From Piccadiily rail station all in, shoul take no more than 35 minutes to the museum.

We are open Weds Sat and Sundays only 10 -4.30pm. Play bus and colouring table for children, access to around 6 buses to explore. All under cover but a little cold at this time of year Probably a taxi would be best from the Airport as train / bus would take around an hour or Metrolink to Queens Rd - change at Victoria - is likely to take 70mins plus 10 min walk at the end There is the Runway Visitor Park (search on google) at the airport which has Concorde and various planes, plus viewing platforms for aircraft Hope this helps Paul W
