Pick-up in Birmingham Airport, drop-off at The City Ground
Pick-up is in the arrivals hall at Birmingham Airport: the driver holds a name board, the flight is tracked and 45 minutes of waiting is included, so you go from the gate to The City Ground without a queue for the rank. At The City Ground we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for Nottingham Forest match days when the roads around the venue are closed.
At 49 miles this is a 77-111 min drive in normal conditions. Event-day queues are the driver’s problem, not yours: the fare is fixed either way.
The City Ground to Birmingham Airport: the journey home
The City Ground to Birmingham Airport is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Book both legs together and the driver waits at the agreed meeting point at the end of Nottingham Forest match days, however late it runs; for a flight home we time the departure from the venue around your check-in, and the driver drops you at the terminal door. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
Event days at The City Ground
For Nottingham Forest match days we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from Birmingham Airport for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
