More Than Just Umrah Packages
Birmingham is home to approximately 300,000+ Muslims — the second largest Muslim population of any UK city after London. Areas like Bordesley Green, Alum Rock, Small Heath, Sparkbrook, and Sparkhill rank among the highest Muslim-density postcodes in England. For Birmingham’s Muslim community, Umrah is not simply a pilgrimage — it is a generational tradition. Pakistani, Kashmiri, and Bangladeshi families in Birmingham have been performing Umrah for decades, with many completing their first Tawaf as children accompanying parents or grandparents.
Birmingham Airport (BHX) operates flights to Jeddah throughout the year — a direct or near-direct connection to the holiest city on earth that makes Birmingham one of the UK’s most convenient Umrah departure cities. For Midlands Muslims, there is no need to travel to London Heathrow or Manchester for your pilgrimage. Your local airport serves Makkah.
At Packages Umrah, we are a Manchester-based ATOL-protected Umrah agency that fully serves Birmingham and the West Midlands — with departures from Birmingham Airport (BHX). Our packages start from £699 per person for 7 nights (3 star), £869 for 4 star, and £1,099 for 5 star. All prices are £20 below comparable Birmingham market rates. We are not a Birmingham-based agency — but we are lower priced, ATOL protected, and fully committed to serving Birmingham’s Muslim community with the same quality of service that our Manchester clients receive.

Birmingham Airport is one of the UK’s principal Umrah departure hubs. Here are the routes available to Birmingham pilgrims:
Route | Frequency | Airlines | Notes for Birmingham Pilgrims |
BHX → Jeddah (direct/near) | Multiple weekly | Saudi Arabian Airlines, TUI | Best option — minimal transit. ~7 hours |
BHX → Jeddah via Istanbul | Year-round | Turkish Airlines | Competitive fares — adds ~2–3 hrs via IST |
BHX → Jeddah via Dubai | Frequent | Emirates, Flydubai | Via Dubai — premium Emirates or budget Flydubai |
BHX → Jeddah via Doha | Daily | Qatar Airways | Excellent comfort via Doha hub |
BHX → Madinah (seasonal) | Peak Umrah season | Saudi Arabian Airlines | Direct to Madinah when available — ideal |
Honest recommendation for most Birmingham pilgrims: Saudi Arabian Airlines direct from Birmingham to Jeddah is the cleanest option — no transit, approximately 7 hours direct flight. Turkish Airlines via Istanbul is a competitive alternative particularly for budget-conscious Birmingham pilgrims. Emirates via Dubai is excellent for those who prefer comfort and frequency. We confirm the best routing for your specific travel dates and budget at booking.

Birmingham Airport (BHX) is located in Bickenhill, between Birmingham and Solihull, approximately 8 miles from Birmingham City Centre. The M42 motorway provides the primary access route from most of Birmingham. The Birmingham Airport rail station connects to New Street via the Air-Rail Link and Cross-City Line.
We serve the entire West Midlands region from Birmingham Airport — not just Birmingham city. Here is the guide for Midlands Muslims:
West Midlands Town | Key Muslim Community | To BHX Airport | Travel Note |
Wolverhampton | Large Pakistani, Bangladeshi communities | ~35–40 min | M6 to M42 to BHX |

