Compare the main options
Many European airports offer a mix of train, metro, coach, taxi, private transfer and car hire. The best option depends on arrival time, group size, luggage and hotel location.
Late arrivals
For evening flights, check whether public transport is still operating and how often services run. A cheap late flight can lose its advantage if the only practical transfer is expensive.
Families and groups
For several travellers, compare the total group cost rather than the per-person public transport fare. Door-to-door transport can become competitive for larger parties.
