Bedworth to East Midlands Airport is 34.6 miles and takes between 41 and 49 minutes by road. Timing matters on this one: there is 8 minutes between the quickest and slowest hour. Hampton Travel covers it as pre-booked private hire with a named driver confirmed the night before and a fixed price agreed in writing before you travel.
Measured for each departure time rather than quoted as a single average, because they are not the same journey.
| Leave Bedworth at | Drive time | Route |
|---|---|---|
| 04:00 | 42 min | Clear roads |
| 07:00 | 44 min | B4113 / M6 J3 |
| 10:00 | 43 min | B4113 / M6 J3 |
| 16:00 | 49 min | B4113 / M6 J3 |
| 19:00 | 41 min | B4113 / M6 J3 |
That 8 minute spread is the difference between comfortable and tight, and on this route it is the 16:00 hour that costs you the extra 8 minutes.
For a 07:00 departure from East Midlands Airport we would collect you from Bedworth at about 04:14 for a short-haul flight, or 03:14 for long haul. That allows the measured drive plus the standard advice to arrive two hours before short haul and three before long haul.

The return from East Midlands Airport to Bedworth is where the hour you land starts to matter. These are measured, not estimated.
| You land at | Drive back to Bedworth | Home by roughly |
|---|---|---|
| 10:00, a morning landing | 43 min | 11:28 |
| 16:00, an afternoon landing | 49 min | 17:34 |
| 19:00, an evening landing | 41 min | 20:26 |
Times allow 45 minutes from wheels-down to being in the car, which covers immigration, bags and the walk out. A late landing means a quieter road, so the drive itself is often faster than the outbound.
If the inbound is delayed we track it and send the driver to the actual landing time, not the one you booked. No waiting charge either way.
We leave Bedworth on the B4113 and join at M6 J3. At 34.6 miles it is a longer run. The slowest hour we have measured on it is 16:00 at 49 minutes, against 41 at 19:00. That is the window to plan around.
We work the pickup time back from it and confirm your driver the night before.
