The airport sits about 12 km (roughly 20–30 minutes by car) southeast of downtown Chișinău; taxis and rideshare services are the quickest option, often costing in a moderate local range, while public buses and minibuses connect the airport to the city center in approximately 30–45 minutes for a very low fare.
