Advice needed on how to get Leicester match from Birmingham airport 19:28 - Apr 6 with 4200 views | qprmeath | Booked cheap flights ages ago for this final day clash but trains not running from Nuneaton to Leicester on the day which means relying on replacement bus service. Flying home at 2025 and if we use the bus we be doing well to make it to the airport for 745 which in my opinion is a little bit too close for comfort. If anyone knows of any other way to get to the match from the airport Id be very grateful. Cant stay over as fella with me cant miss work on the Monday | | | | |

The train via Derby gets in at the same time as the bus to Nuneaton and train to the airport but is £85 instead of the £41 for all 3 of them direct from Brum. | | | |

It doesn't sound very fair does it?The bus only adds about 20 mins to each journey anyway. | | | |
