Worth knowing
Heading back to Manchester later? Book the return and we time the pickup at MediaCity Salford to your check-in cut-off, at the same fixed fare.
Your driver watches live traffic and, because we track the flight, leaves to match your actual landing rather than the schedule.
Every road toll and the airport pickup fee is built into the quoted fare. Nothing is added at the kerb.
Expect 20–30 min to MediaCity Salford. It’s a straightforward run, and flight tracking means the car leaves to match your real landing.
Your chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall at Manchester with a name board and helps with the luggage before the direct run to MediaCity Salford.
Most of what goes wrong on an airport transfer goes wrong at the two ends — the meet, and the price. From Manchester to MediaCity Salford we take both off the table. Your driver is inside arrivals with your name, the luggage is theirs to carry, and the 20–30 min run to MediaCity Salford is at a figure agreed when you book, not one that drifts with the traffic.
Reckon on 20–30 min for the drive. It’s a clear enough run, and because we track the flight the car leaves to match when you actually touch down — an early arrival or a long delay simply moves the pickup, never the price. Sixty minutes of waiting is built in, so a slow carousel at Manchester never costs you the car.
