Prices start from £55 in a Saloon Car. An Estate Car is from £58 and a People Carrier is from £67. 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 St Helens to Manchester Airport?
It’s about 27 miles by road and usually takes around 35 min in normal traffic. Allow extra time at rush hour, and add the time you need at the airport before your flight.
What time should I leave St Helens 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 35 min, and roads are quiet at that hour, so a pickup at about 03:05 leaves 15 minutes spare. For long-haul, about 02:05. Check your airline’s own advice.
