Public Transport in Indonesia Airports

Major international airports in Indonesia like Auckland Airport, Wellington Airport, Christchurch Airport and Queenstown Airport are well connected with public transportation. There are numerous public transportation options both to and from these major international airports.

Buses are the cheapest and most common form of public transport available for travelling between airport to the city center. Intercity and Naked Bus are the two main providers of this service, and fares start from around NZ$10.

Public buses ply the streets of larger cities and are always an adventure, but the private taxis and shuttle do a fine job at a decent price.

Renting a car at the airport is an option if you need to get to a smaller destination, but driving yourself should only be considered if you an excellent driver with nerves of steel.

Although not public transport, hop-on hop-off buses are also a popular way to get around Indonesia, especially among backpackers. Choose your pass and make up your itinerary as you go along.
