At the exit of the arrivals terminal, you will find the cab rank. They take you downtown in 15 – 20 minutes, and all companies apply the fixed airport rate. On weekdays, the fixed rate is 24,98€, and on weekends, holidays, and working days (from 21:00 to 07:00 h), the fixed rate is 27,84€.
3. Uber and Cabify
The two applications are pretty simple to use and offer the convenience, through their application, of requesting a vehicle by tracking its location in real-time. This way, you can know the estimated waiting time.
This type of service is sometimes cheaper than taxis, and the Uber and Cabify apps allow you to see the estimated cost of the trip and choose from different vehicle categories.
The only drawback of these services is that meeting the driver for airport arrivals can be a hassle. Specific stops are enabled. You can find them with a VTC sign in the Airport terminal’s Parking for Authorized Vehicles Area.
4. Private shuttle service, premium service and the most comfortable way
Another option to get from Seville airport to the city centre is a private transfer service. This is the most comfortable but also the most expensive way.