Birmingham has a large number of Umrah agencies — many of them based in Sparkbrook, Alum Rock, and the surrounding South Asian community areas. We are Manchester-based. Here is why Birmingham Muslims choose us anyway:
Birmingham’s local Umrah agencies carry the overhead of high-street offices in Alum Rock, Sparkbrook, and Bordesley Green — areas where commercial rents, staffing, and walk-in premises represent significant costs. These costs are reflected in pricing. Our Manchester base carries lower overhead, which we pass directly to Birmingham customers as consistently lower prices. Every package we offer is £20 per person cheaper than a comparable package from a Birmingham high-street Umrah agency. For a family of four, this is an £80 saving. For a group of ten, it is £200.
Some online Umrah booking platforms route Birmingham pilgrims through London Heathrow — adding 2–3 hours of travel to what should be a local departure. We specifically arrange Birmingham Airport (BHX) departures for all Birmingham and West Midlands clients. You depart from your city’s airport, on the routing we confirm at booking, with the airline we advise is best for your travel dates. Your journey to Saudi Arabia begins in Birmingham.
Our ATOL protection is issued by the UK Civil Aviation Authority and applies to every Packages Umrah booking regardless of where we or you are based. A Birmingham pilgrim who books with us has the same government-backed financial protection as if they booked with a Sparkbrook travel agent. ATOL protection is verifiable at caa.co.uk — our number is displayed on packagesumrah.co.uk. There is no advantage to booking with a local agency over ATOL-related concerns — the protection is identical.
Everything Birmingham pilgrims need from a Umrah agency can be done by WhatsApp (+44 7737 144335) and email. Quotes same day. Documents submitted digitally. Visa processed on your behalf via Nusuk. Payments made online. Your travel pack — e-tickets, hotel vouchers, itinerary — delivered digitally. Many of our Birmingham clients have never spoken to us by phone and managed their entire Umrah booking via WhatsApp from Alum Rock, Sparkhill, and Handsworth. The absence of a Birmingham office does not affect the quality of your booking or the strength of your ATOL protection.
Our team serves Birmingham Muslims in both English and Urdu — the primary languages of Birmingham’s Pakistani, Kashmiri, and Bangladeshi communities. For Birmingham families where grandparents or parents communicate more comfortably in Urdu, this is not a minor courtesy — it is the difference between understanding your Umrah package fully and relying on a younger family member to translate. Every Packages Umrah interaction — from initial enquiry to post-trip follow-up — is available in both languages.
All prices per person, quad sharing, departing from Birmingham Airport (BHX). Include return flights, Umrah visa, hotel in Makkah and Madinah, and ground transport. £20 below comparable Birmingham market rates. Off-peak prices shown. Ramadan and peak months are higher — see the 12-month guide below.

