Taxis

Pre-paid taxi services are available from a counter inside the arrivals hall, offering fixed, government-approved fares to various city destinations. App-based ride-hailing services like Uber and Ola also operate from the airport, with designated pickup points outside the terminal. The journey to the city center typically takes 20-30 minutes.

Rental Cars

Several local and national car rental agencies offer services at the airport. Both self-drive and chauffeur-driven options are available, though chauffeur services are more common for tourists. It is recommended to book in advance online or through your hotel for a wider selection and better rates. Some providers may have counters in the arrivals area.

Public Transportation

A free shuttle bus service, operated by the SGPC (Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee), runs frequently between the airport and the Golden Temple, which is a highly convenient and popular option for pilgrims and tourists. Additionally, local public buses connect the airport to the city's main bus stand. These are the most economical options but may be less frequent, especially late at night.

Best airport ever.... Posted by on February 28, 2016

Love to use this airport .and will tell others to use this wonderful airport. Always using this airport when this airport got international status and never got any kind of problem.

worst airport ever Posted by on February 9, 2016

International airport? Shame on you!
No watch on any wall, not one display announcing departures or arrivals. The security workers had the worst mood. Terrible.
We went to different places in India and nowhere found toilets this bad. Unbelievable.
I will never use this airport again and will tell others about this.
I don't understand how it is even possible to work such an airport.

Contant Begging Posted by on January 12, 2016

I have a bad experience, requesting a wheel chair for my mother, no problem there. Whilst chair is being pushed, the person pushing the chair is constantly asking for money. What ever one gives is not enough. I ended up giving 600 Rupees, and that was still not enough.

Indian airports authorities need to look into this. India is the only place in the world where one gets constantly annoyed.

Comment Posted by on January 6, 2016

I used this airport about 9 years and back then I was subject to the usual Indian tradition of being asked for money...so I see nothing has changed - what a shame! I am hoping to use this in the near future, I really do hope I am not disappointed this time.
I think the one person above that did have something good to say must be either related to someone who works there or has been bribed (another well known Indian tradition)

All they want is money. not willing to talk to you or help in any way. worst customer service. when you ask they for a written document they are not willing to give it to you. hate that airport and its workers. shit airport in a wonderfully developing country.
