National Express coach travel to Nottingham

Our partnership with Nottingham Trent University means travelling from the airport is easy! Board your coach at Heathrow Airport and travel directly to the centre of Nottingham for free.

How to book your travel

  • The free airport pick-up service is for new students only and it is limited to one ticket per student.
  • Select your pick-up location and date of travel using the journey planner above. We strongly recommend choosing a direct service that does not change in London Victora Coach Station. It is often very busy and may be difficult with luggage.
  • Choose the time you would like to travel. Allow a minimum of 2 hours between landing and your coach's departure time. If you need to travel between terminals, please allow extra time.
  • To continue with your reservation click 'Checkout as Guest' and complete the 'Your details' section. Please note - you will not be charged for the coach journey if you are a confirmed new student of Nottingham Trent University, however, if you add any 'Extras' this will be charged for at checkout.
  • If you are bringing a guest, please ask them to go to the National Express website separately and book a ticket as they will be required to pay.
  • Enter your name and email address to receive your e-ticket via email.
  • For information on travel options from Nottingham Broadmarsh Bus station to your accommodation, please visit the NTU planning your journey webpage.
