Manchester Airport Guide

Manchester Airport is located approximately 10 miles southeast of Manchester.

All easyJet flights operate from terminal 1.

Due to changes in UK security measures we strongly recommend that you arrive at the airport 2 hours before your departure to ensure you have sufficient time to get to your boarding gate.

By car
Manchester Airport can be reached via junctions 5 and 6 on the M56.

By train
Manchester Airport’s train station (The Station) takes you right to the heart of the airport. Moving walkways give easy access to and from the terminals. From The Station there are many regular services to the north of England and elsewhere. A regular service to Manchester’s Piccadilly Station gives passengers access to fast nationwide rail connections.
