Birmingham Airport to Utilita Arena Cardiff taxi and Utilita Arena Cardiff to Birmingham Airport after the event, fixed fare from £263 each way

Birmingham Airport to Utilita Arena Cardiff and back: fixed fares

Rushxo covers Birmingham Airport to Utilita Arena Cardiff for every fixture and festival, in both directions. A saloon from Birmingham Airport to Utilita Arena Cardiff is a fixed fare from £263 each way, about 104 miles and 2.5-3.6 hrs door to door. Book the return with it and the pair is priced at 1.8 times a single, from £473, with the driver waiting at the agreed meeting point after arena concerts. An 8-seater for a group is from £381, executive cars on request.

Fares are per car, agreed at booking, and include tolls and any London charges where they apply. No meter, no surge, the same price after the last encore.

Pick-up in Birmingham Airport, drop-off at Utilita Arena Cardiff

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 Utilita Arena Cardiff without a queue for the rank. At Utilita Arena Cardiff we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for arena concerts when the roads around the venue are closed.

The drive is about 104 miles; the driver checks closures and event-day traffic orders and picks the fastest route on the day, so the time above already allows for normal traffic.

Utilita Arena Cardiff to Birmingham Airport: the journey home

Utilita Arena Cardiff 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 arena concerts, 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 Utilita Arena Cardiff

For arena concerts 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.
