Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 21, 2025
Taxis

Official airport-authorized taxis with a cedar tree logo are available 24/7 at the arrivals level exit. These operate on regulated, fixed prices. Ride-sharing services like Uber and Careem are also widely used and can be booked via their mobile apps. It is advisable to confirm the fare before beginning your journey.

Rental Cars

Several major international and local car rental companies, including Avis, Budget, Sixt, and Hertz, have service desks located in the arrivals hall. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially during peak travel seasons. An International Driving Permit (IDP) is often required along with your valid driver's license and a credit card.

Public Transportation

Public transportation options from the airport are limited and can be challenging for visitors. While some public buses (LCC) and private minibuses may pass near the airport road, they lack fixed schedules and clear route information, making them difficult to use for tourists. There is no direct train or metro service. Some hotels may offer private shuttle services for their guests.
