Transportation to Airport from Brisbane City Center

Brisbane Airport

Trains are the fastest and most frequently preferred alternative to get to the airport from the city center in Brisbane. However, if you wish to continue your journey with a more comfortable option, you may consider renting a car, take advantage of airport shuttles, or easily find a taxi in the city.

Train

The train is the fastest option in Brisbane between the airport and the city center. Moreover, the fees for trains that you can get directly from the airport are much lower than other options. You can take a train from Central Station, South Brisbane, Fortitude Valley, Roma Street, South Bank and Bowen Hills, and reach the airport connecting Brisbane to the continent and the world. The trains are quite fast but not very suitable for passengers with children and very heavy luggage. If you are travelling as a group, it's a good idea to take a look at other alternatives such as taxi, airport shuttle or car rental to get to the airport from the center of Brisbane. Keep in mind that if you prefer trains, they work between 05:04 to 22:04 on weekdays and 06:04 to 22:04 on weekends.

Taxi

In Brisbane, you can also evaluate the taxi option, which is shown as one of the fastest alternatives to get to the airport from the city center. You will see two different taxi companies in the city. The first is Yellow Cab, the second is Black & White Cabs. It is possible to make a reservation at the beginning of your journey by calling 133222 and 131924. Also remember that the taximeters in Brisbane are opening at $ 3.50.

Bus

In Brisbane, buses are one of the most preferred transportation means, especially by locals. In the city you have the chance to take buses from almost all the central points of the city, especially the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Brisbane City. If you are considering the bus option to come to the airport from where you are, you can find the nearest stop by getting more detailed information from the reception of the hotel you are staying in.

Car Rental

It is also a good idea to rent a car to explore the beautiful coastline and countless beautiful sights worth seeing in the city. You can start exploring Brisbane by renting your car easily from companies such as AVIS, Hertz or Europcar. The steering is on the right, as is the case throughout Australia. Getting used to this situation can be challenging initially for those who consider renting a car for a while.

Airport Shuttle

Airport services may be the right choice if you are looking for a comfortable option to reach the airport from the city, especially for a family or a crowded group. In the city there is a shuttle service which especially carries the passengers of large scale hotels to the airport. It is important to remember that one of the most important conditions to pay attention to using these services is to book in advance.

Before coming to the city, you can make your reservation to the hotel via internet or by phone if they offer the service, and have the shuttle waiting for you at the door at the landing time of your plane. If your hotel is not offering this service, you can search the internet and choose your transportation by taking offers from different companies.

Bicycle

For Brisbane, you can easily say a complete bike town. It is possible to see bicycle riders in almost every region in the city. Bicycles are not among the first choices to use between the city center and airport, but it is an extremely attractive alternative especially for nearby areas.

Airport Information

The airport that connects Brisbane, one of Australia's most visited cities, to the world, reflects the fun and relaxed atmosphere of the city at the same time. At the airport you can make use of the many restaurants and cafes, shop, buffets and duty free stores waiting for the passengers. There are stores like Lorna Jane and Sunglass Hut that you can shop at the airport.

Among the places where you can eat or have a drink are the world famous fast food restaurant Mc Donald's, Avitation Pier Cafe & Bar, The Market Place, Glasshouse Bar and Coretto Bar & Cafe.

Whether you are waiting for your flight at Brisbane Airport or after the journey, you can buy the city's most famous local wines, liqueurs, coffee or personal care products such as soaps and shampoos. These products are usually offered at the terminal where international flights are operated from.

You can also take advantage of the free internet connection provided at the airport if you need to use it before boarding or at the end of your journey.

Transportation to Bujumbura City Center from Airport

Melchior Ndadaye Intl. Airport

Bujumbura International Airport, located in Bujumbura, the capital of Burundi, is also the only international airport in the country. Local language and French are often spoken in the city. The number of English speakers is very low. For this reason, if you plan to stay in the city for a long time, you are recommended to learn some words in French or in local language that would help you in the daily life. After landing to Bujumbura International Airport, you can travel to the center by taking one of the taxis located just outside the terminal. Taxis are usually easily found in front of the terminal. If there are no taxis, you can ask for support from the information desk at the airport, rent a car from the terminal, or use a shuttle to get to the center.

Taxi

It is generally not difficult to find a taxi in Bujumbura International Airport. After landing to the airport, you can get out of the terminal and take one of the Bujumbura taxis waiting in front of the terminal. Traveling to the center by taxi takes only a few minutes and the amount you need to pay would be equal to around 20 American dollars in local currency. If you need to travel to farther destinations within and around the city, the fare would be more than this based on the distance. If you are going to a destination far away from the airport and want to know in advance how much you would pay, you can talk to the taxi driver and try to negotiate at a certain price.

Car Rental

There are also alternatives in and around Bujumbura International Airport for those passengers who would like to rent a car. The complicated traffic in the city is a fact that you need to consider if you opt for renting a car. Driving in the city is usually very difficult and complicated as people usually do not follow the traffic rules. However, if you still go for renting a car, you can increase your chance to find a car as soon as you land at the airport by booking online in advance. You can follow the signs showing the Bujumbura city center after exiting the airport and be in the city center just in a few minutes. The difficulty of finding a car park in the city center is also another negative side of renting a car. You need to make sure to find a safe place to park your car in the crowded and complex environment of the city.

Tuk-tuk 

Small vehicles that have space only for the driver and one or two passengers are known as tuk-tuk and are frequently used in the city. You can find a tuk-tuk near the airport and come to the city center with these means of transportation. Tuk-tuk fares may be a bit more affordable compared to the taxis, but they do not offer a wide space or baggage to carry your suitcases. Tuk-tuk stands out as an alternative which you can use especially when you need to get to a place in the city from another quickly.

Private Shuttles

Another fast and practical means of transportation to get to the center from Bujumbura international airport is the private shuttles which are usually used by foreign tourists visiting the city. While you can find offices of private shuttle companies at the airport, it is also possible to book online in advance. With the private shuttles you can reach wherever you want in the city after leaving the airport. The fares of the private shuttles that carry passengers to the center from the airport vary according to factors like the season of the journey, number of the passengers and the distance travelled.
