Connectivity To & From the Airport
Once you've collected your bags, the next question is usually the same: what's the easiest way into the city?
The answer depends on where you're going, how much luggage you're carrying and whether you're more interested in saving time or money.
Taxi/Cab
The simplest option for many travellers. Licensed taxis are normally easy to find outside the arrivals hall, and in many cities you'll either pay a fixed fare or travel by meter.
Ride-sharing
Ride-share services are available at many airports, although collection points aren't always outside the terminal doors. A quick look at the app before you walk out can save a surprising amount of time.
Public Transport
If there's a train, metro or airport bus, it's often the fastest way into the city during rush hour. It's also usually the cheapest—provided you don't mind carrying your luggage.
Shuttle Services
Shared airport shuttles are a practical choice for hotels and popular tourist districts. They're not always the quickest, but they can be a good balance between cost and convenience.
Car Hire
Planning a road trip? Most major airports have rental desks either inside the terminal or a short shuttle ride away. Booking before you travel generally gives you more choice and better prices.
Parking
Dropping someone off? Heading away for a week? Airports usually have separate areas for short stays and longer parking, with shuttle buses linking larger car parks to the terminal where needed.

Travel tips for Courtenay
Make the most of your journey through Courtenay-BC with these helpful tips.
Early Arrival
Get there earlier than you think you need to. Two hours for domestic, three for international — and that's the minimum. Mumbai traffic has humbled many confident travellers. Don't be one of them.
Security Check
Have your documents out before you're asked. Boarding pass, ID — keep them accessible, not buried in your bag. At security, pull out your laptop and liquids before you reach the tray. The person behind you will silently thank you.
Payments and Currency
Sort your money before you land in a panic. The airport has ATMs and currency exchange counters across all terminals. That said, most places accept cards — so unless you need cash specifically, you're probably fine without hunting down a counter.
Stay Connected
Download your flight booking app. Seriously, Free Wi-Fi is available at the airport, but your flight booking app does the heavy lifting — live flight updates, gate changes, and your boarding pass all in one place. Much better than refreshing a browser tab at the gate.
Visa & Documentation
Check your passport validity tonight, not at the airport. It needs at least 6 months validity from your travel date. Visa requirements vary wildly by destination, so look those up well in advance — not the night before.
Access to Lounges
Lounges are more accessible than most people realize. If you have a premium credit card, check if it includes lounge access — many do and people forget to use it. It's a noticeably better way to wait, especially on a long layover.
