Taxi to Birmingham Airport
Birmingham Airport is at Bickenhill in Solihull, about eight miles east of Birmingham city centre and next to the NEC, just off junction 6 of the M42. It has one passenger terminal, so there is no risk of being dropped at the wrong building. The M42, M6 and A45 all feed the airport, which is why it is easy to reach from across the Midlands, and why traffic on those motorways is the main thing to plan around.
Allow about two hours before a short-haul flight and three before long-haul, unless your airline says otherwise. Weekday rush hours on the M42 and around the M6 junctions are the slowest times, so leave extra time if your pickup falls then.
Taxi from Birmingham Airport
When you book a taxi from Birmingham Airport, your driver meets you inside arrivals with your name on a board. Your flight is tracked and the first hour after landing is free, so delays are covered.
Birmingham Airport Taxi vs the Train
A free Air-Rail Link shuttle connects the terminal to Birmingham International station, which has trains to Birmingham New Street, Coventry and London. For a solo traveller going to a city centre station, the train is good value. A taxi is better when you have a lot of luggage, are travelling as a family or group, are heading somewhere off the main line, or are landing late.
| Pre-booked taxi | Train | Taxi rank | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price known in advance | Yes, fixed | Yes | No, metered |
| Door to door | Yes | No | Yes |
| Waits for a late flight | 1 hour free after landing | No | N/A |
| Luggage | Choose the car size | Carry it via the shuttle | Depends on car |
Birmingham Airport to London and Heathrow
Some travellers land at Birmingham and need to get to London, or connect to a long-haul flight from Heathrow. These are long journeys, and the fixed price makes them easy to budget for.
| Route | Saloon | MPV / 8-seater | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|
| Birmingham Airport to Heathrow T5 | £156.59 | £201.82 | 1 hr 45 min |
| Birmingham Airport to London Victoria | £179.35 | £230.38 | 2 hr 11 min |
Choose the Right Car
| Vehicle | Passengers | Suitcases | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Saloon | 4 | 2 | Solo travellers and couples |
| Estate | 4 | 4 | Extra luggage |
| Executive | 3 | 2 | Business travel |
| MPV | 6 | 4 | Families and small groups |
| 8-seater | 8 | 8 | Larger groups |
| Executive minivan | 8 | 8 | Corporate groups |
For business trips to the NEC or Birmingham city centre, the executive car is popular. Families with holiday luggage should book an estate or MPV.
