Regional airports are the Liverpool John Lennon Airport and Manchester International Airport . Both are ~30-40 mins by car from the laboratory. Taxi and train services (to Warrington Central) are also available.

If you are travelling to any of the London airports the easiest way to commute is to take the train to Warrington Bank Quay from London Euston.
