Transportation to Airport from Taif City Center
Taif Regional Airport
Buses are the most convenient option that you can choose to reach the airport from Taif city center. You can also get to the airport by taxi or by renting a car from the city center.
Bus
Direct buses to the airport depart from Al Taif Station in Taif Al Faisaliah. Local bus services operated by SAPTCO depart on short intervals. According to the current information in SAPTCO's web site the fare you will pay for this trip, which is about 30 kilometers, is 15 Saudi Riyals and it takes about 1 hour. You can make your reservation at the official website of SAPTCO or you can get your ticket from the sales points. It is also possible to buy tickets from almost every stop.
Taxi
You must absolutely have an agreement with the driver about the fare before you start your journey, if you are taking a taxi without a taximeter. Otherwise, you can pay really high fares. Taxis are the least preferred means of transportation by visitors of Taif, where there is not much alternatives in terms of transportation in the city.
Taxi fares are more expensive than other means of transportation. This is why we recommend you take advantage of the bus or car rental service instead of taxis. You should be careful about the taxi you take. In Taif, limousine taxis, for example, are also available and they are much more expensive than regular taxis.
Car Rental
There are car rental companies located in the city as well as in Taif Airport. Car rental companies are as popular as local buses, as the oil prices here are low. In additions, there are extremely modern highways in Taif that has links to all nearby cities. You can go to the airport with your vehicle rented from Taif city and deliver it to the same car rental company in the terminal.
Airport Information
Taif Airport, 70 kilometers from Mecca and 30 kilometers from Taif city center, is an airport suitable for international and domestic flights. You will not find much shops and similar entertainment areas at Taif Airport, which is smaller than other airports in Saudi Arabia with regard to area and capacity.
Taif Airport is of great importance for the history of Saudi aviation. The first one to land this airport was Ibn Saud, the founder of the kingdom. It is an airport used both for military and public purposes.
In the terminal you can find a small parking area for cars and the offices of most preferred car rental companies throughout Saudi Arabia. You can also see bus stops and taxi stands, from where you can take a bus or taxi to Taif city center, at a short distance from the terminal exit.
The airport interior design is not too complicated as there is not much to do inside the airport. Several major airline companies, including Turkish Airlines, organize flights to Taif Airport.
Transportation to Aragarcas City Center from Airport
Aragarcas Airport
Aragarcas Airport, a few kilometres outside of Aragarcas in Brazil, is a small airport without a terminal used only for private jet flights. In order to reach this region you need to instead use the Barra do Garcas Airport, which is 16 kilometres away, or the Brasilia International Airport, which is 542 kilometres away. You can reach the centre of Aragarcas from both airports via taxi or shuttle services, you can also rent a car from Brasilia International Airport as you prefer.
Taxi
Barro do Garcas Airport is 16 kilometres from Aragarcas. From this airport you can take a taxi from outside the terminal and get to Aragarcas centre for a somewhat reasonable price.
Since Brasilia International Airport is more than 500 kilometres away from Aragarcas, to take a taxi from here would be a much more expensive alternative. Passengers wanting to get Aragarcas can get a bus going towards the Aragarcas region and then take local taxis or services once they are closer. From Barra do Garcas Airport the journey to Aragarcas should take 20-30 minutes, and 6-7 hour from Brasilia International Airport.
Airport Shuttle Services
You can use the airport shuttle services to Aragarcas from both airports. You will need to reserve a place beforehand. The comfortable service will take you directly to where you want in Aragarcas and the fees are calculated based on the distance from the point you take the shuttle to your end location. Those wanting to in hotels in and around Aragarcas can research to see if there are free or paid hotel shuttle services to and from both of the airports.
Car Rental
Renting a car is probably the best option for passengers landing at Brasilia International Airport, which is quite far from Aragarcas. It’s both an economic and comfortable option as it would cost a lot to take a taxi for the 500-kilometre distance and it’s sometimes hard to find a shuttle service. Those landing at Barra do Garcas Airport can take use local car rental agencies. However, if you just want to get to Aragarcas centre from Barra do Garcas Airport, and aren’t interested in exploring other local regions then it makes the most sense to pick a practical option such as taking a taxi.
