Transportation to Airport from Baghdad City Center
Baghdad Intl. Airport
Traveling to Baghdad Airport from the city centre by Baghdad city buses, taxi or rental cars is quite easy. You can make a both safe and affordable journey by means of transportation such as private or shared taxis, armored or normal coaches or rental car, all of which can easily be found in the city.
Bus
Baghdad buses, which are called Rhino Runners, provide transportation to several locations in the city and to Baghdad Airport from the city centre. Due to some security problems going on in Baghdad and Iraq, these buses are armored. Locals and the tourists visiting the city usually prefer taxis and their own private vehicles for transportation.
Taxi
If you don’t have an internationally valid driver licence, taxi is the safest means of transportation in Baghdad, where public transportation is under-developed. Contrary to popular belief, traveling by the yellow and white taxis, which can be found anywhere in the city, is budget friendly.
Nearly none of the taxis in Baghdad have taximeter, so tell your destination to the taxi driver and try bargaining before getting on the car. You can easily travel to Baghdad airport by taxi from any location in the city, and this journey takes about 30 – 35 minutes. Also, you can travel at a cheaper price by choosing shared taxis.

By following the road signs, you can drive to Baghdad Airport in about 20 – 25 minutes in your rental car.
