The airport lies about 6–8 km east of the historic center; taxi rides usually take 15–25 minutes and can be expected to cost modest sums, while shared minibuses and occasional city buses may take 20–35 minutes for lower fares. Pros: convenient proximity to downtown and straightforward arrivals. Cons: limited late-night services and fewer long-haul connection options compared with larger international hubs.
