A Manchester City away day at the Etihad (M11 3FF) is around 200 miles up the M1 and M6 — a long haul that's far better in one car than chasing connections by rail. RushXO drives your group door-to-door from London, builds in a comfort stop, drops near the Etihad Campus, and arranges a return pick-up after full time. Split between a group, one 8-seater is much cheaper per head than match-day trains. Fixed fare from £355, tolls included, no surge, 24/7.

The Etihad sits east of Manchester city centre on the Etihad Campus, a fair way from Piccadilly — so the rail option from London means a long mainline journey, then a tram or a walk, then the same in reverse after the game, with the last train home always looming. One RushXO car removes the lot. We drive the whole ~200 miles up the M1 and M6 with a comfort stop, drop your group near the ground, and come back for you after full time, so a late finish is no problem. For eight sharing an 8-seater it's usually cheaper per head than match-day rail, and you travel together the whole way. Fixed price, tolls included, no spike for a big fixture.

One vehicle from your London address to the Etihad Campus and home again — no mainline-plus-tram juggling, no missing the last train after a night game.
We collect near the ground once the whistle goes, so the group heads home together whenever the match ends, however late.
Over 200 miles, an 8-seater split between eight typically beats eight match-day train fares — together the whole way, banter included.
It's a long run, so we plan a comfort stop at services both ways — arrive fresh, with the driver watching the M6.
The price is set at booking, includes tolls, and doesn't spike for a big fixture or holiday weekend. No surge, no night premium.

"London to the Etihad and back for eight of us in one minibus. Comfort stop on the M6, dropped near the ground, picked up after a late kick-off. Split between us it beat the train hands down."
"No worrying about the last train after an evening game — the driver was waiting and got us home. Fixed price with tolls in it, no surge for a big fixture. Exactly how an away day should run."
"Door-to-door both ways made the long trip easy. Clean minibus, brilliant driver over the distance, everyone together the whole day. Will definitely book again for the next one up north."
