  • Fifteen days of validity on the return covers almost any holiday, so buy it on arrival unless you are leaving by ferry or hire car.

The route

  • From the airport: Ploce gate at the Old Town, then Gruz bus station.
  • To the airport: from Gruz, calling at Grawe station and the Cable car stop before the airport.
  • Gruz is the main bus station and the ferry port; Ploce is the eastern gate of the walled city.
  • From Ploce it is 25 minutes to the airport, from Gruz about 35.

Why it is timed this way

  • Departures are linked to flights, not to a clock. The bus waits in the parking area before the plane lands and leaves about half an hour after arrival.
  • That means a delayed flight still has a bus, which a fixed timetable service would not guarantee.
