The official Birmingham Airport Taxi rank sits outside arrivals, operating a twenty-four-hour hackney carriage service. Airport Ranks run this service and there is a customer service representative available at the rank. A variety of vehicles should be available, with some carrying up to five passengers and some able to carry more than this.
Journeys using these cabs will be a metered fare, which will be displayed throughout your trip in the taxi. The taxis also accept major credit and debit cards, saving you the hassle of trying to find spare change!
