Arrival Day
- You will receive your exact check-in instructions approximately two days before the start of your program. You are responsible for getting to your apartment from the airport.
- If you arrive at the Valencia airport, you have a few options:
- Taxi: you can go to the taxi stand or reserve an Uber / Cabify / FreeNow to take you directly to your apartment.
- Metro: The Aeroport metro station is located one floor below the arrivals level. Upon exiting the arrivals hall, go left and follow the signs for "METRO." You’ll find an escalator and an elevator on your right that take you one floor down. Tickets can be purchased at the ticket counter or from one of the ticket machines. Both metro lines from this station go to the center of Valencia, which you can reach in approximately 20-25 minutes. Don’t throw away your ticket, you need it to exit the metro and it can be recharged.
- Bus: You can also choose to travel by bus from the airport. It’s useful to know that the ‘Aero bus’ only stops at a limited number of locations in Valencia. If your accommodation is not close to one of these stops, it might be more convenient to take the metro or a taxi instead. The buses run between 5:25 AM and 10:00 PM (every 26 minutes) Price: €1.45 Bus Line: 150
Single Ticket: €5.80 (€4.80 + €1.00 for the card, which is a one-time purchase).
Are you traveling with two people? You can choose to buy two tickets on one card to travel from the airport to the city center. Two tickets will cost €8.80.
If you’re traveling together with more than one person and also plan to take the metro back to the airport, it’s best to purchase one ten-ride card (“Bonometro”) for Zone ABCD. This is the most economical option. With this card, up to five people can travel together, provided it’s only used for trips to and from the airport. A ten-ride card costs €21.00.
