Premium transfer from Southend Airport
London Southend Airport (SEN) is located on the coast around 40 miles from central London, just outside the resort town of Southend-on-Sea in Essex. It is one of London’s five major airports, and is the furthest airport from the capital. This is why it might be a convenient option to book a Blacklane car service from Southend Airport when you need to transfer quickly into London. Book a premium taxi alternative from Southend Airport and be greeted in the arrivals hall by your personal chauffeur. You will then be driven to your destination in a comfortable, premium vehicle. Use the 1 hour 20 minute journey time to catch up on a few emails, make some personal calls, or simply relax in the backseat. If London isn’t your final destination, Blacklane also offers a number of other long distance routes from London Southend to nearby Chelmsford and Colchester. Take the stress out of airport transfers and avoid public transport and lengthy taxi lines when you book a direct taxi alternative with Blacklane.
London’s seaside airport
Despite its name, London Southend airport is pretty far from central London. It is one of the city’s six international airports, alongside London Heathrow (LHR) in the west, London Gatwick (LGW) to the south, London Luton (LTN) and London Stansted in the north, and London City (LCY) in the heart of town. Blacklane also provides direct transfers between all of London’s airports. London Southend is one the major hubs for international visitors to the British coast, as it lies just a few miles north of the resort town of Southend-on-Sea. Here you will find the Adventure Island amusement park, the 100-year-old Cliff Lift, and the 1.33-mile long Southend Pier which stretches out into the Thames Estuary. When you land at London Southend, you’re only a stone’s throw from Essex and exciting East London. From the airport it’s only 1 hour to Stratford, where you can shop for hours at Westfield Stratford City and check out the view from the top of the ArcelorMittal Orbit. Book a Blacklane chauffeur and arrive at your hotel, business meeting, or event in style and comfort.
