The Trans Semarang bus rapid transit system also serves the airport via its Airport Corridor, a dedicated high-deck bus service that runs into the evening, providing an affordable public transit option. Car rental counters are present at the airport for those who prefer to drive themselves, though traffic in Semarang can be congested during peak hours.

Taxis and ride‑share services are widely available and offer door‑to‑door convenience, though they can be slowed by heavy traffic; driving yourself is possible via the Prof. Dr. Ir.
