Jerez Airport (XRY) in 2026-2027: getting to Jerez, Cádiz, El Puerto and the Costa de la Luz by train, bus, taxi or car

Updated: 10 November 2026

Jerez Airport (XRY) is the air gateway to the province of Cádiz and has its own train stop. This guide brings together what we could check on 10 November 2026 on the airport's Aena pages, Renfe and the Cádiz Bay Transport Consortium (Consorcio de Transportes Bahía de Cádiz); press reports are flagged as such. We found no official ticket prices and no direct bus from the airport to Chiclana, Conil, Vejer or Tarifa: anything we could not confirm is marked. We always give the year of each fact.

By train: C-1 commuter line and regional trains

According to the airport's Aena page (checked November 2026) and Renfe (September 2026):

Cercanías C-1 Cádiz-Aeropuerto de Jerez: runs every day of the year. Approximate times from the airport stop: Jerez de la Frontera 9 min, El Puerto de Santa María 19 min, Puerto Real 30 min, San Fernando 38 min and Cádiz 57 min (Aena).
Watch the frequency: under Renfe's timetable in force since 21 September 2026, on weekdays only 3 trains per direction link the Aeropuerto de Jerez directly with Cádiz (against 21 per direction between Jerez and Cádiz). Check the Renfe Cercanías Cádiz timetable before you fly.
Seville-Cádiz regional train (Media Distancia): eight daily stops at the airport; Jerez 8 min, El Puerto 17 min, Cádiz 47 min and Seville 1 h 11 min (Aena, 2026).
Fares: the Cercanías network has five zones and the airport is in zone 5; the price depends on the zones travelled. 2026 amounts: not confirmed. Discounts listed by Aena: children under 6 free without a seat (up to 2 per adult), Tarjeta Dorada 40%, large families 20% or 50%, groups of 10 or more 30% (single) or 40% (return).

By Consorcio bus

Aena lists three Consorcio de Transportes Bahía de Cádiz lines stopping at the airport (checked November 2026):

M-050 Cádiz-Jerez de la Frontera: direct, every day. In the timetable published by the Consorcio (valid "from 20/06/2024") it leaves the airport for Cádiz at 16:15 Monday to Friday and at 15:15 on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
M-052 Cádiz-Campus Puerto Real-El Puerto de Santa María-Jerez: departures from the airport only, Monday to Friday. Timetable: not confirmed.
M-053 Cádiz-Jerez (via Jerez Hospital): Cádiz-to-airport direction only, Monday to Friday; the 2024 timetable shows a single departure from Cádiz at 8:00.
There are very few departures a day and we do not know whether the 2024 timetables still apply in 2026-2027: check the Consorcio website (siu.cmtbc.es) or app. Fares depend on the zones crossed; amounts not confirmed.

To Chiclana, Conil, Vejer and Tarifa

What we know and what we do not:

Aena lists no direct bus from the airport to Chiclana, Conil, Vejer or Tarifa (November 2026).
By public transport you usually go first to Jerez or Cádiz (by train or bus) and change there to another Consorcio line. Routes, timetables and journey times for those connections: not confirmed; check with the Consorcio before travelling.
For these destinations many travellers choose a hire car, a taxi or a transfer offered by their accommodation. Road distances and times: not confirmed in official sources.

Taxi and car hire

According to Aena (November 2026):

Taxi: the rank is at the airport itself. Trips to central Jerez use the urban tariff and Aena says there is an official fixed price, whose amount is not given in the page text (not confirmed). Cádiz and the rest of the coast use the interurban tariff; amounts not confirmed. The meter must be started at the beginning of the trip, and Aena recommends asking for a receipt.
Jerez has 178 taxi licences and plans to call 15 new ones under its 2026-2031 plan (Viva Jerez, press, 24-06-2026).
Car hire: Sixt, Enterprise, Europcar, Avis, Hertz, Thrifty and Goldcar-InterRent have desks on level 0 of the terminal. Opening hours: not confirmed; check with the company.

Flights and destinations

Aena warns that it may change.

Full winter 2026-27 schedule and summer 2027 routes: not confirmed. Check with the airline.

Alternatives: Seville, Gibraltar and Málaga

For some Costa de la Luz destinations:

Seville: the Seville-Cádiz train stops at Jerez airport and in Jerez, so the two airports can be combined; connections from Seville airport itself: not confirmed in this guide.
Gibraltar and Málaga: some travellers use them to reach Tarifa or the Costa de la Luz. We have not checked distances, times or connections: not confirmed.

If you run a property on the Costa de la Luz

What travellers typically ask AI assistants:

Whether there is a train or bus from Jerez airport to your town and where to change.
How much a taxi from the airport costs and whether you offer a transfer.
Whether to hire a car and whether you have parking.
Keeping this clear and up to date on your website and listings (and checking train and bus timetables every season) avoids wrong answers.
