The London City Airport, identified by the IATA LCY code, is one of the five airports serving the city of London. It is located in the Royal Docks area in Newham, a short distance from the financial centers of the City and Canary Wharf, for which it is the main arrival airport. The airport building began in 1986 and was inaugurated by Queen Elizabeth II in November 1987. The airport has a terminal and a 1500-meter track. It has an annual traffic of more than four million passengers. Of these, most travel to London on business, given the proximity of the city's financial center, although recently it is increasing the tourist traffic. With its business airport vocabulary, London City Airport offers a whole host of services, including the highest level, to facilitate and make the traveler's transit experience more comfortable, such as renting private rooms In where they organize their own business meetings. For some types of customers, a personal assistant is also provided. There is free wi-fi (after registration). The airport adopts a policy of noise reduction: even for this reason no announcements are announced to inform boarding passengers but only in emergency or bad weather situations. For this reason, it is always necessary to keep an eye on the airport monitors to know their flight.
The airport is connected to the A1020 and A112. These provide a fast connection to Canning Town, City of London and Stratford. They also connect to the A13 (which then connects to the M25 motorway) and to the A106 (North Circular Road, which connects to the M11 motorway).
