Getting Around
How to get to and from Newcastle International Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.
Transport Options at NCL
Newcastle International Airport is connected to Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear and the wider United Kingdom transport network by multiple ground transport options.
The Tyne and Wear Metro's Green Line runs direct from Newcastle Airport station into Newcastle Central Station in about 25 minutes, roughly every 12 minutes through the day.
Local buses also connect, though the Metro is the standard and fastest route into the city.
Official taxi rank outside arrivals.
Uber operates in Newcastle with airport pickup available.
On-site rental desks with major UK brands.
The Metro station is inside the terminal building, so skip the taxi line for a city-center trip — it's cheaper and, in rush hour, often faster than a car.
