Before you land

The parts people get wrong. Each one links to where we checked it.

  • Fixed fare

    The airport line A3247 is priced outside the ordinary Bizkaibus zone system: Bizkaia states a flat €5 for the occasional ticket on this line for anyone not using a Barik card. The zone table on the fares page does not apply to it.

  • Hours

    Buses leave the airport for Bilbao from 06:10 to 23:40, every 15 minutes at :10, :25, :40 and :55. In the other direction the last bus to the airport goes at 22:00, an hour and a half earlier.

  • Tickets

    The occasional ticket can be paid for by bank card at the Bizkaibus cabin in the airport, and there is a customer service desk and ticket office on the arrivals floor. If you pay with a Barik card instead you have to validate it twice — getting on and getting off.

  • Where to go

    The bus runs to Termibus by way of Gran Vía 79, Plaza Moyúa and Alameda Recalde 11, so for much of central Bilbao there is a closer stop than the terminus.
