Journey Detail: Stratford-upon-Avon to Birmingham Airport
The run from Stratford-upon-Avon to Birmingham Airport is roughly 27 miles and usually takes 35 to 45 minutes.
Most drivers head north-east on the A46 and join the M40 near Warwick, which merges into the M42 for junction 6. A quieter alternative through Henley-in-Arden on the A3400 also reaches the M42, and the driver may use it if the A46 is slow.
We’re often booked by visitors staying near the theatres and the river, so hotel pickups in the town centre are routine.
Why Book With Us
Onward Travel Solutions has been running airport transfers across Warwickshire and the West Midlands for years, including transfers for visitors staying near the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and the wider tourist area. You book directly with us, we confirm your fare in writing, and the same company is accountable for your journey.
Every booking includes free flight monitoring, so if your outbound flight is delayed and you need picking up earlier, or your return flight lands ahead of schedule, we adjust automatically at no extra charge.
