Arriving to Manchester Airport

We envisage that most people traveling by air will arrive into Manchester International Airport (MAN). From there there is a direct train to Liverpool Lime Street though some will require a change in Manchester City Centre (at the same station). The first train is 05:07 and the last train is at 22:49 on weekdays. Booking in advance can often save money but may restrict you to a specific time of train. You can also buy tickets at the station using the ticket kiosk or ticket machines.

If arriving into Liverpool by air you can get a taxi from the airport into the city centre ~20-30 mins or get a bus to Liverpool South Parkway then a train into Liverpool city centre.

 

Whichever route you take, once you arrive in to Liverpool Lime St you can take a black cab or walk to your hotel. The university is ~5-10 minutes walk from Lime St Station.
