Pick-up in Cardiff Airport, drop-off at AO Arena Manchester
Pick-up is in the arrivals hall at Cardiff 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 AO Arena Manchester without a queue for the rank. At AO Arena Manchester 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.
Allow 4.1-5.8 hrs for the 174-mile drive, more on the day of a big fixture. For a fixed start time we build in a buffer and confirm the pick-up time with you.
AO Arena Manchester to Cardiff Airport: the journey home
AO Arena Manchester to Cardiff 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 AO Arena Manchester
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 Cardiff 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.
