Key Features of the Airlines

Transportation to Airport from Nairobi City Center

Jomo Kenyatta Intl. Airport

You can reach the airport from Nairobi city center by taxi or the airport shuttle service that is provided by your hotel. There are the minibuses called 'matatu' and the buses for the passengers who prefer public transportation. Renting a car is another transportation alternative you can prefer. You should keep in mind that the traffic in the city is particularly dense during the day, and you should set out early no matter which means of transportation you prefer.

Bus

You can get on the bus number 34 departing from the city center to reach the airport. Ticket price only costs 50 KES and your journey takes about 40 minutes.

Hotel Shuttle Services

Hotel shuttle services offered by the hotels are one of the most comfortable transportation alternatives if you don’t want to lose time with renting a car because it is necessary to bargain with taxi drivers and means of public transportation are troublesome. If your hotel provides this service, you need to contact your hotel in advance and make a reservation to take advantage of this service.

Taxi

Taking a taxi is generally a frequently preferred transportation option in the city. However, you should remember that you need to bargain for taxi fare. If you are going to take a taxi to reach the airport, you can ask your hotel to help you with this, so you can travel by a trusted and safer taxi. You can reach the airport in about half an hour by taking a taxi.  

Matatu

In addition to the buses, matatu option is also available for those who prefer public transportation. You can reach the airport by these minibuses that are quite cheap, but you should keep in mind that you might have difficulty if you have lots of luggage because matatu minibuses are very crowded and the drivers usually drive fast and carelessly.

Rent a car

You can find the offices of many car rental companies in the city center. You need to drive straight through the A101 Mombasa road to reach the airport. If you are going to rent a car only to reach the airport, you can rent a car with a driver or you can rent a car from a company that has an office at the airport.

You should keep in mind that the traffic flows on the left side and the traffic rules are not very effective. You should also remember that the traffic is extremely heavy at certain times before deciding on the time you will leave.  

Transportation to Manama City Center from Airport

Bahrain Intl. Airport

Many transportation options are available to the city center from Bahrain International Airport, including:

Bus

Buses are the most budget-friendly transportation option to the city center. Two main lines, A1 and A2, are the primary airport routes, running approximately every 30 minutes, with air-conditioned, spacious, and comfortable buses.

Minibus

Minibuses are less common alternatives to buses, as these are privately operated vehicles, and fares are typically lower than buses. However, they do not have a set schedule, availability can vary and can be crowded during peak hours. If you choose to use a minibus, it is advisable to confirm the destination with the driver before boarding.

Taxi

Taxis are the fastest options available, as transportation to the city center takes around 15-20 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. Make sure taxis are metered before your trip and if you seek alternatives ride-hailing services are available in Bahrain.

Car Rental

Many local and international car rental companies are available within Bahrain International Airport, offering an alternative option for transportation to the Manama city center. Make sure you have a valid international driving permit beforehand.
