London City Airport to Ascot, via the M4.

London City Airport to Ascot is about 38 miles and roughly 85 minutes, right across London and out on the M4. On a race day the timings change completely, so tell us if you are travelling to a meeting. Fixed fare here, or call +44 20 8050 9020.

The City Airport to Ascot route

West across London on the A4 or via the M25, then the M4 west to junction 6 and south on the A332, or round the M25 to junction 13 and in on the A30. Around 38 miles and about 86 minutes.
The mileage is short and the time is long, because this journey crosses London from the far east to the far west. There is no way round it that avoids the city, and the M25 alternative adds distance without reliably saving time.

Race days change everything

Ascot on a race day is a different journey. Royal Ascot in June, and the bigger meetings through the year, bring very large crowds and the roads around the racecourse are managed with temporary restrictions and one-way systems.
Set-down points move, the approaches are controlled, and arrival timings matter. Tell us when you book that you are going to a meeting, and which enclosure if you know it, and we will plan the approach and the drop-off properly rather than joining the queue with everyone else.

What tends to affect the time

Crossing London

The dominant factor, and worst between 7am and 10am and again from 4pm.

M4 junctions 3 to 6

Heathrow traffic, and slow at peaks.

The A329 and A332

The final approach, which is where race day restrictions bite.

Windsor traffic

Nearby and busy in summer, and it affects the same roads.

Practical details

Your driver meets you in arrivals with a name board. Meet and greet is an optional extra; without it your driver calls you once you've landed to agree a pickup point. We track the inbound flight so a delay moves your pickup, and the first 60 minutes after landing are free.
For a race day, an executive saloon or the eight seater for a group is the usual booking, and we will agree a return pickup point in advance because finding a car after a meeting is otherwise difficult.

Roads around the racecourse are managed with temporary restrictions and one-way systems, and set-down points move. Tell us you are going to a meeting when you book, and the enclosure if you know it, and we will plan the approach.

Yes, considerably. Heathrow is far closer and avoids crossing London entirely.

Yes, and we would recommend booking it in advance with an agreed pickup point. Finding a car near the course after a meeting is otherwise difficult.

We track it and move the pickup to your actual landing time, with 60 minutes of free waiting.

Cancellations need at least 24 hours' notice to be eligible for a refund, and refunds are subject to a £7 or 10% administration fee, whichever is higher. No refund is issued where notice is under 24 hours, or where the passenger does not show up. To cancel, email or call us and wait for written confirmation; until you have that, the booking still stands.
