Route at a glance

Manchester (MAN) is the North's biggest airport and the usual choice when East Midlands or Birmingham don't have your long-haul route. Our fixed-price Nottingham to Manchester Airport taxi starts at £100 for a standard saloon, quoted before you book, with the terminal drop-off charge included.

It is motorway almost the whole way, which makes the timing predictable — about 1 hour 50 minutes. For families and groups the fixed fare covers the car rather than each seat, and 8-seaters are quoted at booking.
