RideX has launched a private transfer taxi service from Eccles to Manchester Airport. The service offers clear, transparent details for the whole journey. We adopt a fixed-fare billing standard, with no surge pricing applied during any peak period. Bookings are available 24 hours a day, year-round, including all UK bank holidays. All bookings linked to flight itineraries include a 1-hour free waiting benefit. The service covers all terminals of Manchester Airport: T1, T2, and T3. To book, customers can call the dedicated hotline at +44 161 507 6677. Customers can also book through the official website, Ridex taxis. As a private hire vehicle operator in Greater Manchester, we have run compliant services for many years.
All our drivers pass strict background checks.
They hold valid and legal private hire driving licences.
They know the route and its traffic conditions well.
They also know the regular congestion points on the M60 Barton Bridge.
They know the dedicated entry points for each terminal. They will proactively reserve buffer time for potential traffic disruptions when planning itineraries.
The standard travel route starts in Eccles, transfers to the southbound M60 via the A57, then joins the M56 to enter the airport zone. The full journey takes roughly 20 minutes during off-peak hours. During weekday morning peak (7:30–9:00) and evening peak (16:30–18:30), the full journey takes approximately 35 minutes. Travel within the airport grounds adds an extra 5–10 minutes depending on the terminal’s location, and delays caused by the entry point differences between T2 and T3 are also factored into itinerary planning in advance.
