The route of the bus line 443 from the airport takes 30 minutes and costs 1.50 €. From there you can come to Pontevedra by bus or train. The train and bus tickets can be bought at the station.

Santiago Airport (Lavacolla)

The airport is located in the outskirts of Santiago, so you will have to take the airport shuttle in order to arrive in the city (it takes about 20-30 min depending on traffic). The single ticket costs 3 euros. If you decide to stop at the bus station, the company Monbus covers the route Santiago-Pontevedra every day quite often. However, if you prefer to come by train, get off at the train station stop and buy your ticket there.
