Lecar A1 coach to Saint-CharlesorCorsica Linea ferry to Bastia, by Lecar A1 and metro M2?

A1 · Transdev for La Métropole Mobilité (Métropole Aix-Marseille-Provence)Lecar A1 coach to Saint-Charles

From

The airport bus station (gare routière) between Terminals 1 and 2, with a ticket machine open 24 hours and the Métropole Mobilité Boutique open 06:00 to 22:15

To

The Pôle d'Échanges Saint-Charles bus station, beside the railway station, above metro lines M1 and M2; timetabled 22 minutes off-peak and 30 at the morning and afternoon peaks, printed as 30 to 50

Luggage

A coach with a hold: the airport says every bus to and from it "sont équipés de soutes" and asks you to label your bags.

Runs

04:05–01:50

Journey

22–50 min

EUR 15 is the Métropole's own live figure and the airport shop's; the EUR 10 on the Métropole's 2025 sheet and in its 2025 tariff guide, still the documents a search turns up, is the price before 1 July 2026.

Tapping a bank card on board buys only the full-fare single. The EUR 7 youth fare, EUR 5 child fare and EUR 25 return are sold at the machines and Boutique in the bus station; cash on board is accepted only when the Boutique is shut. A 2026 price for the old ten-trip (EUR 65) and combined A1-plus-RTM (EUR 10.90) tickets isn't published.

The sheet says 30 to 50 minutes and the timetable 22 to 30; the airport's shop says 25. Between 07:30 and 08:50 and 16:00 and 17:50 the timetable itself allows 30, and the sheet's upper figure is for a motorway that is often full.

Last departure 01:50 (01:40 from November to April), first 04:05, every day. The bus-and-TER chain stops at 21:02–21:24; after that, only a taxi reaches Marseille, at the meter's night tariff.

A metro ticket is not included: a EUR 1.70 RTM single, or a bank card tapped at the gate, takes you on from Saint-Charles.

EUR 6.30 a head dearer than the chain at every size — EUR 120 against EUR 69.60 for eight — for a single vehicle, a hold for the bags, and the 19 hours a day the chain does not run.

From

The airport bus station (gare routière) between Terminals 1 and 2

To

Bastia port, in the town centre

Luggage

A coach with a hold, then a metro without racks and a walk of about 300 metres to the Gare Maritime de la Joliette.

Journey

13 h 33 min to 14 h 33 min

Three tickets and a booking fee: the A1 at EUR 15, the metro at EUR 1.70 and the ferry from EUR 43.37, with EUR 9.00 added on the booking page. The ferry fare was the same on every date from 12 October 2026 to February 2027.

The boat leaves at 18:00 every day and lands the next morning, at 07:00 or 08:00. Corsica Linea prints your presentation time on the ticket and sends it by SMS that morning.

Corsica Linea cancelled its Marseille sailings of 5 October 2026 and moved passengers to a 10:00 day boat on 6 October; check its line-status page before you travel.

Foot passengers report to the Gare Maritime de la Joliette, on Place de la Joliette, not to the cruise terminal in the northern port that the other Marseille port page covers.
