Taxis

Taxis are readily available at a stand located directly outside the arrivals area of the terminal. Service is generally timed to meet scheduled flight arrivals. It is a convenient option for traveling to nearby towns like Madalena or São Roque do Pico.

Rental Cars

Several car rental companies operate at Pico Airport, with service desks located inside the arrivals hall. Options typically include Ilha Verde, Autatlantis, and Sixt. Renting a car is highly recommended for exploring the island. Pre-booking, especially during the high season, is strongly advised to ensure availability.

Public Transportation

There are no direct public bus routes or dedicated shuttle services that stop at the Pico Airport terminal. The island's public bus network (operated by Cristiano Limitada) connects the main towns, but it is not a convenient option for airport transfers. Visitors should plan to use a taxi or a rental car.
