Official taxi or private transfer at a fixed price to Alicante centre, Benidorm, Torrevieja and the whole Costa Blanca. Book online from €43.
Alicante-Elche Airport has an official taxi rank located right outside the arrivals exit. All taxis are regulated by the Elche municipality and fitted with a meter. Alternatively, private transfers booked online offer a fixed price agreed in advance and the guarantee of a driver waiting for you with a sign showing your name.
The official ALC taxi applies a metered fare plus an airport surcharge. The trip to Alicante centre usually costs 20 to 28 euros depending on traffic and luggage. For Benidorm, expect 95 to 130 euros depending on the time of day. Card payment is accepted in most vehicles, but it's best to keep some cash on hand to avoid problems if the card terminal fails.
The main advantage of a private transfer booked online is price predictability: the amount shown at booking is the total you pay, regardless of traffic jams. The driver tracks your flight in real time and adapts to any delays at no extra cost. The service runs 24 hours a day, even for night flights, unlike buses which stop running late in the evening.

When booking a private transfer, several options can be added at no extra cost or for a small fee to adapt the journey to your needs.
An official taxi from the airport to Alicante centre usually costs between 20 and 28 euros depending on traffic. A private transfer booked online is offered from 43 euros with a guaranteed fixed price.
The official rank is right at the exit of the arrivals area, in front of the terminal. It is open 24/7 and clearly marked with yellow "Taxi" signs.
Booking is possible up to 24 hours before arrival. To guarantee availability during peak season or for a night transfer, it's recommended to book 3 to 7 days in advance.
The driver tracks your flight in real time using the flight number provided at booking. They adjust their arrival time at no extra cost, with a free waiting period of 60 to 90 minutes after landing.
After collecting your luggage, head to the arrivals area: the driver will be waiting for you there with a sign showing your name or the provider's logo. A contact phone number is provided in your booking confirmation.
Yes, the official taxi applies a night rate between 10pm and 6am, with a surcharge of around 15 to 20%. The private transfer keeps the same rate day and night, making it more advantageous for a night flight.
Official taxis accept both payment methods, but card payment can be an issue if the terminal fails. Private transfers are paid online at booking or in cash/by card to the driver, depending on the option chosen.
A 7-passenger minibus to Alicante centre costs from 70-85 euros, and to Benidorm from 130-150 euros. The rate per passenger is lower compared to an individual taxi.
