- Amazing company and service, can’t thank them enough! The booking process was so easy, all done through WhatsApp with almost instant response times. Prices were all agreed upfront at a much cheaper cost than Uber! The cars were very nice Mercedes minivans with air con etc, always on time, if not a few minutes early which was perfect when going to the airport! All of our drivers were great

All options, including public services and private transfers from Malaga Airport

A) Urban Buses: Operated by (EMT), these buses connect to Malaga city for €4 per ticket. They have a high frequency of every 20-25 minutes.

B) Intercity Buses: These buses either originate or have a direct departure from Malaga Airport or connect with the Malaga bus station. Private companies like ALSA and Avanza, as well as intercity buses provided by the public entity Junta de Andalucia, operate these services.

C) Long-Distance Buses: Connecting cities like Granada or Almeria directly from the airport, these services are offered only by private companies such as ALSA and Avanza.

D) Suburban Train: Operated by the public company (RENFE), the train connects Malaga Airport with the city center and nearby towns like Torremolinos, Benalmadena, and Fuengirola.

E) Long-Distance Train: There is no long-distance train service with a stop at Malaga Airport, but connections are available via the Maria Zambrano train station in the city center.

1) Regular Taxis: While regular taxis are considered services to the public (which is not the same as public service), they are operated by private individuals as private businesses but with regulations determined by the public administration, such as the number of available licenses, operating hours, and fares. At Malaga Airport, taxis can be found at the taxi rank outside the Terminal 3 building. If you want to know the approximate cost, visit the Malaga Airport taxi prices.

2) Shared Shuttles: Private transfer companies offer shared shuttle services as a cost-effective door-to-door option. They usually wait for several flights to arrive and then proceed to drop off passengers at their destinations. Typically, only the route from the airport to Estepona is covered, not the one to the Nerja area.

3) Apps like Uber and Bolt: These popular apps, operating worldwide, are also available in Malaga. They have their own parking for those requesting pick-up at Malaga Airport. However, they operate under dynamic pricing, which changes based on demand, usually high during peak seasons.

4) Private Transfer Companies: Here we can identify two distinct models:
4.1) Intermediary Companies: These brokers operate at various international airports and do not own their own fleet of cars. They do not have employees but collaborators who agree to provide these services in exchange for a commission to the intermediary agency.

4.2) Local Transfer Companies with Own Fleet: Companies like Shine Malaga Transfers operate as private transfer service agencies with their own drivers and car fleet. These local companies focus on providing the best service quality and customer care to differentiate themselves from mass-market companies that offer reduced prices and cannot focus on reliability and comfort.
