Leicester to Birmingham Airport taxi
From £82 fixed for a pre-booked saloon to Birmingham Airport.
A car booked in advance between Leicester and Birmingham Airport is from £82.00 for a saloon, and the amount is settled when you book. The road journey is 36.4 miles, roughly 49 minutes with the M69 behaving. Worth knowing before you compare: no direct rail service links the pair, the cheapest adult single National Rail Enquiries returned was £19.70, and that price starts at Birmingham International station rather than at the terminal door.

When not to book us: The published figure on this pair flatters the scheduled option, and we would rather explain that than quietly benefit from it. £19.70 buys an adult single from Birmingham International to Leicester, which is a fair price for a journey of 1 hour 19 minutes. But you do not start at Birmingham International. You start at a terminal, and the Air-Rail Link leg that joins the two is a separate journey we have not been able to price, so the real number is £19.70 plus something. Every journey in the sampled day needed at least one change, and none was direct. Set against that, the road distance is about 39 miles with a free-flow drive near 55 minutes. One person with a cabin bag and time to spare will still be better off on the scheduled route, and we will not pretend otherwise. Two people, a hold bag each and a Leicester address away from the station, and you are comparing £39.40 plus connections against a single amount that ends at your door. Oadby, Wigston and the villages out towards Market Harborough tilt it further, because they are a third journey the ticket price never mentions.

Lowest live operator quote for this direction, saloon, 27 October 2026.
Each leg is quoted separately and a different operator can win each, so this price can differ from the Leicester to Birmingham Airport price at the top of this page.
To book this direction, set Birmingham Airport as your pick-up in the form at the top of this page.
On this leg the fixed price also includes:
- 60 minutes free waiting after your flight lands; the rank meter charges from the moment you sit down
- express pick-up at the airport's designated pick-up point
- flight tracking, so a delayed arrival moves your pick-up time
Where you meet your driver
- Enter the Leicester address in full with its postcode. The city centre, the university quarter and the suburbs out towards Oadby price differently, and the quote reflects the one you type rather than a Leicester average.
- Your driver's mobile number arrives in the supplier details email, separately from the booking confirmation. Put it in your phone before you fly.
- The inbound flight is watched at no extra cost, so a late arrival shifts the collection rather than losing it. The free waiting allowance that starts on landing is set out under What it costs above.
- Express pick-up at the designated point comes as standard, and a name board in the arrivals hall is meet and greet, which is a paid extra you add at checkout. We have not read Birmingham Airport's own taxi guidance directly, so this page makes no claim about where its ranks sit.
Contact your driver as soon as you land, their number is in your supplier details email.
Arrivals-hall meet and greet with a name board is available as a paid extra at checkout.
Questions people ask about this route
Is there a direct train from Birmingham Airport to Leicester?
No. Every journey in the day we sampled needed one change and some needed two, with the whole trip running between 1 hour 17 minutes and 1 hour 31 minutes. If a page tells you the pair is direct, it is describing a service the journey planner does not show.
How much is the cheapest fare, and what does it leave out?
£19.70 for one adult, and it leaves out the start of your journey. That price runs from Birmingham International station, while you will be standing in a terminal, and the Air-Rail Link leg between the two is priced separately and is not included in our figure.
What would three of you pay on the scheduled route?
£59.10 in fares alone, three times £19.70, plus three connecting legs at each end. Compare that with the single quote at the top of this page, which covers the car rather than the seats.
How long is the drive from Leicester to the airport?
About 39 miles and roughly 55 minutes free-flow, mostly on the M69 and M6. That is a best case with no traffic model behind it, so allow more at rush hour and considerably more if you are aiming at a check-in deadline.
Is your price per person?
No, it is for the vehicle. One amount covers everyone travelling and their luggage, which is the whole reason the comparison moves as the party grows.
Do you cover Loughborough, Hinckley and Market Harborough?
Yes, and each is quoted to its own postcode rather than folded into a Leicester rate. Enter the address in the form and the price shown is for that specific run.
Can you collect at unsociable hours?
Yes, at any time, for the same amount as a daytime booking. Nothing here is metered, so a collection long before the first departures of the day costs what an afternoon one costs.
What if the flight comes in late?
The driver tracks it and moves the pick-up to your real landing time at no charge. Free waiting begins once you are down, and the allowance included in your booking is stated under What it costs above.
Where does the driver wait at Birmingham Airport?
At the designated pick-up point, and you reach them on the number in your supplier details email once you are through. Being met inside with a board is meet and greet and costs extra.
What is the cancellation window?
Twenty four hours. Cancel before that and you are refunded in full; inside it the full amount applies. Changes go through the booking link in your confirmation email on the same basis.
