Pick-up in Reading, drop-off at Etihad Stadium
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Reading or the Berkshire towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At Etihad Stadium we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for Manchester City match days when the roads around the venue are closed.
Allow 4.0-5.7 hrs for the 172-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.
Etihad Stadium to Reading: the journey home
Etihad Stadium to Reading 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 Manchester City match days, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Reading. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
Event days at Etihad Stadium
For Manchester City 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 Reading 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.
