What travellers should know
Because the airport is relatively compact, arriving and departing is generally more straightforward than at a major hub, which can be a real benefit if you are travelling with children, limited time, or plans to head straight to the falls. Even so, it is wise to confirm ground transport before arrival, especially if you need a hotel shuttle, taxi, or transfer to nearby attractions. Checking the official airport website before travel is also worthwhile for current passenger information, facility updates, and any operational notices that could affect your journey.
