Gran Canaria Airport Buses

Eight bus routes are available to and from the airport. The bus stops are located just outside the terminal building, close to the entrance of the departures hall. The bus operator is Global (www.globalsu.es) and information on the website is available in English. The telephone numbers for information are: (+34) 902 38 11 10 or 928 25 26 30.

Tickets can be bought from various agents around the island but it is generally easier to buy them on the bus. Return tickets are not available so the outward and return journeys are the same price.

You can buy a discount card from the bus station in Las Palmas but it is only for use on a specific route and aimed at people who commute on a regular basis.

Gran Canaria by Bus

If there is a group of you, the fares can mount up, and to get to some of the more isolated parts of the island, the better option would be to hire a car.
