Airport transfers
Coach and minibus airport transfers
Getting a group to the airport is the most common job on the platform. Operators near your pickup quote for a vehicle sized to your party and luggage, timed to your check-in, with a driver who does the airport run every week and knows which terminal forecourt actually allows coaches.
Why hire a coach or minibus for an airport transfer
For any group over eight people, a private minibus or coach is usually cheaper per head than taxis and far less stressful than coordinating cars, parking and a train with luggage. Everyone leaves from the same place, arrives together and the price is fixed before you travel.
Operators include waiting time for arrivals, track your flight where you give them the number, and allow for the extra luggage that airport groups always have. Tell us the flight time and they will suggest a sensible pickup time rather than making you guess.
Which vehicle do you need?
- 8 to 16 passengers with luggage: 16 seater minibus, ideally with a trailer or large boot
- 17 to 35 passengers: midi coach with underfloor luggage hold
- 36 to 53 passengers: standard or executive coach
- Multiple flights or staggered arrivals: ask for a split transfer in your notes

FAQ
Airport transfers: your questions answered
How much does a coach airport transfer cost?
A one-way transfer under 50 miles typically ranges from £180 to £280 for a 16 seater minibus and £300 to £450 for a 49 to 53 seater coach, excluding VAT. Longer distances, early hours and executive vehicles cost more.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Give the operator your flight number in the enquiry notes. Most track arrivals and adjust pickup time. Their quote states how much waiting time is included.
Can the coach pick up from several addresses?
Yes. Add extra pickups in the enquiry form and operators will price the route accordingly.
Is luggage space guaranteed?
Select the large luggage extra and operators will quote a vehicle with a suitable hold or trailer. Say if you have skis, golf bags or wheelchairs.
