Directions from Bastia International Airport to Bastia City Centre
Bastia International Airport (BIA) is Corsica’s second busiest airport, with over 3 million yearly visitors. It is located on the northern end of the island, around 21 km from the city centre, taking around 25 minutes to reach in a Bastia taxi.
To get to the centre from the airport, your Bastia airport taxi driver will take the T11 from D507, following “Bastia”. They will then take CR Henri Pierangeli to rue Cardinal Viale Prelà, before taking the 2nd exit onto Rue Miot. Your driver will turn left onto Cr Henri Pierangeli and continue onto Rue Cardinal Viale Prelà. They will stay on this road until you reach Bastia’s city centre, ”Place de marché”, or your Bastia hotel.
Bastia Airport Taxi Fares
Various taxi companies operate in and around the city, and for the most part, they are private taxi companies. Taxis in Bastia use a taximeter to calculate their fares based on the time of day and distance travelled. Thus, your 25-minute journey into Bastia city centre should cost around €40.
Please note that there is a 20% surcharge from 19:00 to 07:00, including Sundays and public holidays.
Nonetheless, if you wish to travel at a competitive, set rate with no hidden fees, it is highly recommended to pre-book your Bastia airport shuttle with Welcome Pickups.
