The London Cable Car nicknamed the Dangleway, is a cable car link across the River Thames in London, England, built by Doppelmayr with sponsorship from the airline Emirates. The service opened on 28 June 2012 and is operated by Transport for London (TfL).[ In addition to transport across the river, the service advertises "a unique view of London". The duration of a single crossing is ten minutes (reduced to five minutes in rush hour as the service speed is increased).

The service comprises a 0.62-mile (1.00 km) gondola line that crosses the Thames from the Greenwich Peninsula to the Royal Victoria Dock, to the west of ExCeL London. The cable car is based on monocable detachable gondola (MDG) technology, a system which uses a single cable for both propulsion and support. This stop is a short walk away from the 02 arena

The Emirates sponsorship expired on 28 June 2022. From October 2022, it has be sponsored by the Swedish firm IFS and it is now known as the IFS Cloud Cable Car.
