The private taxi from Podgorica city to Tirana Airport (Rinas International Airport — TIA) covers approximately 220 km and takes around 2 hours and 30 minutes under normal conditions — one of the most in-demand cross-border routes operated by TTM, serving both Montenegrin residents and international visitors who find it more practical or more economical to fly out of Tirana rather than Podgorica. The Tirana Airport (TIA) — officially named Nënë Tereza International Airport after Mother Teresa, who was born in Skopje of Albanian origin — is Albania's only international airport and handles a wide range of European destinations, including many low-cost carrier routes that are not available from Podgorica. For guests whose onward flight is from Tirana, TTM provides the door-to-terminal connection from any address in Podgorica at a fixed price.
From Podgorica the route follows the main highway south to the Bozaj border crossing into Albania — approximately 30 km from the city centre, around 25–30 minutes. After crossing, the road continues south through Shkodër and along the Albanian highway through Lezhë and Vorë before joining the Durrës–Tirana motorway and reaching the airport at Rinas, approximately 17 km northwest of Tirana city centre. The airport is directly on this route and requires no diversion through the city. TTM monitors the current traffic conditions and border wait times at Bozaj and departs from Podgorica at the appropriate time to ensure a comfortable arrival before your flight. We recommend departing at least 3 hours before your flight to account for border processing time.
The price is fixed from the moment of booking: 120€ per vehicle regardless of traffic or border duration — you pay exactly what was agreed. Standard luggage is included. Cash payment on arrival at the airport. For guests requiring a return transfer from Tirana Airport to Podgorica, TTM covers this route at the same price in the opposite direction — contact us via WhatsApp for the return journey booking.
Nënë Tereza International Airport (IATA: TIA) at Rinas, 17 km northwest of Tirana city centre, is Albania's only international airport. It handles airlines including Wizz Air, Ryanair, Air Albania, Austrian, Lufthansa, British Airways, easyJet and others — providing European connections that are not available from Podgorica Airport (TGD). TTM drops passengers directly at the departures terminal.
The journey takes approximately 2h30 under normal conditions. However, the Bozaj border crossing can have variable wait times — typically 10–30 minutes, but potentially longer during peak summer weekends. TTM recommends a 3-hour departure margin from Podgorica to arrive at the airport with comfortable check-in time. We monitor border conditions and advise on departure time when you book.
The Bozaj / Sukobin crossing is the main Montenegro–Albania border point on the highway route — approximately 30 km south of Podgorica, processing both Montenegrin and EU/Schengen passports. TTM drivers are experienced with the crossing procedures and know the best lanes and timing. Border document requirements: valid EU passport, or Montenegrin, Serbian, or Albanian ID card. Non-EU visitors require a valid passport.
Tirana Airport offers a significantly wider range of European destinations than Podgorica, including many low-cost carrier routes on Wizz Air and Ryanair that have no equivalent from TGD. For guests whose final destination is not served from Podgorica, or whose fare from Tirana is substantially lower, the 120€ transfer to TIA often represents a saving rather than an additional cost.
Podgorica → Bozaj border (~30 km) → Shkodër → Lezhë → Vorë → Rinas / TIA. The route is entirely on highway and main roads — no mountain sections, no unpaved road. Standard driving conditions apply year-round. Night transfers available at the same fixed price.
TTM also covers the return transfer from Tirana Airport to Podgorica at the same fixed price. For guests arriving in Tirana and continuing to Montenegro, the driver can meet you at the arrivals hall with a name sign and transfer you directly to your Podgorica address. Contact us via WhatsApp with your TIA arrival flight number to book the return journey.
