Bastia (BIA): the shuttle to the station, and a summer coach south
The airport shuttle runs to Bastia railway station in about 25 minutes for a guide price of ten euro. From June to October a coach to Porto-Vecchio also calls at the airport.
- The airport shuttle runs between the terminal and Bastia town centre, terminating at Bastia station.
- It runs in both directions, from the terminal into town and from the station back out.
- The journey takes about 25 minutes.
- The guide price is 10 euro.
- It is operated by STIB Bastia, on +33 4 95 31 06 65, stib-bastia.com.
- A second option runs in season. Les Rapides Bleus operate between Bastia and Porto-Vecchio and stop at Bastia Poretta airport in both directions.
- That service runs from 1 June to 31 October.
- Tickets for it can be bought online, at a ticket office or directly from the driver.
- Les Rapides Bleus: +33 4 95 31 03 79, contact@rapides-bleus.com.
- That coach is the useful one if you are heading down the east coast rather than into Bastia, since it saves a change in town.
- Bastia station is the northern terminus of the Corsican railway, with trains to Corte, Ajaccio and Calvi.
The town shuttle
- The airport to Bastia station shuttle runs in both directions: from the terminal to the town centre terminus at Bastia gare, and back.
- Journey time is about 25 minutes.
- The guide price is 10 euro.
- Operated by STIB Bastia, +33 4 95 31 06 65, stib-bastia.com.
The summer coach south
- Les Rapides Bleus run between Bastia and Porto-Vecchio and call at Bastia Poretta airport on both the outward and return journeys.
- The service runs from 1 June to 31 October.
- Tickets can be bought online, at a ticket office, or directly from the driver - which is worth noting, since Ajaccio's shuttle no longer sells on board.
- Contact: +33 4 95 31 03 79 or contact@rapides-bleus.com.
- If you are going down the east coast to Aleria, Solenzara, Porto-Vecchio or on to Bonifacio, this saves you a change in Bastia.
Onward by rail
- Bastia station is the northern terminus of the Chemins de fer de la Corse, with trains inland to Corte and on to Ajaccio, and the branch to Calvi via Ponte Leccia.
- The airport shuttle terminates there, which makes the connection straightforward.
