Getting to Seville Airport

Transport

Here’s a step by step guide to getting to Seville Airport. There are several airport transfers that will get you from Seville’s city center to your terminal.

The airport is very well connected to the city and other transport hubs (bus and train stations). Moreover, the cost is relatively cheap compared to other European cities. Your decision depends on your final destination.

You can have a look at the practical details related to Seville Airport.
Moreover, you can also read about how to get from the airport to the city center.

There are several options to get to the airport.

Bus. Despite it may not always be the fastest approach, there is one bus route serving the airport. It’s a good option when traveling from Santa Justa train station or Plaza de Armas bus station. Approximate cost: 4€ or 6€.
Taxi. Definitely the most expensive and the riskiest option I can imagine. Approximate cost: 25€.
Private Transfer. Obviously the most comfortable and fastest option. Approximate cost: depends on the people in your party.

There is no right or wrong option. It only depends on where you are lodged.

Allow plenty of time to get to the airport. Despite Seville public transport is very reliable, a mechanical breakdown or a traffic jam may come up.

Getting to Seville Airport by bus

The EA (Especial Aeropuerto) line buses offer a direct trip between the airport, Santa Justa train station and Plaza de Armas bus station. The buses are white with a big Bus Aeropuerto Sevilla sign on the windows.

From the city center to the airport, the Airport Express bus runs from 4:30 to 00:30.

The bus stop is outside the terminal, just in front of the Departures hall (floor 1) and tickets can be bought directly from the driver.

The buses frequency is between 13-20 minutes during the day and 35 minutes at night. The trip from Santa Justa should take no more than 30 minutes under normal traffic conditions.

Getting to Seville Airport by taxi

Reaching the airport by taxi is the fastest and most comfortable option. Moreover, it’s also the most expensive despite it could be interesting if you are a travel party of at least 4 people.

In Seville, taxis are easily recognizable. Official taxis are white with a yellow stripe and the coat-of-arms of the city. There are no special taxis to drive you to the airport; any taxi can take you there.

The trip between Seville and the airport takes about half an hour but it depends very much on the traffic conditions and your accommodation location.

The journey from the center of Seville to the airport should cost 23-30€. All taxis must have a fares chart displayed inside the vehicle.

Please note that there are 3 specific fares to/from the airport:

Fare 3: Monday to Friday from 7:00 to 21:00.
Fare 4:
- Monday to Friday from 21:00 to 7:00.
- Saturday, Sunday and holidays, during Semana Santa (Easter) and the April Fair from 7:00 to 21:00.
- On December 24th and 31st, all day.
Fare 5: During Holy Week from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday and during the April Fair, from Tuesday to Sunday from 21:00 to 7:00.

No taxi driver is allowed to charge you for your luggage, for departing from Santa Justa, or at night or during weekends. However, an extra charge can be added to this fare, if you have booked a taxi on the phone or through an app.

Getting to Seville Airport by private transfer

At your accommodation, your liaison staff member will be waiting for you, holding a sign with your name on it. He will help you with your luggage and lead you to the vehicle, most commonly a spacious, comfortable air-conditioned vehicle.

Your private driver will take you directly to Seville Airport (SVQ), where he will help you with your luggage before you enter the Departures hall.

While driving from your hotel to the airport, your driver will be polite and helpful, will not smoke, will drive carefully and observe traffic regulations.

Let me make this clear: this is not a common airport shuttle. You are booking your own private vehicle – it’s just for you (and your travel companions, if you have any).

Surprisingly, even though these fares are not much more than for a Seville taxi for some rides, and only moderately more for others, a private transfer is 1000% more comfortable, reliable, safe and pleasant than a Seville taxi. As such, a private transfer constitutes extremely good value for money.
