How to Get From Fukuoka Airport to Fukuoka Center

Finding Your Way From FUK to Downtown by Bus Bus travel between FUK airport and the center is the cheapest method, costing Y=260 one way with approximately 30 minutes required to arrive Downtown via the shuttle bus transfer service.

As there are no ATMs within the airport, it is advisable to have some cash handy prior to your trip. Bus stops can be found all across the airport and all accept IC cards. However, due to travel time it would be beneficial if some money were available as there may be additional expenses such as parking costs.

Option two is purchasing a one-journey airport subway ticket (Y=260) which covers Fukuoka Airport and Hakata stations, such as vending machines in the airport or one of the information desks located within domestic terminal buildings. This ticket may only be purchased once.

For ease of navigation of the subway system, we advise purchasing either a 1-Day or 2-Day pass. These passes provide cost savings as they allow riders to avoid purchasing tickets each time they take the train.

Fukuoka's subways are efficient and fast, providing quick transportation between the airport and hotel without worry over traffic or accessing popular attractions like Uminonakamichi Seaside Park or Momochi Seaside Park.

Prepaid cards like Suica or Pasmo allow you to board trains quickly, while providing additional discounts if you take more than one ride to cover the costs associated with your ticket.
