Tbilisi International Airport.
Tbilisi's airport lies about 17 km southeast of the city. Municipal bus 337 runs into town, and taxis are available at the terminal around the clock. Many flights arrive at night, when a taxi booked through an app or your accommodation is the simplest choice.
If you are heading straight out of the city, to Kakheti or Mtskheta, a pre-arranged driver can save a trip into the centre and back.
Kutaisi International Airport.
Kutaisi's airport, about 14 km west of the city, serves many budget flights. Bus companies listed by the airport run transfers to Kutaisi and on to Tbilisi and Batumi. A railway station about 1.8 km away is linked to the terminal by a free shuttle.
Kutaisi is a good first night in western Georgia: it is close to Gelati, Prometheus Cave and Okatse Canyon. See our Kutaisi guide and Imereti region guide.
Batumi International Airport.
Batumi's airport sits on the southern edge of the city, a short ride from the centre. Municipal bus 10 links it with the city, and taxis wait outside. It is convenient for a Black Sea coast stay or for Gonio Fortress just to the south.
Regional airports.
Small domestic airports serve Mestia, Ambrolauri and a few other towns, with limited and often seasonal flights. They can save a long mountain drive to Mestia, but flights depend on the weather, so keep a road alternative in mind.
