If you travel regularly for work, you’ll know that not all airports are created equal. From flight options and business lounges to travel time and parking, each London airport offers something different.
At ACW Personal Cars, we drive clients to and from all major London airports and over the years, we’ve learned which ones work best for busy professionals.
Here’s our quick guide to help you choose the right one for your next business trip.
Best for: International business travel
As the UK’s largest and busiest airport, Heathrow is ideal for professionals flying to North America, Asia, and beyond. With multiple lounges, fast-track security, and world-class connections, it’s the go-to for global business travel.
Travel time: Around 35–50 minutes from Watford (depending on traffic).
2. London City Airport (LCY)
Best for: Quick European trips
Located close to Canary Wharf and the City, this compact airport is a favourite for same-day business travel. Its smaller size means faster check-in and boarding, making it perfect for short-haul meetings in Europe.
Travel time: Around 1 hour 10 minutes from Watford.
3. Luton Airport (LTN)
Best for: Convenience and efficiency
Just a short drive from Hertfordshire, Luton is ideal for regional and European flights. With a growing number of business routes and quick transfer times, it’s a practical choice for many of our local clients.
Travel time: Around 25–35 minutes from Watford.
4. Gatwick Airport (LGW)
Best for: International travel on a budget
Gatwick is well-connected, with both full-service and low-cost airlines offering a range of routes. Its dedicated business lounges and express train links to London make it a reliable option for longer journeys.
Travel time: Around 1 hour 10 minutes from Watford.
5. Stansted Airport (STN)
Best for: Cost-effective European business trips
If you’re flying with budget carriers to destinations like Amsterdam, Dublin, or Frankfurt, Stansted can be a good choice. It’s busier at peak times, but efficient for experienced travellers who plan ahead.
Travel time: Around 55 minutes from Watford.
Which Airport Do Our Clients Prefer?
Our business clients tend to favour Heathrow for its range of international connections and reliability, and Luton for local convenience.
