Nene Tereza Intl TIA
Tirana's main air gateway is Nene Tereza International Airport, serving flights to cities such as Krakow, Chisinau, Budapest, Warsaw, Katowice, Bucharest, Bratislava and Prague. Cheap flights from Tirana usually start with checking dated fares and the price calendar for this airport before you book. The airport is outside the city, so allow extra time for the transfer and for check-in, especially when several departures cluster in the morning or evening. Published fares can differ by airline, cabin and route, so compare what each ticket includes rather than looking only at the headline price.

Getting to the city
The cheapest way into Tirana is usually public transport from the airport, rather than a taxi or private transfer. Leave extra time in the evening and at peak hours, because road traffic can slow the journey, and if you arrive late, confirm that your chosen option is still running before you leave arrivals. Avoid unlicensed drivers outside the terminal, and if you take a taxi, agree the route or fare basis clearly before setting off.
