From Teynham, East Midlands Airport is about 170 miles by road, usually 3 hr 10 – 4 hr door to terminal. It's the 10th-closest of the 12 airports we serve from Teynham. That's around 5 minutes quicker than from Sheerness.
The usual route is the A249, M2, A2, Dartford Crossing (A282), M25, A414 and M1. Because it crosses the Thames at Dartford, timing matters: queues build quickly at busy times, so we always build in a margin.
