César Manrique-Lanzarote Airport, also known as Lanzarote Airport and Arrecife Airport, is the airport serving the island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands.
The local bus (line 22) stops right outside the Arrivals Hall, and the journey to Arrecife takes around 15 minutes. It runs from 6:55 am to 10:40 pm Monday to Friday, every 25 minutes.
Taxis and car rental companies, like Avis and Europcar, are represented at the airport. It is strongly suggested to avoid taxis from points other than the official taxi rank.
At the moment, there aren’t Uber or any rideshare services available at Lanzarote Airport.

Taxi
You'll find an abundance of taxis in the major tourist resorts, but keep in mind that public transport is efficient and often considerably more affordable. Renting a car is also a viable option for exploring the island.
It's highly recommended to use only official taxis, which are easily recognisable by their white and red colours. Taxi ranks are typically situated near the city's central station, ensuring you always have access to a ride.
Bear in mind that each part of the island has its own dedicated taxi company.
