CabsOn runs London Southend Airport taxi transfers from across London. SEN sits 40 miles east of central London via A13 / A127 — typical journey 60–75 minutes. Smaller airport (easyJet, Ryanair seasonal routes) but a useful alternative when London City is full or when flying north or to Mediterranean leisure routes. Pre-booked fixed fare from £95 saloon.
