Airport Bus Murcia
IMPORTANT: Murcia-San Javier Airport is replaced (after several delays) by the new Región de Murcia International Airport, opened on 15 January 2019. Murcia-San Javier Airport now operates only as military airport.
Murcia Airport known as San Javier Airport is a military airport located 27km southeast of Murcia, in San Javier, Spain. Since it is a small international airport, featuring seasonal flights mostly to United Kingdom, in 2016 it handled only 1.1 million passengers.
Due to the airport’s size, public transport is not extensive.
Bus:
Taxi services: In case you have missed those rare bus departures, taxi is the only option for reaching the city centre. There is a taxi rank at the airport. You will have to pay 3,50€ for pick-up at the airport and 0,50€ in case you have luggage. The average cost of taking a taxi to Murcia is 55€.
Transfer: If you don’t like riding in a bus and hesitate to take a taxi, consider booking a private transfer which will wait for you at the airport and take you to your hotel or wherever you need to go. The transfer company will send a professional driver to pick you up. You can even pre-order a child safety seat if you’re travelling with a child.
Renting a car at Murcia airport: For those of you who would like to reach the city and explore the area on their own, the best option is to rent a car directly at the airport. There are only three car rental companies there, Goldcar, Europcar and Firefly. Save time and book your car online.
Renting a bus at Murcia airport: For bigger groups of passengers, we advise you to rent a bus at the airport. However, it is necessary to book it online, so the bus rental companies have enough time to inform you on the meeting point and all other information.
