Fixed-price transfers to and from East Midlands

East Midlands Airport sits between Nottingham, Derby and Leicester just off junctions 23A and 24 of the M1 near Castle Donington, handling around 4 million passengers a year on Ryanair, Jet2 and TUI leisure routes. It is also the UK's biggest dedicated air-freight hub, so the airport genuinely never sleeps.

There is no railway station on site — the nearest is East Midlands Parkway, a bus ride away — which makes a door-to-door car the simplest way in from all three cities. Your quote is settled at booking, includes the terminal set-down, and stands whatever the M1 decides to do.

Arrivals hall just past baggage reclaim, name board held near the car-hire desks.

Terminals: Main Terminal

  • Express drop-off outside the terminal is chargeable — included in our fixed quotes as standard.
  • Do not rely on 'East Midlands Parkway' — the station is a bus transfer from the terminal, not a walk, and the last connections finish early.
  • As the UK's busiest pure freight airport, EMA operates fully overnight — landside cafés are limited in the small hours, so time your pickup close to landing.
