Flying into Manchester

If you decide to fly to Manchester for our open days, the airport is well connected to the city by bus and train.

If travelling from the airport by bus, the number 43 will drop you in the heart of the University campus and will take around 40 minutes.

Alternatively, train services run frequently from the airport, terminating at Manchester Piccadilly station. The train journey from Manchester Airport is approximately 20–25 minutes. Student ambassadors will be able to greet you and give you walking directions to our Oxford Road campus, or you can travel on our free shuttle service running at regular intervals between Piccadilly station and our Oxford Road campus.
