Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 20, 2025
Taxis

The airport uses a prepaid coupon system for official airport taxis. Purchase a coupon at the counter in the Arrivals Hall for a fixed fare to your destination. Alternatively, ride-hailing services like Grab are a popular option and can be booked via a mobile app for pickup at a designated point.

Rental Cars

Several international and local car rental companies, including Hertz, Avis, and Kasina, have counters located in the Arrivals Hall. It is advisable to book your vehicle in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons, to ensure availability and secure better rates.

Public Transportation

Rapid Penang provides public bus services from the airport. The bus stop is located on the ground level outside the arrivals area. Key routes include Bus 401E (an express service to the KOMTAR terminal in George Town) and Bus 102 (which travels to tourist areas like Batu Ferringhi). This is the most budget-friendly option.
