Taxis

Taxis are available to meet arriving flights. The main operator is Rishiri Hire. Due to the limited number of taxis on the small island, it is highly recommended to book in advance, especially for sightseeing tours or if you require immediate transport upon arrival.

Rental Cars

Several car rental companies have service counters or representatives at the airport, including major brands like Nippon Rent-A-Car and Times Car Rental, as well as local providers. Renting a car is a popular way to explore the island. Pre-booking is essential, particularly during the peak summer season, to ensure availability.

Public Transportation

The Soya Bus company operates a circular bus route around the island that includes a stop at Rishiri Airport. The bus schedule is timed to coincide with flight arrivals and departures, providing a convenient connection to the island's main towns and ferry ports, such as Oshidomari and Kutsugata.
