Prepaid taxi services are the most reliable option, available at a dedicated counter inside the arrival hall. The journey to Silchar city centre, approximately 25-30 km away, takes about 45-60 minutes. App-based ride-hailing services like Ola and Uber may also be available, but their presence can be less consistent than prepaid taxis.
Car rentals are available, typically offered by local travel agencies and tour operators rather than major international brands. It is most common to rent a car with a driver. For a smoother experience, it is highly recommended to pre-book a vehicle online or by phone before your arrival.
For a more economical option, the Assam State Transport Corporation (ASTC) provides bus services connecting the airport to the main city. Additionally, shared taxis and auto-rickshaws are available outside the airport terminal, offering a budget-friendly way to travel to various parts of Silchar.
