Your driver tracks the flight, meets you inside the single arrivals hall, and takes you the whole distance to Harwich International Port in one direct car.

See your fixed price

Harwich International Port is 81.9 miles from London City Airport, and a realistic run is 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours 15 minutes: the A12 out through Essex and the A120 to the Harwich peninsula, where Stena Line ferries sail to the Hook of Holland.

There’s no direct rail link that avoids a change, and Harwich sits far enough out that a coach or multiple train changes with luggage is a genuinely long undertaking. For ferry passengers connecting from a flight, a single direct car removes every one of those changes.

MILE5 is TfL Licensed (No. 009161), has completed more than 50,000 airport transfers over 15 years, and holds a five-star Google rating – see what our clients say – on every London City Airport to Harwich International Port transfer we run.

London City Airport to Harwich International Port: Fixed Prices

All prices are fixed, all inclusive, and start from the amounts shown. Final quote depends on exact postcode, vehicle choice, and any additional stops. No surge pricing, no hidden fees.

Every fare includes meet-and-greet inside London City Airport’s single arrivals hall, live flight tracking, a 60-minute complimentary wait, the £8 airport drop-off charge absorbed into the price, and both the ULEZ and Congestion Charge covered rather than added on top. Your chauffeur delivers directly to your Harwich International Port address, handles the bags without fuss, and can fit a child seat on request at an extra charge – 24 hours a day, every day.

Harwich: The North Sea Gateway

Harwich International is one of Britain’s main ferry ports for the North Sea, with daily Stena Line sailings to the Hook of Holland, and it draws a mix of freight-adjacent business travellers and leisure passengers connecting a flight to an onward ferry. At nearly 82 miles, it’s one of the longest routes on our entire network, and the booking is almost always built around a fixed sailing time rather than a flexible arrival.

Why Sailing Times Drive This Booking

Ferries don’t wait the way a hotel check-in can flex, so a Harwich booking is planned around the sailing schedule from the outset – we build in a wide enough buffer for the full A12 run that a delayed inbound flight doesn’t put the sailing at risk, while balancing your live flight tracking with the ferry’s genuinely fixed departure.

Chauffeur, Train or Coach to Harwich International Port?

There’s no single direct rail route from London City to Harwich, and the journey by train or coach typically means at least one change with luggage. A direct chauffeur avoids every change and is planned around your specific sailing time from the outset.

What the Harwich International Port Run Has Taught Us

Distance and a fixed sailing time are the two things that shape every Harwich booking – we treat this as a connection to catch, not a flexible hotel drop-off, and build the pickup time backwards from the ferry’s departure rather than forwards from a standard airport buffer.

Meeting You at London City Airport

One terminal, one arrivals hall – your chauffeur waits there with a name board, already tracking your flight so they’re positioned whether you land early or late. The 60 minutes of complimentary wait built into every fare covers a slow queue or a delayed short-haul hop at no extra charge. From there it’s a direct run to Harwich International Port with no other pickups. If your inbound flight is running late, the live arrivals board and your chauffeur are working from the same information.
