Tbilisi International Airport

Tbilisi International Airport, also known as Novo Alexeyevka Airport and Shota Rustaveli Airport, is Georgia's busiest and largest airport, serving more than three million passengers annually and situated 17 km southeast of Tbilisi.

Airport has two passenger terminals for arrivals and departures; its newly renovated terminal features three boarding bridges, 25 check-in counters, five boarding gates with food/beverages service, gift shops and duty free shopping areas and five remote aircraft parking positions for remote aircraft parking as well as banks and currency exchange offices.

Get There

The airport is easily accessible via public transport, such as buses that run every 10-20 minutes throughout the day and stop at various key locations; one-way tickets cost 8 GEL per person while round trip costs can range between 20-50 GEL.

Taxis are available outside the airport 24 hours a day with one way fares ranging between 30-50 GEL to the city centre.

Renting a Car

Tbilisi International Airport provides car rental agencies such as Avis, Budget and Hertz; however, I prefer using Local Rent as it aggregates local agents to offer better value.

Traveling to Tbilisi

Tbilisi is an increasingly popular tourist destination, and the airport can become very crowded during its peak tourist season. To avoid lengthy queues at the airport, book your flight well in advance and arrive several hours early before your scheduled departure.

If you plan to stay longer in Tbilisi, investing in a MetroMoney Card could be the smart choice. Reloadable at bank of Georgia service counters at airport terminals as well as metro stations and major bus stands across Tbilisi is convenient and allows access to public transport networks like metro lines or major bus stands.
