Thank you for attending SET2023

East Midlands Airport (EMA)

The closest airport to Nottingham is the East Midlands Airport (EMA), which mainly serves national or short international connections. Travelling via the A453 road between East Midlands Airport and Nottingham takes approximately 25 minutes, depending on traffic, and is one of the easiest ways to get between the airport and the city.

Some directions on how to get to the campus from the airport and further information on the local transport system can be found below

Bus from East Midlands Airport

Good links for bus travel to the University from East Midlands Airport can be found here – follow the link for the Skylink’ service

 

Note that there are two Skylink buses – one will bring you to the Nottingham University campus (Skylink Nottingham) and the other to Nottingham City centre (Skylink Express, a lot faster). The bus timetables, fares and routes can be found here (you can download pdf files with the details): Timetables

 

If you use the faster Skylink Express option then you will need to travel from Nottingham city centre to the University

Taxi from East Midlands

A taxi from the airport to the University campus will cost approximately £30 – £40 and will take around 20 minutes.

 

Details and links to some taxi companies can be found on this website

 

Booking a taxi in advance of your arrival is strongly advised.
