Door-to-door journey
Manchester Airport and Queen Ethelburga’s College, Both Ways
Queen Ethelburga’s is at Thorpe Underwood Estate, YO26 9SS, rather than in York city centre. Use the campus address and the arrival instructions supplied for your visit. A York hotel or railway station is a separate destination, even if it forms part of the same family trip.
The school identifies Cattal as its nearest railway station and publishes its own transport information. Do not confuse a school-arranged bus or shuttle with a Luxzline booking. For any rail connection, name the operating station on your ticket and request that stop explicitly.
Parents or guardians should settle any student travel arrangements with the school and confirm the adult travelling or meeting the party. This page does not offer unaccompanied-child supervision or campus access rights. Allow for the agreed arrival window, luggage and the road journey; check airline arrival guidance for the return.
Direct private transfer
Use your complete addresses and current flight details for the available quote. Check the driving allowance for your full itinerary, then add your airline’s airport arrival guidance and a margin for delays.

What Is Included and What Costs Extra
These are Luxzline’s current service terms. The booking form and booking terms apply to the journey you confirm.
24/7 operation
Luxzline operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, subject to advance booking and availability.
Advance booking
Book at least 8 hours before the requested pickup time.
Airport waiting
Airport pickups include 75 minutes of free waiting; non-airport pickups include 20 minutes. With flight details only, airport waiting starts at actual arrival. With a booked pickup time, it starts at that time; a flight delay moves pickup by the same delay, preserving your booked buffer. Early arrival does not bring pickup forward.
Extra waiting
Agree extra waiting, the rate, charging interval and parking costs with your driver before it starts. The driver collects the agreed charge; Luxzline has no fixed extra-waiting rate. Do not pay again for costs already included.
Optional Meet & Greet
Add Meet & Greet for £15 in Step 2 of the booking form. It is not free or automatic.
Cancellation
Cancellation is free until 24 hours before pickup. Later cancellations follow the booking terms.

Clear online quote
The booking form shows the available quote for the addresses, time, passengers, luggage and options entered.
Local coverage
Queen Ethelburga’s College Pickup and Drop-off Areas
Request a quote using the Thorpe Underwood campus address and school-confirmed visitor meeting point. Include a separate hotel or rail stop if required. Describe term luggage as well as passengers; an airport booking does not reserve a school visit or replace the school’s own arrival arrangements.
Meeting-point guidance
Confirm the Thorpe Underwood Visit First
- Ask reception or admissions where your party should arrive; do not substitute a York city-centre address.
- Confirm the responsible adult’s contact details and any student arrangements with the school before travel.
- Count medium suitcases, hand luggage and bulky term belongings together before selecting the vehicle.
- Treat Cattal or York rail collections as named additional destinations, not an automatic school shuttle.

Useful answers
Manchester Airport to Queen Ethelburga’s College FAQs
Short answers to the practical questions passengers ask before booking this route.
Is Queen Ethelburga’s in York city centre?
No. Use Thorpe Underwood Estate, YO26 9SS, and the school’s confirmed arrival instructions. A central York hotel or station requires its own address.
Is this the school’s official transfer service?
No. Luxzline is an independent private hire provider. Check school transport options and permissions directly with the school; a quote here does not book those services.
Can the booking include a train connection?
Request the actual station on your rail itinerary, such as Cattal or York, and any further stop separately. Do not assume the transfer includes a school shuttle.
What should a parent confirm before booking?
Settle the school meeting point, timing and responsible adult arrangements, then provide all passengers and luggage. Do not assume an airport transfer includes supervision or a school handover service.
How far ahead must I book?
Book at least 8 hours before pickup. Luxzline operates 24/7, but every journey remains subject to vehicle and driver availability.
How much airport waiting time is included?
Airport pickups include 75 minutes of free waiting; non-airport pickups include 20 minutes. With flight details only, airport waiting starts at actual arrival. With a booked pickup time, it starts at that time; a flight delay moves pickup by the same delay, preserving your booked buffer. Early arrival does not bring pickup forward. Agree extra waiting, the rate, charging interval and parking costs with your driver before it starts. The driver collects the agreed charge; Luxzline has no fixed extra-waiting rate. Do not pay again for costs already included.
Is Meet & Greet included?
Meet & Greet is not free or automatic. You can add it for £15 in Step 2 of the booking form.
Can I cancel without a charge?
Cancellation is free until 24 hours before the pickup time. Later cancellations are handled under the booking terms.
Which vehicle should I choose?
Choose using the passenger and luggage limits shown in the booking form. The fleet includes Economy Saloon, Business Class, Eco Van and Mini Van options, subject to availability.
Do you provide child seats?
No. Luxzline does not provide child, infant or booster seats. If you plan to bring your own restraint, contact Luxzline before booking if you need to confirm vehicle compatibility.
How do I get the price for my journey?
Enter the exact pickup, destination, date, time, passenger count and luggage in the booking form. It will show the available quote for those journey details before you confirm.
What details should I provide for an airport pickup?
Provide the passenger contact details, airline, flight number, current terminal, passenger count, medium suitcases, hand luggage and the full Queen Ethelburga’s College drop-off address. Add any safe meeting-point notes that the booking form requests.