Our most popular Birmingham package. Seven nights from BHX — 4 in Makkah, 3 in Madinah — covers a complete Umrah in a standard annual leave block or school holiday window. Birmingham families using Easter, October half-term, or the Christmas holiday often align a 7-night package with their specific school break. For Birmingham working professionals — teachers, healthcare workers, business owners — a 7-night package uses 5 days of annual leave for a full week of Ibadah in the holy cities. Birmingham Airport’s direct Jeddah services make the 7-night package particularly efficient: you are at the Haram within hours of leaving BHX.
Our standard recommendation for Birmingham families making their first Umrah. Ten nights — six in Makkah, four in Madinah — gives Birmingham pilgrims the time to experience both holy cities properly without feeling rushed. Six Makkah nights means time for multiple Tawafs at different hours of the day (morning Fajr Tawaf, post-Maghrib Tawaf, spontaneous night Tawaf), multiple historical Ziyarat visits, and a daily prayer rhythm that begins to feel natural by day three. Four Madinah nights gives time for the Rawdah, Masjid Quba, Jabal Uhud, and the evening atmosphere of the Prophet’s city. Birmingham pilgrims who upgrade from 7 to 10 nights consistently report the extra three nights are the best value addition to their Umrah.
Our 12 night Birmingham package is excellent value for extended family trips and retired Birmingham pilgrims who want nearly two weeks in the holy cities. The 12-night rate occasionally undercuts the 10-night equivalent in certain booking windows — check with us on current rates. Birmingham’s Pakistani and Kashmiri families have a strong tradition of extended Umrah travel, particularly when elderly grandparents or parents are included in the party and benefit from the additional time and a slower pace.
Two weeks from Birmingham to the holy cities. Our 14 night package is for Birmingham Muslims who want the definitive pilgrimage experience — 8 nights in Makkah and 6 in Madinah, establishing a daily worship rhythm in both cities that a shorter trip cannot achieve. For retired Birmingham Muslims and those with maximum annual leave, the 14-night package consistently delivers the most spiritually complete non-Ramadan Umrah available from the UK. Birmingham’s close-knit Pakistani community tradition of extended family Umrah travel — groups of 8–15 family members across multiple generations — is particularly well-served by the 14-night duration.
Birmingham’s Muslim community spans the entire city. Here is specific guidance for each major area:
Sparkbrook and Sparkhill are at the heart of Birmingham’s Pakistani and Kashmiri Muslim community. The Balti Triangle — the famous cluster of Pakistani restaurants and businesses along Ladypool Road, Stoney Lane, and Stratford Road — sits in the middle of one of the UK’s most vibrant South Asian Muslim communities. Birmingham Airport is approximately 20–25 minutes from Sparkbrook via the A34 and M42. Sparkbrook and Sparkhill families are among our most regular Birmingham Umrah bookings — particularly for Ramadan (March), August school holidays, and Christmas school holiday packages.
Small Heath and Bordesley Green rank among the highest Muslim-density postcodes in England. The community along Small Heath Highway, Bordesley Green Road, and Alum Rock Road is predominantly Pakistani, with significant Bangladeshi and Somali populations. Birmingham Airport is approximately 20–25 minutes from this area via A452 or A45. Small Heath families frequently book group Umrah packages with us — extended family parties of 8–15 people travelling together from the same street or neighbourhood mosque.
The North Birmingham Muslim communities of Handsworth, Lozells, and Aston span Pakistani, Bangladeshi, and West African populations. Birmingham Airport is approximately 25–30 minutes from Handsworth via the A34 or M6. Aston (B6) also has a significant Pakistani community centred around Witton Road and the surrounding streets. North Birmingham families using Birmingham Airport benefit from the M6 motorway connection — a straightforward motorway drive without city traffic.
Balsall Heath and Moseley host a diverse Muslim community including Pakistani, Bangladeshi, and Somali populations. The area is approximately 20–25 minutes from Birmingham Airport via the A435 or Pershore Road and M42. Moseley’s Muslim community has historically been associated with Birmingham’s intellectual and professional Muslim population, and we regularly serve Moseley and Balsall Heath professionals booking solo or couple Umrah packages in September, October, and November — the months that suit professional schedules best.
North Birmingham’s Muslim communities in Erdington and Perry Barr are approximately 30–35 minutes from Birmingham Airport via A38M or M6. We serve North Birmingham pilgrims with the same Birmingham Airport departure packages as the rest of the city — and advise that October and November packages are particularly popular with North Birmingham’s Pakistani community for their combination of off-peak pricing and comfortable conditions.
Every Birmingham departure package includes:
We arrange return flights from Birmingham Airport. Saudi Arabian Airlines direct Jeddah services from BHX are the primary recommendation. We also arrange Turkish Airlines (via Istanbul), Emirates (via Dubai), Qatar Airways (via Doha), and Flydubai services depending on your travel dates and budget preferences.

Available from Birmingham GP practices and travel clinics including Boots Pharmacy.

Airport transfers (Jeddah or Madinah), intercity coach between Makkah and Madinah, and return airport transfers are all included. Private vehicle upgrades available — recommended for Birmingham elderly pilgrims and multi-generational family groups.
Our team is on WhatsApp (+44 7737 144335) throughout your Saudi Arabia stay — in English and Urdu. Named agent contact, not a call centre. Birmingham pilgrims receive the same standard of in-journey support as our Manchester clients.

Umrah is a voluntary Islamic pilgrimage to Makkah that can be performed at any time of the year. It is open to all Muslims worldwide, regardless of age or gender, provided women under 45 are accompanied by a Mahram.
Hajj is the compulsory annual pilgrimage performed during the Islamic month of Dhul Hijjah and is one of the Five Pillars of Islam. Umrah is a voluntary pilgrimage that can be performed throughout the year and is often referred to as the “lesser pilgrimage.”
The actual rituals of Umrah — Ihram, Tawaf, Sa’i, and Halq or Taqsir — can be completed in a few hours. However, most pilgrims spend 7 to 14 days in Saudi Arabia to maximise their time in worship at the Haram.
Umrah can be performed throughout the year. However, Ramadan is considered the most spiritually rewarding time, as performing Umrah during this month holds the reward equivalent to Hajj. January to March also offer cooler temperatures and a peaceful atmosphere.
Our Umrah packages typically include return flights from the UK, hotel accommodation in both Makkah and Madinah, airport transfers, Umrah visa processing, and 24/7 customer support. Full details are listed on each individual package page.
