Located around 25 kilometers from Abha, the capital of Saudi Arabia's Asir Province, Abha Airport offers convenient transportation options, including taxis, rental cars, and hotel shuttles. Here's what you need to know:
TaxiTaxis are readily available outside the terminal, particularly during flight times, and provide a comfortable way to reach the city center. To avoid confusion, it’s helpful to have your destination written down to show the driver. While most taxis accept payment in Saudi Riyals, some drivers may also accept US Dollars. Confirm the fare before starting your journey to ensure a smooth experience. Also, car-hailing services like Uber and Careem are available for alternative to taxis.
For travelers seeking independence, car rental services are available at the airport terminal. To secure your preferred vehicle, it’s advisable to book in advance and pick it up upon arrival. Using a navigation app or device can help you easily find your way to the city center or nearby attractions. Keep in mind that some car rental companies may require an international driver’s permit.
Hotel ShuttlesHotel shuttles are an affordable and hassle-free option for transferring to your accommodation. These services are particularly useful if you’re traveling with heavy luggage. Contact your hotel beforehand to confirm if shuttle services are available, inquire about any associated fees, and make a reservation if necessary.
The city center is only a few kilometers away from Bogorodskoye Airport and reachable in a short amount of time through some different transport options. The quickest method is to take one of the taxis waiting at the terminal exit. If you prefer to use public transport you use a ‘marşrutka’, a type of minibus. This inexpensive journey should take you to the city center in 10-15 minutes, however since the vehicles are quite small it’s not advisable to use them if you are a large group or have a lot of luggage. There’s no rental car agency in the airport so renting a car isn’t an option to reach the city center, but you can rent one from the car rental agencies in the city once you get there.
