Uber Boat by Thames Clippers is London’s River Bus service, with stops at 24 piers across the city, from Putney Pier in the west to Barking Riverside in the east.
This offer is available to British Airways Cityflyer passengers, flying from London City Airport. Whether traveling from Putney to Palma or Battersea to Berlin, passengers can enjoy discounted tickets and a convenient route to the airport.
Disembarking at Royal Wharf Pier, passengers are just a short DLR ride from London City Airport. This journey includes views of landmarks such as Big Ben, The London Eye, The Shard, and The Cutty Sark.
Uber Boat by Thames Clippers provides a relaxing alternative to traditional travel, with accessible boarding points at Chelsea Harbour, Battersea Power Station, and Embankment. Discounted tickets start at GBP 4.20 per person within the East Zone or GBP 7.69 from central London.
British Airways customers travelling to or from London City Airport on the same day can enjoy a 25% discount by booking in advance at www.ba.com/londoncity. Additionally, presenting their boarding pass at the onboard café bar entitles them to a complimentary hot drink, perfect for enjoying the scenic views.
