Bus line 9373 is the main AHO–Alghero city link
Line 9373 is the ARST bus that runs between Alghero-Fertilia Airport (AHO) T1 and Alghero city, and regulars talk about it by number, not by destination name. On ARST timetables and some stop boards, you’ll see “9373 Alghero–Aeroporto” rather than a big “Alghero City Centre” sign, which trips up first-timers who only scan for place names. If you plan connections by line ID, this is the code you want to write down.
The stop sits just outside the T1 arrivals hall at Alghero-Fertilia Airport, a short walk of roughly 100–150 meters from baggage claim doors. The bus is part of the standard regional network, so you’re sharing with locals heading into Alghero and onwards, not a premium shuttle. Expect a straightforward ride into town; journey times typically sit around 20–30 minutes depending on traffic on the SP44 and SP42 roads into the city.
Line 9373 is an ARST scheduled service that also links to some regional towns beyond Alghero, and the official material lists it by number on printed and PDF timetables. That means you might see multiple entries like “9373 Aeroporto–Alghero” scattered across a daily schedule, each tied to a specific clock time such as 09:00, 11:00 or 15:30. If you’re tight on a train or ferry connection later in the day, match those exact departure times instead of just heading outside and hoping one appears.
Tickets on ARST buses like 9373 usually price close to local urban fares, often a few euros per person rather than double-digit airport rates. You can normally buy from the driver on board, though some travelers prefer picking up a ticket in town at a bar-tabacchi or ARST point before returning to the airport. Keep coins or small notes ready, as drivers on regional lines are not thrilled about breaking large bills for single €2–€5 rides.
The key trap with Line 9373 is signage: airport posters might highlight “bus to Alghero” while the vehicle front display only shows the number 9373 with a smaller destination tag. If you land in T1 and see several buses lined up, check the number first, then the word “Alghero” second. One practical tip: screen‑grab the latest ARST timetable for line 9373 before you fly, then match number, time, and direction on your phone while you walk out of arrivals.
