How do I get from Kutaisi Airport to Batumi, where do the airport buses stop in Batumi, and can I book tickets in advance?

The most practical option from Kutaisi Airport to Batumi is a direct airport shuttle timed to incoming flights. If you land around 14:30, it is usually realistic to continue to Batumi the same day.

Boarding at Kutaisi Airport is usually right outside the terminal, so you do not need to go to a separate bus station in Kutaisi. After baggage claim, head to the shuttle area in front of the airport building.

The main source of confusion in Batumi is usually not the timetable but the stop itself, because different operators may use different pick-up and drop-off points. It is better to trust the exact address on your ticket rather than general forum advice.

You can try to buy tickets to Kutaisi Airport in advance, but travelers often run into website errors. In that case, the usual workaround is to try the official carrier channel again or buy on the spot if seats are still available.

If you are going from Batumi to Kutaisi Airport, confirm both the operator and the exact departure address: different websites may show different transfer points for what looks like the same route. The safest approach is to recheck your ticket and booking confirmation on the day of travel.
