How to get to Batumi Airport early in the morning (e.g., for a 5 AM flight)?

A traveler asked if buses run to the airport at 5 AM — according to locals, public transport isn't operating yet at that hour, buses start later in the morning. For an early flight, it's more reliable to book a taxi through an app.

Batumi Airport has no luggage storage service at all — travelers report you can't leave your suitcase there, so you need to arrange storage in the city beforehand.

For getting to the airport at any hour, including night and early morning, the common recommendation is a taxi via Bolt or Yandex Go — a ride from central Batumi to the airport costs around 15-20 GEL and takes about 15-20 minutes.

One traveler specifically asked about an airport with reliable electricity, hinting at occasional power issues at the terminal — it's worth allowing extra time and not counting on outlets/charging in the waiting area.
