DAMRI shuttle buses also serve the airport, taking around 1.5 hours depending on traffic and offering a cheaper alternative. Taxis are available at fixed counters but the journey by road can take over an hour and is subject to traffic. Ride-share services like Grab are widely used but pickup restrictions may apply directly at the terminal, often requiring a short walk. Car rentals are available but not recommended for the city center due to traffic and limited parking. Most travelers use the airport train for its speed and reliability."
