Try the Atlanda Express in Stockholm, Sweden. It’s about €30 for a twenty minute train ride. Although there are local commuter trains running, which takes about 45 mins, you’ll still have to pay an €11 airport charge. This charge is then passed on to the operator of the Arlanda Express. Yes. The express is getting paid when you use local transit.

Worth pointing out that the Stockholm transfer can be completed even cheaper if you take the bus to Märsta and change there for the commuter train to Stockholm Central. This can be done using a regular Stockholm day ticket or a 39kr single ticket, however this takes an hour.
@ralphzechendorf16442 ай бұрын
Wow, for that price they could at least offer integrated 1 hour fare on the whole network, and 100% low-floor trams. (and longer vehicles might not hurt)

I have the feeling Germany is the only country where you don‘t get surcharge for taking public transportation to and from the airport.

Two cars are clearly not enough capacity. As to cost, a Heathrow Express single ticket from Heathrow to Paddington will cost £25.00 for a 20 minute ride, although you can halve that by travelling on an Elizabeth Line train. It takes 12 minutes longer but a single costs just £12.30. It would be interesting to look at passenger numbers for each over the past year.

I've lived in Lyon for over 20 years so used to take the Satobus. The Rhônexpress is really expensive but, as a single traveller, it is convenient. It has to be said, if you're travelling in a group, it makes more sense to just get a taxi direct from the airport to your final destination. If you don't mind using a bus, TCL is really a viable alternative.

Another excellent video my friend! Agreed, a tad on the expensive side but not quite as much as the €90 one-way taxi ride on the same route (mobility issues) that we paid in September! Hope that you enjoyed your pike surprise or intestine themed sausage from your bouchon. Or was it a cheeky meal deal from a Monop'? Take care 👍

For comparison, a 20 minutes tram ride within Lyon is €2.15.

Not that bad. Those are the price for an unsubsidised service, But vehicles are too small and too crowded, the signage to get the station is amateurish.

Good video. Something similar happened in Edinburgh a few years ago, there used to be normal fare slow local buses serving the airport, now every bus including the slow local ones (rebranded Skylink) now carries a premium fare to the airport (£5.50 sgl for the last two stops, compared to £2 outside airport area).

This is like an even more extreme version of the 'Airport Zone' nonsense on Edinburgh trams. A standard single across the entire tram network other than the Airport station? (Including ingliston park & ride, which is within sight of the airport) £2.00 A single including that one extra stop? In the 'Airport Zone'? £7.50 A typical return? £3.80 Airport zone included? £9.50

What about the outrageously overpriced Luton DART that runs between 'London' Luton Airport and the Airport Parkway railway station. Distance 1.3 miles (2.1 km). Journey time less than 4 mins. Fare: £4.90 (= €5.80)

In Bologna you can take bus 81 or 91 from the central station, get off at a neighbourhood called Birra, then walk 5 minutes to the terminal for 1.50€. There's usually a bus every 15 minutes.

In Paris to Orly you pay €11.30, yes but for a SIX minute ride in a mini RER, OrlyVal. Add up the regular RER, so you get up to about 14.5€! At almost €2 per minute it makes Lyons 0,50 per minute laughable! In Italy I had many airport trains with prizes around €15 euro, it's quite common there. (Since a few months, there is also a metro 14 in Paris but you pay €10.30 extra on top of your regular ticket, just as a bonus) .

Bro try the Bologna Airport Marconi Express, its a fucking ripoff €12.80, and it is a monorail, the ride is crazy bouncy and uncomfortable, you would need to throw up. And a few years ago it was €6. Nobody takes it, how can you justify €1+ / min. Seriously a joke, everyone must boycott. The bus is much cheaper
