Airport Transportation in Liverpool

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

From Liverpool John Lennon Airport we take you to Liverpool city centre and the Albert Dock, the waterfront hotels, Anfield and Everton's stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock, the Liverpool cruise terminal, Southport, the Wirral, Chester and North Wales, with airport transportation in Liverpool booked before your flight.

Liverpool Airport Transfers

Your driver meets you in the arrivals hall with a name sign, at the meeting point in your confirmation. We track your flight, so a delay moves the pickup instead of cancelling it, and the price for the whole vehicle is fixed before you fly.

Liverpool airport transfers run door to door in saloons, SUVs and minibuses: to hotels in the city centre and on the waterfront, match days at Anfield, cruise departures from the Liverpool cruise terminal, homes on the Wirral and in Southport, and trips to Chester, Manchester and North Wales.

Liverpool Airport Shuttle

The Liverpool airport shuttle is a private minibus for your party only, with no stops at other hotels on the way. It has room for luggage and suits football fans heading to a match, cruise passengers, hen and stag groups, and families visiting the city.

Landing at Liverpool Airport

Liverpool John Lennon Airport (LPL) is at Speke, south-east of Liverpool city centre on the bank of the River Mersey. It has one terminal, so passport control, baggage reclaim and the arrivals hall are close together, and most flights come from cities and holiday destinations across Europe.

You clear UK passport control first; many visitors can use the eGates. After baggage reclaim, use the green or red customs channel. The UK is on GMT in winter and BST (GMT+1) in summer.

Entry requirements and local notes

  • Entry to the UK: unless you hold a British or Irish passport or a UK visa, you need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before you travel; that now includes EU and EEA citizens. Apply online well ahead.
  • Match days: traffic around Anfield and the city centre is heavy on Liverpool and Everton match days. Allow extra time and give your hotel's exact address.
  • Currency: the UK uses pounds sterling.
  • Pickup: follow the pickup instructions in your confirmation, not the taxi signs.
