Located about 15–20 km southeast of the city center, transfer times typically range from 20 to 40 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; fares can vary from modest fixed-rate airport taxis to slightly cheaper app-based services. Public transport includes express buses and regular city buses that are economical but slower, with journeys often taking 40–60 minutes.

Cons: peak-hour congestion and varying service levels on budget flights can affect comfort and predictability.
