Fuerteventura Airport Buses
There are three bus routes available at the airport and the bus stops are located just outside the terminal building, near to the departures hall entrance. All of these routes are operated by Tiadhe and the telephone number for information is: (+34) 928 85 57 26.
Please note that tickets cannot be bought online or in advance. There is also no benefit for buying a return ticket, as the price is the same as two single tickets.
If you are planning to use the bus a lot during your holiday you can buy a non-resident 'Bono Card' which gives you 5% off all your fares. You can ask for a Bono Card when you pay for your ticket or if you want to try out your Spanish, ask for 'tarjeta no residente'. The card costs €2.00 and you can fill it with whatever credit amount you choose. When your credit runs out you just top it up on the bus.

Travelling by Bus
The buses in Fuerteventura are clean, relatively cheap and usually on time, so they can be a good and cost-effective way of getting around the island for people who don't want to drive or take an organised tour.
However, careful planning is required when visiting some locations as the service can be very infrequent. Also, if you are in a group the fares can soon mount up, in which case hiring a car might be the better option. If you are interested in hiring a car, you can find out more on this page.
