MAPS AND DIRECTIONS

From The North
 
For drivers travelling from Portstewart, Portrush, Ballymoney or Coleraine the best route towards Belfast Airport is via the A26. By following this road southwards, passengers will have one of two options when approaching the airport. They can either turn onto Dublin Road which leads directly to the airport, or they can continue on the A26 and turn off at the A57 which also leads to the airport and the Belfast Airport parking facilities.
 
From The South
 
For those driving from the direction of Newry the best way to get to the airport is to take the A1 northwards. Turn off at the A50, which eventually becomes the A26. Next, turn off at the A3 and once you hit the motorway junction, turn off once more onto the A26. Follow this stretch of the A26 northwards and turn left at the A57. The A57 leads straight to the airport and the Belfast Airport parking facilities.
 
From The West
 
Passengers at Belfast Airport often come from Londonderry and travelling from there is relatively easy. When leaving Londonderry take the A6 until it becomes the M22 motorway. Drive along the motorway for a short stretch and turn off onto the A26. Follow the A26 southwards and turn off at Dublin road which leads towards the site and the Belfast Airport parking facilities.
 
From The East
 
Most travellers coming from the East are usually driving from the city of Belfast. To drive to the airport from Belfast simply leave the city on the A52. Follow this road and eventually turn on to the A26 heading northwards. Turn off the A26 onto the A57 and this road will take drivers straight towards the airport and the Belfast Airport parking facilities. The airport will be clearly signposted once drivers are approaching the site.

Domestic Flights
 
Due to the size of Northern Ireland there are no domestic flights within the country. However passengers can fly to other parts of the UK from Belfast International Airport. Airlines such as Easyjet, BMIbaby, Jet2 and Manx2 fly to destinations including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham, Leeds, Blackpool, the Isle of Man and many more.
 
If a businessman is travelling to another part of the UK for a short trip they need not worry about parking because leaving a car at the Belfast Airport parking facilities is easy.
