Dundee (DND): no bus reaches the terminal, but you can walk into town

HIAL states there are no public transport links directly to the terminal. The nearest bus is on Perth Road, twenty minutes away, and the city centre is a thirty minute waterfront walk.

  • There are no public transport links directly to the terminal building. That is HIAL's own sentence.
  • The nearest bus is on Perth Road, a 20 minute walk from the airport. Stagecoach runs it into the city centre.
  • The city centre is a five minute drive, or a 30 minute walk along the waterfront.
  • That walk is a genuine option here, unlike at most airports: it is flat, it follows the Tay, and it is half an hour.
  • Dundee Railway Station has connections to Aberdeen, Perth, Edinburgh and Glasgow, and is in the city centre at the end of that walk.
  • There is a taxi rank outside the terminal, but the airport recommends pre-booking, especially for evening flights.
  • Named operators include Tele Taxis (01382 825825) and Dundee City Taxis (01382 204060).
  • Bicycle and e-bike hire is available in the city, which HIAL links to.
  • The address is Riverside Drive, Dundee, DD2 1UH.
  • The airport sits on the Tay waterfront, which is why the walk works and the bus does not.

No bus to the door

  • HIAL says it plainly: there are no public transport links directly to the terminal building.
  • Stagecoach runs a bus into the city centre from Perth Road, which is a 20 minute walk from the airport.
  • So the bus is a 20 minute walk plus a ride. For most arrivals that is not the answer.

The walk, which is

  • The city centre is a 30 minute walk along the waterfront.
  • This is one of the few airports where walking in is genuinely sensible. The airport is on Riverside Drive, on the Tay, and the route is flat and direct.
  • By car it is five minutes.

Onward

  • Dundee Railway Station is in the city centre, with connections to Aberdeen, Perth, Edinburgh and Glasgow.
  • Bicycle and e-bike hire is available in the city.

Taxi

  • There is a rank outside the terminal, but the airport recommends pre-booking all taxis, especially for evening flights.
  • Tele Taxis: 01382 825825. Dundee City Taxis: 01382 204060.
