Prices start from £77 in a Saloon Car. An Estate Car is from £82 et a People Carrier is from £97. These are weekday starting prices. You’ll see the exact price for your date and time before you book, and that’s the price you pay.
How long does it take to get from Sheffield to Manchester Airport?
It’s about 44 miles by road and usually takes around 1 h 20 min in normal traffic, usually via the Pennines via the A57 Snake Pass or the M1 and M62 depending on conditions. Allow extra time at rush hour, and add the time you need at the airport before your flight.
What time should I leave Sheffield for a 6am flight?
Most airlines ask you to be at the airport about 2 hours before a short-haul flight and 3 hours before a long-haul one. For a 6am short-haul flight that means arriving by 04:00. The drive is about 1 h 20 min, and roads are quiet at that hour, so a pickup at about 02:25 leaves 15 minutes spare. For long-haul, about 01:25. Check your airline’s own advice.
