Transportation from Aruba Airport to City Center

Aruba Airport or, officially, Queen Beatrix International Airport, is Aruba's main airport. The most economical way to get to the city from here is to use the city buses. ,

Almost all lines of Aruba's public transportation system, Arubus, depart from Oranjestad station. As soon as you exit the arrivals building, you will see the bus stop. Bus number 8 you will get on from here takes you through Barcadera and Pos Chiquitos stops and leaves you at Aruba stop. Depending on the traffic situation, it takes 10-20 minutes to reach the city center.

The bus runs from 06:00 to midnight. While it gets up every 15 minutes until 20:00, it starts to get up every hour after 20:40. On Sundays, these hours become less frequent. Click on the official website of Arabus to get direct information about the bus.

You can see the taxi rank as soon as you exit the airport terminal building. There are taxis available 24/7. These vehicles take you to all parts of the island, such as the hotel zone or the port, in a very short time, as the island is very small. You can pay the taxi fare in local currency or US dollars.

Taxis in Aruba also operate as if they were full. In other words, you can use the taxi alone or you can take other passengers waiting and split the fare. You can take a maximum of 5 people in a vehicle. There is an extra charge for suitcases other than 1 suitcase and a cabin bag.

Since taxi fares are determined by the government, it is against the law for car drivers to demand excessive fees. You can check this price list on the official website of Aruba Airport and show it to the driver in case of a problem.

The traffic in Aruba is so jammed from time to time that it can take up to 1 hour to reach your destination on the tiny island. For this reason, some passengers may even prefer to walk from the airport to the city center. The distance between the city center and the airport is only 2.5 km and it is mostly slopeless.

Although it is not generally preferred because the traffic is very congested, there are offices of many reliable car rental companies, including Budget and Avis, at the airport. You can find the full list and contact information on the airport's official page.
