Canary Wharf to Stansted Airport, via the M11.

Canary Wharf to Stansted is about 38 miles and roughly 65 minutes, north on the A406 and up the M11. It is one of the shorter airport runs from east London. Fixed fare here, or call +44 20 8050 9020.

The Canary Wharf to Stansted route

North from the Isle of Dogs onto the A13 and A406 North Circular, then east to the M11 and north to Stansted. Around 38 miles and about 64 minutes. Being on the east side of London helps considerably here; you never cross the centre.

Leaving time for your flight

Stansted is a busy single-terminal airport with long security queues at peak times, particularly early morning when the low-cost departures cluster together.
The drive is the predictable part. What varies is the airport itself, so we would suggest building your margin around check-in and security rather than the road. Tell us your flight and we will suggest a pickup that gets you there with sensible time in hand.

What tends to affect the time

The A406 North Circular

The main variable and slow at both peaks.

The A13 out of the Isle of Dogs

Congested in the morning.

M11 junction 6

The M25 interchange and busy at peaks.

The airport approach

Busy in the early morning departure rush.

Coming back

Your driver meets you inside arrivals at Stansted with a name board. Meet and greet is available as an optional extra; on standard bookings your driver calls you after landing to confirm the pickup point. We track the inbound flight, so a delay moves the pickup rather than costing you the booking, and the first 60 minutes after landing are free.
Stansted has a lot of late-night arrivals, and this is where a pre-booked car earns its keep. The alternative at midnight is a coach or a train with a change, and neither is appealing with luggage.

Practical details

Canary Wharf is largely privately managed, with controlled access on much of the estate. Give us the building name when you book and we will use the right pickup point rather than circling the towers. A saloon takes two with cases; a group wants the MPV or eight seater.
