Looking for a dependable taxi from Manchester Airport to Old Trafford? Airport Trips is a local airport transfer specialist serving Greater Manchester, with more than 20 years in the industry. Whether you are heading to a match at Old Trafford Stadium, a fixture at Emirates Old Trafford, or home to a street near Trafford Park, our drivers know the fastest way in — via the A56 Chester Road or the M60 — whatever time your flight lands.
Every fare is agreed and fixed before you travel, every driver is licensed and DBS-checked, and every flight is tracked in real time, so a delayed landing never means a missed pickup. This is the Old Trafford taxi that match-goers, hotel guests and local residents book again and again.
Old Trafford is home to two of Greater Manchester's biggest venues — Manchester United's 75,000-seat stadium on Sir Matt Busby Way, and Emirates Old Trafford, Lancashire County Cricket Club's international ground next door. The area also borders Trafford Park, one of the largest industrial estates in Europe, and sits within easy reach of Salford Quays, MediaCityUK and the Imperial War Museum North. Our drivers cover this ground every week, so they know how to route around stadium traffic and still get you home on time.
No surge pricing, no hidden extras — the fare quoted is the fare you pay.
Saloons, estates, executive cars and minibuses for solo travel, families or groups.
DBS-checked drivers who know Old Trafford's streets and match-day road closures.
We watch your flight in real time and adjust your pickup at no extra cost.
As well as door-to-door transfers across Old Trafford itself, our Manchester Airport drivers regularly serve the surrounding districts — so your pickup or drop-off is covered even if you are staying just outside Old Trafford.
On a normal day, a taxi from Manchester Airport to Old Trafford is a straightforward 20 to 25 minute run down the A56 Chester Road or along the M60. On a Manchester United or Lancashire Cricket fixture day, it is a different story — Sir Matt Busby Way closes to traffic, car parks fill early, and casual minicabs unfamiliar with the diversions can add 20 minutes or more to a journey. Our drivers track fixture schedules and know the alternative routes in and out of the stadium precinct, so whether you are arriving for a 3pm kick-off or catching a late flight home after the final whistle, you are not left standing outside the ground looking for a ride.
From a single saloon to a full minibus for a matchday group, our Manchester Airport to Old Trafford taxi fleet is built to fit your journey. Every vehicle is cleaned between trips and driven by a fully licensed, DBS-checked driver, so whether you are travelling alone with hand luggage or as a group heading to a fixture together, there is a car sized correctly for your party and bags.
