Kars Harakani Airport

Kars Harakani Airport Shuttle Schedule & Ticket Prices

Kars Harakani Airport sits about 6 km from the city centre, and there is no Havaş service here. The cheapest way into town is the airport bus run by Kars Municipality, which links the terminal to the centre for roughly 25 TRY. Because Kars is a small airport, this bus and the private shuttle (about 100 TRY) are generally timed around flight arrivals rather than a fixed clock, so it is worth confirming with the municipality on the day. If your flight lands outside those windows, taxis wait outside arrivals and reach the centre in 10–15 minutes for around 470 TRY. Most visitors come for the UNESCO-listed Ani Ruins on the Armenian border and the Sarıkamış ski resort, both longer runs best done by taxi or a pre-arranged transfer.
