Airport taxis operate on a fixed-price coupon system. You can purchase a coupon at the official counter inside the arrivals hall. The journey to Tawau town center is approximately 30-40 minutes and costs around RM 45. Ride-hailing services like Grab are also a popular and often slightly cheaper alternative, available for booking via a mobile app.
Several car rental agencies, including both local and international brands, have counters located within the arrivals hall. Options typically include Hertz, Avis, and local providers. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially during peak travel seasons, to secure availability and better rates.
There is no direct public bus service from the Tawau Airport terminal building to the town center or other destinations like Semporna. The primary modes of transport are taxis, ride-hailing services, or pre-arranged private/shared shuttle vans. Shuttles are a common choice for travelers heading to Semporna and can often be booked through hotels or dive operators.
