London City Airport (IATA: LCY, ICAO: EGLC) is an international airport in London, England. It is located in the Royal Docks in the Borough of Newham, about six miles (ten kilometres) east of the City of London and three miles (five kilometres) east of Canary Wharf. These are the two centres of London's financial industry, which is a major user of the airport. The airport was developed by the engineering company Mowlem between 1986 and 1987. The airport is owned and operated by London City Airport Limited.
London City Airport has a single 1,508-metre-long (4,948 ft) runway, and only multi-engine, fixed-wing aircraft up to Embraer E195-E2, Airbus A220[5] and A318[6] size, with special aircrew and aircraft certification to fly 5.5° approaches, strict noise limitations, and further restrictions are allowed to conduct operations at London City Airport.[7] As of 2020, the airport is about 60 hectares (150 acres) in size.[8]
London City had 5.1 and 3.57 million passenger movements in 2019 and 2024, respectively.[9] It is the fifth-busiest airport by passengers and aircraft movements serving the London area—after Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and Luton—and was the 14th-busiest in the UK in 2017.[1]
