Cork Airport transfers

Cork Airport is about 7 km south of Cork city, on the N27. It handled about 3.46 million passengers in 2025. There is no rail link, but buses, taxis and car hire desks are right by arrivals. Popular onward trips include the city, Kinsale and Kerry.

Cork Airport buses to the city and Kinsale

The taxi rank is outside the arrivals entrance, and fares follow the NTA maximum. Kinsale is about 20 km, or 20–25 minutes, and a taxi costs about €42–50. One Cork chauffeur firm lists airport transfers from about €110 in a Mercedes E-Class and about €170 in a V-Class, with Sprinter minibuses for larger groups.
