Nottingham transfer guide
Nottingham railway station sits just south of the city centre, and East Midlands Airport is around 14 miles south, near Castle Donington. Nottingham shares this regional airport with Derby and Leicester, so confirming your exact route matters more here than with a single-city airport. 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 Nottingham
The Skylink bus connects East Midlands Airport to Nottingham city centre in around 30–40 minutes, and there's no rail station at the airport itself. Within the city, the Nottingham Express Transit tram network links the station to Old Market Square, the Lace Market and Wollaton Park — all common pickup and drop-off points for visitors.
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.
