Taxi Malaga
Málaga Airport’s taxi services are operated by a fleet of approximately 1,600 officially licensed vehicles, all regulated by the local transportation authority. A dedicated portion of these taxis are exclusively assigned to serve passengers at the airport taxi rank.
Unlike private transfer services, standard Málaga Airport taxis calculate fares using a metered system. The final price depends on multiple factors including:
- Distance traveled to your destination
- Time of day (day/night rates)
- Public holiday surcharges
- Number of luggage pieces
- Current traffic conditions
Recent Changes to Málaga Taxi Fare Structure
To account for increasing operational costs, Málaga’s taxi associations implemented a fare adjustment. After negotiations with local authorities, the final increase was set at 5.95%, effective from June 2020.
Updated Daytime Rates (6:00-22:00)
- Minimum fare: Increased from €3.85 to €4.08
- Initial charge: Raised from €1.57 to €1.66
Updated Nighttime/Special Day Rates
