Birmingham Airport Guide is an independent travel information site. We are not owned by, operated by, or affiliated with Birmingham Airport, its operators, or any airline. For official schedules, security rules and terms, always use the airport's own website. What we do is gather the practical information in one place, in plain language, and keep it current.
How we verify prices and facts
Every price, charge and timetable we publish is checked against a primary source: the airport's own website first, then the named operator (for example the Air-Rail Link and Avanti West Coast, or the car park operator for parking tariffs). We record the date we last checked, and we show it on the page. Transport prices change, sometimes more than once a year, so a dated figure is more honest than a vague one.
Where we could not confirm a current figure from a reliable source, we say so, or we give the distance and journey time and describe the fare as indicative rather than stating a number we cannot stand behind. We would rather leave a gap than invent a price.
What "indicative" means
Some fares, especially taxi fares to towns beyond the main city, are not published as fixed prices by any operator. For those we show a realistic range and label it indicative, which means you should confirm the exact fare with the operator when you book. Fixed, quoted fares only come from booking a specific transfer in advance.
Our transport partner
Getting to and from an airport usually comes down to a taxi or a transfer, so we recommend one we would use ourselves. For Birmingham Airport that partner is 247 UK Airport Taxi, which quotes a fixed price before you travel and tracks your flight. If you book through a link on this site, we may earn a referral fee. It never changes the price you pay, and we only recommend partners we are comfortable putting our name next to. Everything else on the site, the buses, trains, parking and comparisons, is described on the merits regardless of whether we earn anything.
Corrections
If a price or detail here is out of date, tell us and we will check it against the source and update the page. Accuracy is the whole point of the site, so a good correction is genuinely welcome.
We recommend a transport partner and may earn a referral fee. It never changes what you pay, and we only list options we would use ourselves.
