Taxi Transfer from Thessaloniki Airport
Travel quickly and comfortably from SKG Airport by taking a Thessaloniki airport taxi. The city's blue taxis operate 24/7 from the official rank and offer safe, regulated, door-to-door transfers. In normal traffic, the ride to the city centre takes about 30 minutes.
Always use the official taxi rank to avoid unlicensed drivers. If you prefer guaranteed availability and a price agreed in advance, you can pre-book a transfer.
Thessaloniki Airport Taxi Fares
Airport taxis are metered: the fare depends on distance, time and traffic, and a higher tariff applies at night (00:00 to 05:00). The city centre is about 13 km away, roughly a 30-minute ride. Make sure the meter is running. If you want a guaranteed, fixed price, agree it before you set off or pre-book a transfer.
For a pre-paid, fixed-fare option, many travellers use Welcome Pickups: English-speaking drivers, flat pre-paid fares, flight tracking, and 24/7 support with free cancellation.
SKG Airport Taxi Rank
The official taxi rank is in the Arrivals area, between Terminals 1 and 2 (between Exit 3 and Exit 4). Taxis are usually waiting, though you may queue briefly at peak times.
Airport Taxi to Your Hotel
A taxi is the most convenient way to reach your hotel in Thessaloniki or the surrounding areas. Have your hotel's name and address written down to show the driver and avoid any mix-ups.
