==Ground transportation== | |||
[[Taxicab|Taxis]] are the most common form of transport to and from the city, as it is a 15 to 20-minute ride to the city centre. There is a mini-bus service that passes by the airport, but it only serves a single route to the city centre via Great East Road. Most major [[car hire]] companies are represented at the airport. | |||
