Hotel Shuttles

See Airport Hotels above.

Minibus

Travel as the locals do! If your load is light, you can travel at a fraction of the price of a taxi by taking a “marshrutka” (shared-ride minibus), which travels along fixed routes. Before hopping in, check with the driver to ensure they are heading to (or from) the airport.

Taxis

Metered taxis are readily available for hire in the ground transportation area. At the time of this update, the one-way fare between the airport and Yerevan city center is AMD 4.500.

Pro-Tip: A reader tells us, ” If you are travelling to Armenia, the taxi application, “GG” is a must-have tool throughout your stay. Using a GG taxi from the airport to the main square will cost approx. 1500-2000AMD(3-4$). They are very honest and polite and usually know at least Russian and/or English. The alternatives are the “Yandex” taxi – check the price rate before ordering and the U-taxi – which usually requires tips for rush hours

Security & Safety

Sleeping in any airport can include a certain level of risk, especially when travelling alone. It’s important to take certain precautions to ensure your safety and the security of your valuables. Here are a few tips:

Safety First. It’s a good idea to know where the security office is located and look for video cameras where you plan to sleep. You can also ask the security personnel for advice on the safest places to spend the night.
Don’t Seclude Yourself. If you’re travelling alone, we recommend you stay near other travellers or close to security. This will help you feel more secure and deter potential thieves.
Hide Your Valuables. It’s also important to hide your valuables. Don’t leave them out in plain view, as this could make you a target for theft. Additionally, if you are a deep sleeper, you may want to padlock your bag to something or sleep with your bag up against a wall to make it harder for someone to access zippers and pockets. We have received reports of sleepers who woke up without their phones and laptop bags. The travellers were left with just their headphones and laptop bag strap.
Stay Alert. It’s best to stay alert and awake if you feel unsafe or uncomfortable. Drink coffee or other caffeinated beverages to help you stay awake, and remember that you can always catch up on sleep during your flight. These simple precautions can help you enjoy a safe night at the airport.
