Is it operating?

The airport's website returned no readable content to us, so we have not read it. Wikipedia describes scheduled domestic and international flights.1

Into the city centre

  • Bus. Wikipedia says Arriva North West runs buses to the city centre, with an express service numbered 500. We state no frequency; check the operator.1
  • Train. Wikipedia says the nearest intercity station is Liverpool South Parkway and that Hunts Cross has Merseyrail services to Liverpool Central. Both are a bus or taxi ride from the terminal: check the distance and route with the operator.1
  • Tickets. Wikipedia says the airport is in Merseytravel Area C for local tickets. Merseytravel's site refused automated access, so check it for current products.1,2 Official page for Tickets (opens in new tab)

For fares and city passes, see local transport. For live disruption, use the travel status links.
