Manchester to and from Luton Airport

Planning a journey Manchester to and from Luton Airport is easy and convenient with a range of route options designed for comfort and punctuality. The approximate distance between the two is 171 miles (276 km), and the estimated travel time in normal traffic is around 3 to 3.5 hours. 

The most direct route follows the M56, merging onto the M6 southbound, then joining the M1 southbound, which leads you close to Luton. From there, follow signs via the A505 or Airport Way directly to Luton Airport’s main terminal, which serves all airlines and services.

For smoother travel during peak hours, the M6 Toll offers a faster bypass around Birmingham, reconnecting with the M6 before continuing onto the M1. Although this route includes a toll fee, it often saves time during morning and evening rush hours. Another scenic alternative uses the A50 and A6 via Stoke-on-Trent and Bedfordshire—ideal when motorways face delays, though typically a bit longer.

Along the way, we also provide service to locations such as Stockport, Stoke-on-Trent, Birmingham, Northampton, Milton Keynes, and Dunstable. Our door-to-door pickup and drop-off covers homes, hotels, business parks, universities, and event venues.
