Public Transport: There is no public transport to and from the airport, although a train link is being talked about. If it goes ahead, it will be many years before there is one.

Private Buses and Shuttles: The cheapest and quickest way into the city is on the official Skybus Super Shuttle. It costs $15 one way (in 2006).
