Belfast transfer guide
Belfast is served by two airports: George Best Belfast City Airport, just 3 miles from the centre, and Belfast International, around 17–19 miles northwest near Aldergrove. Which one you need depends on your flight, so it's worth checking your booking confirmation. When arranging the journey, the most useful details are your exact pickup point, destination, date, time, passenger count and luggage needs. Giving those details clearly helps the booking process and reduces uncertainty on the day.
What to plan before travelling
- Confirm the exact pickup and destination.
- Allow sensible time for traffic, baggage and meeting points.
- Check passenger and luggage needs before selecting a vehicle.
- Use the related airport and station pages to plan onward travel.
Getting around Belfast
Belfast City Airport is a quick 10–15 minute journey from the centre, served by the Translink Airport Express 600 bus. Belfast International takes longer — around 30 minutes by road via the M2, or 40–55 minutes by the Airport Express 300 bus. Belfast City Airport's central location, right on the Harbour Estate, makes it particularly convenient for business travellers heading to the city centre or Titanic Quarter.
Airport, station and hotel connections
UK journeys often involve more than one transport point. You may travel from an airport to a city centre, from a railway station to a hotel, or between towns and airports. The related pages on this site help you move between these journey stages.
