Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 23, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are the most common form of transport from the airport. For security reasons, it is strongly recommended to pre-arrange a taxi through your hotel or a trusted local contact. Taxis are readily available outside the terminal, but fares are not metered and must be negotiated before starting your journey. Payment is usually in cash (USD or Somali Shillings).

Rental Cars

Major international self-drive car rental companies do not operate at the airport. The standard option is to hire a car with a driver. This service must be arranged in advance, typically through your hotel, a local tour company, or a private security firm. Options can range from standard sedans to armored 4x4 vehicles depending on security needs.

Public Transportation

There are no formal public bus or train services directly connecting to Aden Adde International Airport. While local minibuses (caasi) and auto-rickshaws (bajajs) are common in Mogadishu, they are not a recommended or practical transportation option for international visitors arriving at the airport due to security and logistical challenges.

re: Reopened in 2006 Posted by david on March 23, 2009

... however, most scheduled airline traffic has moved to K50 Airport, further from the city, for safety.

Reopened in 2006 Posted by david on April 22, 2008

Mogadishu's airport has been closed periodically because of fighting around the city. It last reopened in August 2006, and is still operational.
