Transfer from Brindisi Salento Airport to Otranto
The journey from Brindisi Salento Airport to Otranto takes you inland via SS613 and SS16, passing through Lecce and the towns of Maglie, Cavallino and Trepuzzi before descending toward the Adriatic coast. You'll travel through the flat, sun-baked landscape of Salento, dotted with olive groves and whitewashed farmhouses, with glimpses of the Laghi Alimini lakes as you approach the coast.
Your driver will meet you at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of the terminal where your flight lands, holding a name sign; allow 60 minutes free wait if your flight is delayed, and your driver monitors your arrival in real time. The drive takes 1 hour 9 minutes in normal traffic, though summer weekends and early morning departures (7–9 a.m.) can add 15–20 minutes. All state roads are toll-free, and if your hotel is in Otranto's historic centre, your driver can help with luggage drop-off before parking outside the pedestrian zone.
Direct buses from the airport require a connection in Brindisi or Lecce and take 1 hour 45 minutes to 3 hours 12 minutes, costing €6–€13; airport taxis are unmetered and often quote €80–€120 for the same journey. A pre-booked private transfer gives you a confirmed driver, door-to-door service, and no hidden charges, making it the most reliable and stress-free option after a flight.
