East Midlands Airport transfers — arrivals and departures

Every transfer comes with an experienced driver who knows EMA's drop-off zones, approach roads and timings.

Departures: your driver collects your group from one or more pick-up points and drops you at the terminal with plenty of time for check-in and security.

Arrivals: we monitor your flight and your driver waits at a pre-arranged meeting point — if you're delayed, we adjust. No one is left waiting at the kerb.

We collect from Nottingham, Derby, Leicester, Birmingham, Sheffield, Lincoln and anywhere else in the UK, with multi-stop itineraries for groups spread across locations.

EMA is one of the most common airport group transfers we handle. Whether it’s a school trip abroad, a corporate travel booking or a sports tour, we match the vehicle and schedule to your group.
