and 9, it features panoramic runway views of the Royal Docks, an open bar with barista-crafted coffee and premium British spirits, a hot artisanal buffet, and a silent business zone fully optimized with high-speed Wi-Fi and universal charging stations.

VVIP / FBO Specs

For private aviation clients, The Private Jet Centre (EGLC/LCY) stands as the ultimate luxury gateway. Tarmac-to-curbside car transfers are fully active here. Your private vehicle or our luxury shuttle will meet your aircraft directly on the apron. You will be whisked to a secure, private lounge suite while an on-site UK Border Force officer handles your passport clearance discreetly inside the FBO.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Arrow
Does London City Airport allow 2-litre liquids in carry-on bags for the 2026 season? +

No. While some major UK hubs have lifted the 100ml limit, London City Airport still actively enforces the 100ml liquid rule as of May 2026. All liquids must be in containers under 100ml and placed in a clear plastic bag.

Where exactly will my AssistAnt greeter meet me upon a commercial flight arrival at LCY? +

Because LCY uses walk-boarding hardstands rather than jet bridges, your greeter will meet you at the terminal entrance threshold immediately after you walk off the tarmac or step off the airfield shuttle bus.

How long does it take to get from the main terminal to Canary Wharf using your service? +

With our expedited Fast-Track processing and a pre-arranged curbside private chauffeur, you can clear the airport and arrive at Canary Wharf in approximately 10 to 15 minutes via the A1020.

Can AssistAnt arrange a direct tarmac vehicle pickup if I am flying on a commercial airline? +

Tarmac vehicle pickups at LCY are strictly reserved for private aircraft handling at The Private Jet Centre. For commercial flights, our greeters escort you on foot via the airside corridors directly to the fast-track immigration counters.

What is the closest luxury lounge to Gate 22 in the East Pier? +

The Lounge at London City Airport is the main premium facility, situated on the upper level near Gates 5 to 9. Walking from the lounge to the newer East Pier gates (Gates 20-27) takes roughly 4 to 6 minutes through the upper corridor.

Is The Private Jet Centre located inside the main LCY commercial terminal? +

No. The Private Jet Centre is a completely separate FBO located at City Aviation House on the Royal Docks, entirely segregated from the commercial passenger terminal to ensure absolute privacy.

What happens to my checked luggage during a VVIP Private Jet Centre arrival? +

Your bags are offloaded directly from the aircraft hold by ramp agents and delivered straight to the FBO lounge or loaded directly into your waiting chauffeur vehicle while you clear customs.

Can your greeter assist me with the UK VAT tax refund process at LCY? +

Yes. Your departing Fast-Track greeter will guide you directly to the dedicated customs drop-box or processing point inside the LCY terminal before you enter the main security screening lines.

Does London City Airport have a curfew that impacts late-night VIP arrivals? +

Yes. LCY operates under strict noise-pollution laws and generally closes to all traffic from 12:30 on Saturdays until 12:30 on Sundays. Your AssistAnt coordinator will monitor these schedules to ensure your flight lands within permitted slots.

Is there a dedicated diplomatic or fast-track passport lane for arrivals at LCY? +

Yes. LCY features an expedited priority lane at Passport Control. Your AssistAnt greeter will navigate you directly to this biometric/priority channel, bypassing the standard queues that form during heavy European business-shuttle arrival waves.
