A Coruña to Porto Airport by busA Coruña to Porto Airport by Bus: A Practical Route for International Flights
By Estefanía Ojea

It seems that there are a lot of people from Galicia who travel from Porto Airport when they are going abroad. Indeed, there are a lot of flights from TAP Air Portugal to different places in the world, so it’s a very common airport for people from Galicia to travel from. As for me, when I was going to the Azores, I was taking the bus from A Coruña to Porto Airport. It’s not a very short trip, but it’s not very complicated either if you are going to one of the main international airports in the area.

Train station on way to Porto
Route overview
The route from A Coruña to Porto Airport (Aeroporto Francisco Sá Carneiro) is approximately 300 kilometers. There are various bus companies traveling to Porto, and some of the buses go directly to the airport or to the city of Porto with a short connection to the airport by metro or taxi. The trip from A Coruña to Porto takes approximately 4 to 5 hours.
Transportation experience
The bus was a long-distance bus leaving from A Coruña, and it was going southwards towards Portugal. This journey takes a similar path to the city buses in Porto, going through the region of Galicia before entering Portugal and then continuing towards Porto. As my destination was the airport, I had planned the trip well in advance before my flight. For a trip like this, time is very important, especially when you are relying on land transport for a flight.
Departure station
Most buses tend to start from the main bus terminal, the Estación de Autobuses de A Coruña. It is a bus station that is easily accessible and well connected to the rest of the city. It’s also not far from the city center, can be reached by local buses, and is located very close to the main train station.
Arrival station
Depending on the route, some of these buses arrive directly at Porto Airport, while others arrive at Campanhã or another station in Porto. If your bus arrives in the city, you can reach Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (Porto Airport) easily by metro using Line E.
Schedule & frequency
There are daily bus services from A Coruña and Porto/Porto Airport, and several departures depending on the day of the week. This route is obviously a popular route for international travel, and it should not be hard to find a bus service that suits your flight times.
Onboard experience & services
The buses on this route are standard long-distance coaches with reclining seats and storage space for luggage under the bus. Most passengers on a journey of several hours are happy to listen to the radio/music or take a nap while the bus makes its way south to Portugal.
Ticketing advice & budget breakdown
Prices differ depending on the company and how early you book your ticket. The cost of bus fare is relatively low compared to flying directly from Galicia. This is one of the reasons why this route is popular. Here is a rough idea of my trip:
| Item | Cost (eur) |
|---|---|
| Ticket price | €25 |
| Food & drinks | €8 |
| Travel to departure station | €2 |
| Travel from arrival station | €3 |
| Total | € 38 |
Top tips & recommendations
- Check if your bus is going directly to the airport or to the city of Porto first.
- Take your time before your flight in case of delays.
- Porto airport is well served by the metro in case of a transfer.
- Book your tickets in advance, especially during peak travel periods.
- Keep your luggage organized in case of a transfer.
