Transportation to Bengaluru Airport from the City Center

Reaching Bengaluru International Airport, located about 37 kilometers from Bangalore city center, is extremely easy. If you would like to choose a fast and economical means of transportation to reach Bengaluru International Airport, which is one of India's busiest and most advanced airports, from the city's central points, it will be useful to choose shuttle services. If your preference is a little expensive but fast means of transportation, you can get to the airport with one of the city taxis or you can consider renting a car by talking to car rental companies.

Shuttle

Departing from the city center of Bangalore, shuttle services transport airport passengers to the terminal building in 30 to 45 minutes. These are one of the fastest vehicles that can be preferred for getting to the airport. You have to pay for the shuttles upon departure from the center in Indian currency, but you can also pay in dollars or euros if you do not carry Indian currency on you.

Taxi

Taxis in Bangalore are one of the most expensive alternatives to get to the airport from the city center. However, if you have a little time left for your flight, you can save time by taking a taxi and reach the airport directly, without having to transfer, taking a taxi from your hotel or the place of your stay. Taxi service in the city is provided by different companies and credit cards are used in some cases. If you want to make a payment by card you can talk to the driver before taking the taxi and you can make your choice accordingly.

Bus

It is also very easy to use buses, which are another means of transportation taking passengers conveniently from the city center to Bengaluru Airport. With the buses you can reach the airport approximately at the same time as shuttles and taxis, but they do not depart frequently. For this reason, especially those who are in a hurry can choose shuttle service or taxis to save time.

Car Rental

Car rental can also be preferred to get to the airport in Bangalore. Since the airport is not located in a central point, renting a car is one of the most preferred means of transportation.

Because of this, you can deliver the car that you rented to reach the airport in the terminal and then you can easily continue your journey.
