Getting to Wales

Flying to the UK

Wales is easily reached from the London airports whether you travel by train, car or bus. If you rent a car, you can get from London to South Wales – on the highway all the way – in only two to three hours. By train it’s even quicker, just two hours from London to Cardiff. If you prefer to travel by bus, National Express coach services travel direct to both South Wales and North Wales.  

Getting to Wales by car, bus, or train is even faster from Birmingham, Manchester, or Bristol airports, all of which are very conveniently located for a trip to Wales and have direct flights from the US.

Plenty of airlines fly between the U.S. and Britain. Here are the main operators to get you started:
