What to know before your transfer at Alghero Airport (AHO)
Tolls, charges, terminal pickup zones and local rules that affect your private transfer at Alghero Airport (AHO).
Single Terminal, Dedicated Arrivals Exit
Alghero Airport has one terminal. Your driver waits at the arrivals baggage-hall exit holding a name sign. No desk, counter or kiosk—just the main exit from baggage reclaim. Free 60-minute wait included if your flight is delayed.
SS291 Road to City Centre
The main SS291 connects the airport to Alghero city centre, 10 km south. Normal journey time 20–30 minutes. Peak traffic 8–9 AM and 5–7 PM adds ~15 minutes. Road is direct and well-signposted; no motorway tolls apply.
ZTL Zone Fees Included
Alghero's historic centre has a ZTL restricting vehicle access 00:00–08:00, 10:30–14:30, 16:30–24:00. All ZTL authorizations and access charges are included in your fixed Transfeero price. Zero extra fees; driver navigates legally and you pay nothing more.
NCC Licensed Professional Drivers
All Transfeero partners in Italy hold the official NCC (Noleggio con Conducente) licence, Italy's legal requirement for pre-booked private hire. Your driver is fully insured, professionally trained, and authorised to operate airport transfers throughout Sardinia.
Transfer insights for Alghero Airport
Alghero Airport has a single terminal handling all arrivals and departures. Passengers clear immigration and collect baggage before exiting to the arrivals baggage-hall exit, where the driver meets you with a name sign. The terminal has a dedicated taxi rank outside, but pre-booked private transfers avoid queues entirely. There are no forecourt pickup fees or hidden charges for meeting you at the arrivals exit—it's included in every booking.
The journey from airport to Alghero city centre follows the SS291 road for approximately 10 km, taking 20–30 minutes in normal conditions. Morning peak between 8–9 AM and evening peak between 5–7 PM add roughly 15 extra minutes to the journey. Outside these windows, the drive is straightforward, and the road is well-maintained with clear signage to the city. The route bypasses the historic walled centre entirely, arriving directly at your accommodation or chosen destination.
Alghero's ZTL (Zona a Traffico Limitato) restricts vehicle access to the historic old town during specific hours: 00:00–08:00, 10:30–14:30, and 16:30–24:00 on most streets, with stricter limits on Via Mazzini (20:00–07:00). A Transfeero fixed price includes all charges related to accessing any area—tolls, road fees, and zone authorizations are all covered at no extra cost, so you never pay surprise fees. There are no low-emission zone charges affecting airport transfers on Sardinia.
Taxis from the rank typically charge €20–25 during the day with a 40% surcharge between midnight and 7 AM, and queues regularly extend 30+ minutes during peak arrival times. The public bus (ARST Line ALFA) costs €1.00 with a ticket machine but requires navigating luggage onto a crowded shuttle. A pre-booked Transfeero transfer eliminates waiting, guarantees a professional driver holding your name, and includes 60 minutes free wait for flight delays—invaluable if your arrival is delayed or you need time to collect checked bags.
