Split is a major summer destination and some flights land late. Here is what the official sources say about arriving outside normal hours.
The airport at night
The airport website lists 06:00-22:00 working hours for its restaurants and bars and for its exchange office, so do not count on food or currency exchange for a late arrival. ATMs are on the ground floor of the main terminal building.
Bus line 37 at night
Promet Split's timetable for line 37 (valid from 8 September 2025) shows departures from Split until 00:15 and from Trogir until 23:45. Promet does not publish the airport stop times on the page, so for a late flight check the timetable or Promet's interactive map for the airport stop. If your flight is delayed past the last bus, you will need a taxi or transfer.
Taxis at night
The airport website says taxis wait near the main terminal building during airport operating hours. It does not publish fares or night surcharges, so confirm the fare with the driver before getting in.
The case for pre-booking
A pre-booked transfer fixes the pickup in advance for late-night arrivals. If flight tracking is included in your booking, the driver follows your actual arrival time; confirm this and the meeting point when you book.
Arriving in Split late
Vehicle access in the Old Town (Diocletian's Palace area) is limited, so your driver will drop you at the nearest accessible point to your accommodation. Ask your host in advance about the best access point and how to get in for a late arrival. Trogir's old town has similar access limits.
Practical tips for late arrivals
Save your accommodation address and host's phone number offline before landing. If you have an early start the next day, such as a morning ferry to Hvar, check the Jadrolinija timetable for your date and consider where you sleep relative to the port.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the bus run from Split Airport late at night?

Are taxis available at Split Airport after midnight?

What if my flight is delayed?
With a pre-booked transfer, give the provider your flight number; whether the driver follows delays depends on the booking. If you planned to use the bus, check whether the last line 37 departure has passed.
