Ground Transportation

Taxis

Taxis are readily available at a designated taxi stand outside the arrivals hall. The journey to downtown Korla is approximately 15-20 kilometers and takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic. Fares are metered and typically cost around 30-50 CNY. It is recommended to use official, marked taxis.

Rental Cars

Car rental services are available, primarily from major Chinese companies like China Auto Rental (Shenzhou) and eHi Car Services. While they may not have a physical counter inside the terminal, they offer airport pickup and drop-off services if booked in advance. Note that foreign visitors need a valid Chinese driver's license to rent a car; an International Driving Permit (IDP) alone is not sufficient.

Public Transportation

There are two main public transit options. An Airport Shuttle Bus (机场大巴) connects the airport to key locations in the city center, with a schedule often coordinated with flight arrivals and departures. This is a convenient and affordable option. Additionally, a local public bus, Route No. 28 (28路公交车), serves the airport, offering the most economical way to travel to the city, though it may take longer and have more stops.
