At Menorca Airport (MAH) you can take a taxi from the rank, book a private transfer with a driver before you fly, or reserve a seat on a shared shuttle. The private transfer and the shuttle are arranged in advance; only the taxi takes you door to door without booking, and of those two, only the private transfer is for your group alone. Below you will see how they differ, how to check what each one costs and what to confirm before you pay.
The options at a glance
Four ways to leave the airport: a taxi from the rank, a private transfer, a shared shuttle and the public bus. The table shows how you get each one, who it fits and what to check, without quoting taxi or transfer prices, which change.
| Option | How you get it | Who it fits | How the price is set | What to check |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Taxi from the rank | Walk to the signed rank in arrivals; no booking. | Anyone who has not booked and wants to leave now. | Regulated fare; the official sheet is published by Aena. | Use only the signed rank and ask for a receipt. |
| Private transfer with a driver | Book before you fly; the confirmation says where to meet the driver. | Late arrivals, luggage, families and groups. | Quoted when you book. | That the quote is the total in euros and that it covers your luggage. |
| Shared shuttle | Book a seat in advance. | A solo traveller or a couple with little luggage. | Per seat, when you book. | Stops for other passengers and the time they add. |
| Public bus (line 10) | Board at the stop in departures (floor 1) for Maó (Mahón) bus station; no booking. | Light travellers who are not in a hurry. | One-way ticket to Maó: €2.80 (Aena). | The operator’s timetable; a change is usually needed for other towns. |
Taking a taxi from Menorca Airport
A taxi is the option for people who land without a booking. You queue at the rank, agree nothing beforehand and pay the regulated fare.
Where the rank is
Aena lists the taxi stop in the terminal, floor 0, arrivals, and says to always take a taxi from the signed taxi rank. If a driver approaches you elsewhere in the terminal, say no. The rank suits you if you have not booked and want to leave straight away.
How to check the fare
Many websites print taxi prices from Maó or Ciutadella and they do not agree with each other. The reliable source is the sheet Aena publishes on its Menorca taxi page, “Menorca Airport Taxi Fares (2025)”. It is dated 2025; if Aena lists a newer sheet, use that. Aena advises you to demand a bill in the case of any complaint, so ask for a receipt at the end of the ride and keep it.
What a taxi cannot do for you
You cannot reserve a taxi at the rank, so how long you wait depends on how many cars are in the queue when you arrive. If you need a fixed pick-up time or a vehicle agreed for your group, a private transfer will give you that.
Private transfer with a driver (what MTS offers)
With a private transfer you book first: you give the destination, date, time and number of passengers, and the confirmation says where to find your driver. Menorca Transfers Services provides this as a vehicle with a driver (VTC). It is not a taxi: there is no rank, you do not hail it and the trip is arranged before you fly.
When it fits
It fits when you land late, travel with a lot of luggage, bring a baby or small children, travel as a group, or simply want the transfer settled before you fly.
How to book
- Tell us the destination, date, flight time and number of passengers.
- We check availability for your date.
- You receive a confirmation that says where to meet the driver.

Shared shuttle: what to expect
A shared shuttle is a vehicle you share with other passengers, booked in advance and paid per seat. It makes stops for the other passengers’ destinations, so your trip can take longer than a direct one. It suits a solo traveller or a couple with little luggage who prefer not to pay for a whole vehicle. Check the pick-up point, the number of stops and what luggage is included before you book.
The public bus (line 10) as a fourth option
Aena lists line 10 as the airport bus to Maó (Mahón) bus station; for Ciutadella and other towns it points to the lines that leave that station, so allow for a connection. The bus stop is on floor 1, in the departures area, and a one-way ticket costs €2.80.
Aena does not show times on its page. It links to the line 10 timetable on the Autocares Torres website. Check the current times on the operator’s website before you plan around the bus.
Which one suits you?
The best option depends on your situation more than on any single price. The taxi wins when you have not booked, and the bus wins when you travel light and are not in a rush.
| Your situation | Best fit | Why, and what to check |
|---|---|---|
| You land late | Private transfer | The pick-up is arranged before you fly. Ask what the provider does if your flight is delayed. A taxi has no booking, so your wait depends on the queue. |
| You have four or more suitcases | Private transfer | You state the luggage when you book, so the vehicle is agreed. Whichever you choose, ask whether luggage changes the price. |
| You travel with a baby or small child | Private transfer | Tell the provider when you book that you need a child seat. With a taxi you cannot arrange it beforehand. |
| Your group is five or more | Private transfer | The group travels together and you give the number of passengers when you book. At the rank, ask the driver before you load the bags whether you all fit. |
| You travel light and are not in a hurry | Public bus or shared shuttle | The bus goes to Maó bus station and a change is usually needed for other towns. The shuttle makes stops for other passengers. |
| You have not booked and want to leave now | Taxi from the rank | It is the only door-to-door option that needs no booking. |

Frequently asked questions
Is there a taxi rank at Menorca Airport?
Yes. Aena lists a taxi stop in the terminal, floor 0, arrivals. Use that signed rank and no other pick-up point.
What is the difference between a taxi and a private transfer?
A taxi is taken at the rank with no booking and you pay the regulated fare. A private transfer is a vehicle with a driver that you book beforehand, with destination, date, time and passengers agreed. Price is set differently in each, so compare the total for your trip rather than assuming one is cheaper.
Do I need to book a transfer in advance?
For a private transfer and a shared shuttle, yes; a taxi is not booked at the rank.
Is there a direct bus from the airport to my resort?
Aena lists one airport bus, line 10, to Maó bus station. For other destinations, Aena points to the lines that leave that station; check with the operators before you travel.
Can I travel with a baby or child seat?
Tell the provider when you book, because child seats depend on the company and the vehicle. If you book with us, mention it in your request.

TL;DR
The taxi and the line 10 bus need no booking; the taxi is the only one that takes you door to door without booking. A private transfer and a shuttle are booked in advance; of the two, only the private transfer is for your group alone. Check taxi fares on Aena’s official sheet, and compare the total price in euros and the seven points above before you pay anyone.
