About Bilbao Airport (BIO)
BIO is a proper international airport, the busiest in northern Spain, with a striking white terminal by Santiago Calatrava that locals call La Paloma. It flies to Madrid and Barcelona many times a day and to London, Paris, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Lisbon and dozens of European cities, which makes it the natural connection for long-haul itineraries that avoid Biarritz’s short list of routes. The terminal is compact for its size: one check-in hall, one security line, gates a few minutes away.
The route from Biarritz Airport is motorway all the way: A63 to the border, AP-8 along the Gipuzkoa coast and past Bilbao, then the airport spur north of the city. Anthony drops departing passengers on the departures kerb outside the terminal and, for arrivals, waits in the arrivals hall with the flight tracked, so a delayed connection moves the pickup rather than the price.
Highlights
- Calatrava’s La Paloma terminal, the busiest airport in northern Spain
- Flights to Madrid, Barcelona and most European hubs that Biarritz does not serve
- Departures-kerb drop-off and arrivals-hall pickup with the flight tracked
- Twelve kilometres from Bilbao centre and the Guggenheim, on the AP-8 side of the city

Frequently asked questions
Where do I find my driver when I land at Biarritz Airport?
In the outdoor car park of Biarritz Pays Basque Airport, a short walk from the terminal exit. The airport is small: as soon as you land you receive a message with your driver’s live location, so you meet within moments. For a tailored welcome, the “Premium welcome with name sign” option means your driver waits directly at the baggage-hall exit. From the car it is 115 minutes to Bilbao Airport (BIO).
What if my flight into Biarritz is late?
Nothing changes for you. The flight number you give at booking is monitored, the pickup time moves with the actual landing time and there is no waiting charge for a delayed flight. The price to Bilbao Airport (BIO) stays at €408.
How much is a transfer from Biarritz Airport to Bilbao Airport?
€408 one way for the car and up to four passengers, AP-8 tolls included, for a drive of about 115 minutes over 143.2 km. The fare is fixed when you book, whatever the traffic at the border.
How long before my flight from Bilbao Airport should I leave Biarritz Airport?
Add the airline’s check-in time to the 115-minute drive: two hours for a European flight with checked luggage, three for a long-haul connection, ninety minutes with hand luggage and online check-in. The motorway is reliable outside the summer weekend peaks at the border, when a further quarter of an hour is wise.
Can you pick us up at Bilbao Airport and take us to Biarritz?
Yes. Give the flight number when you book: the arrival is tracked, the pickup follows the real landing time and Anthony waits in the arrivals hall. The drop-off can be Biarritz Airport, Biarritz station or any hotel on the French Basque Coast.
