Transportation from the City Center to Lanzarote Airport
Lanzarote Airport is an easy-to-reach airport with an average distance of 7 km from the city center. For this, you can go to the airport with line 22 passing through Arrecife.
This line operates only on weekdays and departs approximately every 25 minutes between 06.55 in the morning and 22.30 in the evening. It arrives in Arrecife after a 35-minute journey. For more detailed information, you can check the airport website.
On weekends, you can use the bus line 23, which carries its passengers to the airport on the Playa Honda and Arrecife lines. This line passes approximately every 50 minutes between 07:00 in the morning and 21:00 in the evening.
If you are going to take the bus from Puerto del Carmen and Playa Blanca route, you should take lines 161 and 261. These buses run every 30 minutes between 08.30 in the morning and 23.30 in the evening on weekdays, and between 09.00 and 23.00 on the remaining days. The frequency of buses, which run less frequently on weekends, decreases to once an hour on Saturdays and to once every 2 hours on Sundays and public holidays.
Taking a taxi in the city center is a little more difficult than taking a taxi from the airport. If you have not called the taxi by phone, you cannot call any taxi you want from the road. The reason for this is that taxis are only authorized to take passengers from whichever administrative unit on the island is registered.
In this context, you raise your hand, but if the taxi cannot take passengers, it does not stop and continues. You try until you find the right taxi, or you go to a stop, or you can ask your hotel to call a taxi for you as the shortest solution. The distance is on average 7 km and usually takes less than 10 minutes.
You can reach the airport effortlessly, by arranging the private airport transfer, which is the most comfortable option, either from the reception of your hotel or from professional websites serving globally.
