Ground Transportation
Taxis
Taxis are available at a designated stand outside the terminal building. The ride to the Aksu city center is about 10-12 km and typically takes 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic. Ride-hailing services like Didi Chuxing are also a common and convenient option.
Rental Cars
Major international car rental companies generally do not have counters at the airport. While local rental options may exist, self-driving in China requires a Chinese driver's license. A more practical alternative for visitors is to arrange for a private car with a driver through a local travel agency or hotel.
Public Transportation
An airport shuttle bus provides service between Aksu Airport and the city center. The bus route typically runs to and from the Civil Aviation Hotel (CAAC Hotel) in downtown Aksu. The bus schedule is coordinated with flight arrivals and departures.
