Getting there and away

Fuerteventura has no rail network, but the island has an efficient bus network and plenty of taxis to get to and from the airport.
Buses: There are three bus routes that stop at the airport:

• Route 3 – This travels north to Puerto del Rosario and south to Caleta de Fuste.
• Route 10 – This travels north to Puerto del Rosario and south to Morro Jable.
• Route 16 - This travels north to Puerto del Rosario and south to Gran Tarajal.

Taxis: All the taxis on the island are licenced, so they all have meters and the government sets the rates. Rates are set at €0.55 per kilometre on a weekday between 06:00 and 22:00. At any other time, the rate is €0.63 per kilometre. On top of this, there is also a minimum charge, a waiting charge (in case you are stuck in traffic) and an airport surcharge of €1.70.
