On Thursday (June 6, 2024), British Airways announced a new partnership with Uber Boat by Thames Clippers for transportation by boat to London City Airport. Customers can now enjoy a scenic journey to the airport with 25 percent off tickets and a complimentary hot drink on the Thames. Uber Boat by Thames Clippers is London’s River Bus service, stopping at 24 piers across the capital from Putney Pier in the west to Barking Riverside in the east. The offer is available for customers flying with BA Cityflyer, British Airways’ London City Airport based short-haul subsidiary.
In Friday’s announcement, BA Cityflyer’s CEO, Tom Stoddart, said,
“Not only is flying from London City a convenient and quick way to travel, but it allows our customers to really embrace our brilliant city. With views of the Canary Wharf skyline and the River Thames, it’s an airport like no other and working with Uber Boat by Thames Clippers helps us to extend the London experience beyond the airport.”
