Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 21, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are available from a rank located directly outside the terminal building. They typically meet all scheduled flights. The journey to Stornoway town centre is very short, taking approximately 5-10 minutes. Pre-booking with a local taxi firm is recommended, especially during peak travel times or for late arrivals.

Rental Cars

Car rental desks for companies like Car Hire Hebrides and Mackinnon Self Drive are located within the terminal building. Renting a car is a popular option for exploring the islands of Lewis and Harris. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle well in advance, as availability can be very limited, particularly during the summer months.

Public Transportation

A local bus service connects the airport to the Stornoway Bus Station in the town centre. The bus stop is situated just outside the terminal entrance. Timetables are generally aligned with flight arrivals and departures, but services may be less frequent on weekends and evenings. It is advisable to check the current schedule on the Comhairle nan Eilean Siar (local council) website before travelling.
