The airport lies about 10–12 km northeast of the city center; taxis usually take 15–25 minutes and can be the quickest option, while local buses and fixed-route shuttles may take 30–45 minutes for a lower cost. Pros: compact terminals, short walking distances, and straightforward check-in; cons: limited food and lounge choices, few onward international connections and less frequent service at off-peak times.
