We have booked coach travel to and from Southampton with Cruise Connect this year. http://www.cunard.co.uk/Cunarder/default.asp?Active=Boo&sub=Joining We used the service last time for just one way to Southampton and they were very good. The only problem you may have is the dropping off point. Previously we were picked up at Knutsford services because that's what was offered but this year we found that we can travel from and back to Bolton West services which is more convenient. I understand though that they operate countrywide (to some extent) so you may find a more convenient destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guernseyguy Posted August 8, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Probably the Cross Country train which is direct - 4h 25min, no changes - and about one an hour, so plenty of flexibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bispham Boo Posted August 9, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2009 We also used the coach last year, to Blackpool. Efficient, clean and worked perfectly. Agree though, that it may depend on where you want dropping off. We are lucky enough to live a 10 minute taxi ride from the Blackpool drop-off (Blackpool INTERNATIONAL Airport).

yorkshire terrier Posted August 12, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Many thanks for the info which was very helpful.We have booked with Cruise Connect to Knutsford,which I believe isn't too far from Manchester airport where we will be leaving the car.
