Split Airport ground transport

Split Airport handles roughly 3.5 million passengers a year from a single compact terminal, and its location matters more than most: it sits between Kaštela and Trogir, so the old harbour city of Trogir is a short bus hop away while Split's old town is a 25 km drive east. The workhorse public link is the official airport shuttle, run by Platanus since it took over the route from Pleso Prijevoz on 1 February 2026 — coaches leave about 30 minutes after each arriving flight, cost around €8-9, and terminate at Split's main bus station right beside the ferry port, a five-minute walk from Diocletian's Palace. Budget travellers instead cross the car park to the main road and catch Promet Split city bus 37, which shuttles between Trogir and Split past the airport for a few euros, though it stops often and drops you at Split's suburban Sukoišan terminal rather than the centre. For door-to-door travel, Uber and Bolt both operate here (~€20-35 to the old town), traditional airport taxis run ~€30-50, and pre-booked private transfers offer a fixed price. Croatia uses the euro, so there is no currency to change. Crucially, the big island destinations are not road trips: to reach Hvar Town or Bol on Brač you first get to Split's ferry port, then board a Jadrolinija or Krilo catamaran.
