Brindisi Airport taxis prices
Brindisi Airport taxis use taximeters to calculate prices, meaning that your final fare depends on the distance travelled, the time of day, and so on. There’s no official Brindisi Airport to city centre taxi fare, your driver will use a taximeter to calculate the cost of your journey. Under light traffic conditions, you can expect to pay €20 for your journey into Brindisi. However, extra charges are imposed on Sundays, public holidays, late-night services, and when more than 4 people travel together.
That being said, a taxi from Brindisi Airport to the city centre for up to 4 passengers costs around €20 during the day. Lucce is another popular destination about 40 minutes from the airport, and this route costs around €110 in a standard taxi from the airport taxi rank, though these rates will increase at night.
To avoid the uncertainty of the taximeter, you can book your airport taxi with a reliable provider like Welcome Pickups. That way, you can secure a competitive fixed fare with no hidden fees.
