- Fair taxi price (official, daytime): €10 - €15. Use the official taxi rank at the terminal and confirm the meter or a fixed fare before leaving. Refuse rides offered by drivers who approach you inside the arrival hall.
- Best alternative: Official airport city bus lines running into the centre; buy a ticket at the stand or via the official transit app before boarding. (€1.50)
- Validate your ticket in the onboard validator as soon as you board, and keep it for the journey. Inspectors check tickets on board, so an unvalidated or missing ticket is treated as fare evasion. Fine without a valid ticket: €20.
- Rounding up the bill or leaving 5 to 10 percent is customary for good service in restaurants. Round up in taxis; nothing is expected on top.
- Some seaside restaurants add a cover or service charge that may not be shown clearly. Ask to see the full menu with prices before ordering and check the bill for automatic extras.
- Choose to be charged in euros and decline dynamic currency conversion at the terminal. Prefer ATMs attached to banks and avoid independent high-fee machines. Withdraw cash in euros and pay small amounts in cash.
