As the only London airport situated within the city itself, London City airport is obviously a desirable airport to return to after your time abroad. The last thing that you want to do is have to try and get back into the city from somewhere like Stansted; it is just an unnecessary hassle which is the last thing you need after a long flight back to Blighty. By coming back to London City airport you have the whole city at your mercy; it is incredibly easy to navigate the train system once you are in the city and even the Stig off Top Gear was able to manage it (and he’s never set foot outside a car before)!

The arrivals area at London City airport is designed to make your re-entry into the country as swift and comfortable as possible. Once you have got through passport control, something that takes a matter of minutes thanks to the excellent staff that are on duty, you are met with an array of shops and cafes to enable you to stock up for the journey home. You can buy yourself a newspaper and catch up with the recent news whilst drinking a cup of tea; can you imagine a better way to settle yourself back into British life? The location of the airport may be one of the reasons why thousands of people fly back to London City airport every year, but it is the arrivals area that ensures that they do not regret their decision.
