If you are hiring a car then the desks are all against the wall near the exit doors.

The only bus service from the airport is the 443 to Puerta Real. The main bus station is in the city centre offering extensive Alsa and local services.

If you prefer to get a taxi then there are always some available at the rank outside arrivals at a cost of between €15-20 during the working day into the city centre or approximately €60 to Ferrol. The local taxis are white with a green light on top which when lit indicates they are for hire. They are metered and airport journeys (to or from) will have a surcharge of about €3.

There is not a railway at the airport but the San Cristobal train station is about a ten minute walk from the bus station in the city centre. The RENFE train service there operates long distance and high speed services to Madrid, Barcelona and the French border. There are also local services connecting other Galician cities.
