Airport pickups

Our airport pickup service operates from London Heathrow Airport (LHR) on selected dates to coincide with the start of International Welcome Week in September and in January. We also run the service prior to the start of Pre-sessional English classes in August.

Currently we are offering the following pick-up date:

Monday 27 January - this pickup is suitable for students joining International Welcome Week, which begins on Tuesday 28 January. We can accept bookings from students whose flights are scheduled to arrive up to 15.00 on 28 January. Currently we have scheduled DMU bus departures from the airport from 11.00 until 18.00. Online bookings for this pickup will close on Monday 20 January.

When you make your booking, you will be asked to confirm that you understand and accept the terms and conditions of the service.

Luggage allowance - There will be limited luggage space on the bus and for practical reasons we operate a luggage policy. You are welcome to bring the onto the bus -

EITHER one large item (maximum size 75cm x 50cm x 32cm) OR two medium items (maxiumum size of each 70cm x 45cm x 30cm).

In addition to this you are welcome to bring hand luggage (cabin baggage).

After receiving your booking we will email you within one working day, with confirmation of your booking. If you do not see our email, please add arrivals@dmu.ac.uk to your email address book and check your spam or junk folder.

We will contact you if we have any questions about your booking. Final joining information will be sent to you a week before the date of the pickup.
