A tiny airport nestled between the Royal Albert Dock and King George V Dock, London City targets business travelers with flights to the UK and European destinations. City doesn't do queues - the notional check in time is 30 minutes, but it's usually possible to check in 10 minutes for a flight. By far the nicest London airport, and not part of BAA's monopoly.
The best way to travel to the airport is with the DLR - London City Airport Station is right outside, trains to Bank Station taking 22 minutes, and departing every 10 minutes. Car parking is expensive - when last checked short stay charges £7 for the first hour, and the main car park charges £32 per day. Some nearby roads south of the airport do not have any form of residents' restrictions, but Nick wouldn't feel safe leaving a car in them after dark.
