The airport sits about 10 km southeast of central Riga, usually a 15–25 minute drive depending on traffic. Public buses (notably route 22 and airport shuttles) take roughly 25–35 minutes and can cost around €1–3, while taxis and rideshares commonly range €10–25. The terminal is compact and modern, making transfers convenient, though peak-season crowds and occasional remote-stand boarding for low-cost flights can be less comfortable.
Galeão–Antonio Carlos Jobim (GIG) is Rio’s primary international gateway and a full-service hub that typically handles most long-haul and many domestic flights.

The airport sits on Ilha do Governador, roughly 20–25 km from downtown Rio; travel times vary widely with traffic (about 30–75 minutes). Options include airport express buses and BRT connections, regular city buses (approx. BRL 4–8), taxis or rideshares (approx. BRL 60–140), and car hire.
