Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals area of the airport's single terminal, after baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name; the car is parked in the Pick Up & Drop Off car park, about a one-minute walk from the terminal.

Ilkley lies about 17 km north-west of the airport in Wharfedale, roughly 20 minutes by road. The route leaves on the A658 and crosses the Chevin, the ridge above Otley, on minor roads before joining the A660 into Otley and then the A65 along the valley through Burley-in-Wharfedale. The Chevin roads are narrow and steep in places and can be affected by ice in winter, when the main roads through Pool may be used instead.
Ilkley is a small town on the River Wharfe below Ilkley Moor. The centre is compact, with The Grove and Brook Street holding most of the shops and cafes, and the railway station on Station Road in the middle of town. The Cow and Calf rocks and the open moor are on the southern hillside about 2 km from the centre and can be reached by road. The riverside and the old bridge lie on the northern side of town, and the River Wharfe continues upstream towards Addingham and the Yorkshire Dales.
Public transport instead: Transdev (FLYER) bus FLYER A1 from Leeds Bradford Airport bus stops at the terminal to Leeds City Bus Station via Horsforth and Kirkstall, every 30 minutes, early morning until late at night, seven days a week. Northern train Leeds to Ilkley line from Leeds station to Ilkley, 1 change. No direct public transport from the airport to Ilkley: take FLYER A1 to Leeds city centre and the Northern train on the Leeds to Ilkley line.
