Arriving late?
Not everything runs around the clock: the Navette 620 and tram 1 runs 08:30–23:30. Outside those hours, the Taxi on the meter and the Welcome Pickups transfer to Montpellier are what remain. Set the hour you leave arrivals and the board keeps only what is running.
Luggage

Going somewhere specific?
"The center" is not one place, and the answer changes
Buy from the 620 driver or in the liO app: EUR 2 to Place de l'Europe, or EUR 3 including the TaM tram after the bus, which the driver alone sells. Children under five ride the bus free; on the tram only under-threes do.
The taxi rank
The taxi rank is in front of the arrivals hall, in the line at entrance A; official taxis wait there with a roof sign and a meter and never approach you inside. All drivers take cards. Association des Taxis Aéroport: +33 4 30 96 60 60.
At night
The last 620 leaves at 23:30 and still meets tram 1 at Place de l'Europe. After it, and before the first bus at 08:30, only taxis and booked cars serve the terminal.

Worth knowing
