Hi there,
could anyone tell me the best way to go from Birmigham Airport to Sheffield ? How much will it cost ? By train ? By bus ? Tried to find something in the net, but the train timetables and different fares are much too confusing for me...

Thanks !

national express coaches are by far the simplest and cheapest option.

Virgin operate trains from Birmingham New Street to Sheffield every half hour, with a journey time of 1 hour 15 mins. Cheapest fare is a Virgin Value ticket at £6.50 single, £13 return, if you can fix times at least a week before travel. Otherwise more expensive fares allow you to turn up at the station and buy a ticket on the day. www.virgintrains.co.uk.

National Express operate a coach service from Digbeth in Birmingham, which takes about 2 and a half hours. Fare is £14 single, £17 Economy return. www.nationalexpress.com.
