Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Donington Park taxi and Donington Park to Liverpool John Lennon Airport after the event, fixed fare from £215 each way

Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Donington Park and back: fixed fares

Rushxo covers Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Donington Park for every fixture and festival, in both directions. A saloon from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Donington Park is a fixed fare from £215 each way, about 81 miles and 2.0-2.9 hrs door to door. Book the return with it and the pair is priced at 1.8 times a single, from £387, with the driver waiting at the agreed meeting point after Download Festival and race meetings. An 8-seater for a group is from £312, 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 Liverpool John Lennon Airport, drop-off at Donington Park

Pick-up is in the arrivals hall at Liverpool John Lennon 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 Donington Park without a queue for the rank. At Donington Park we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for Download Festival and race meetings when the roads around the venue are closed.

Allow 2.0-2.9 hrs for the 81-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.

Donington Park to Liverpool John Lennon Airport: the journey home

Donington Park to Liverpool John Lennon 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 Download Festival and race meetings, 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 Donington Park

For Download Festival and race meetings 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 Liverpool John Lennon 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.
