Preston to and from Manchester Airport

Travelling Preston to and from Manchester Airport is fast, efficient, and ideal for a wide range of travellers, including business professionals, families, students, and international tourists. The journey covers around 48 miles (77 km) and typically takes 45 minutes to 1 hour under normal traffic conditions. 

The most reliable and direct route begins on the M6 southbound, where you’ll connect to the M56 eastbound. From there, take Junction 5 to follow signs directly to Manchester Airport, which has three fully accessible terminals (T1, T2, and T3).

There are also alternative routes available depending on your location or travel preferences. One scenic option is to take the A6 south through Chorley and Stockport, ideal for local pickups but generally slower. 

Another useful option is via the M61 and M60 ring road, especially if you’re serving clients in north or east Manchester before continuing onto the M56 toward the airport.
