Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 23, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are readily available at a designated taxi stand outside the arrivals terminal. The journey to downtown Bole is approximately 18-20 km and takes about 20-30 minutes. Fares are typically metered, but it's advisable to confirm with the driver before starting the trip. Having your destination address written in Chinese is highly recommended.

Rental Cars

Car rental services are available, primarily from national Chinese providers who may offer airport pickup and drop-off services. It is recommended to book in advance online. Note that foreign visitors typically need a valid Chinese driver's license to rent and drive a car in China, as an International Driving Permit (IDP) is not recognized for this purpose.

Public Transportation

An airport shuttle bus service connects Bole Alashankou Airport with the city center of Bole. The bus schedule is typically aligned with flight arrival and departure times, making it a convenient and economical option. The bus stop is located outside the terminal building. This is the primary form of public transportation to and from the airport.

new info Posted by thesis on January 28, 2012

According to the published data http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alashankou_Airport from 4 October 2011 the Bole Alashankou airport ICAO code ZWBL has been assigned.

Warning! Posted by thesis on March 12, 2011

As I say above: no more than the assumption that this airport is assigned code ZWAX.
ICAO "indicators list" assign ZWAX to unknown city "A'xialashankou, China". There is Alashankou (Ala Shankou) railway station in China located at 45°21′03″N 82°25′27″E.
