Transportation from the City Center to Luxembourg Findel Airport
Luxembourg is the capital of the country of the same name. Founded in the 10th century, the city has a rich history and an important location due to its location in the heart of Europe. The country is located in the middle of France, Germany and Belgium. To the south of Luxembourg is the Petrusse River, to the north by the Alzette River, and in the middle is the Luxembourg Castle with a medieval castle. The only airport in the city is the international Luxembourg Findel Airport, one of the busiest airports in Europe and the world.
There are bus, taxi and car rental options for those who want to reach Luxembourg Airport, which is only 6 km away from the city.
There are two different bus lines in public transportation, which is one of the most convenient options. You can buy your tickets from the ticket machines available. Eurobus bus number 16 departs every 10 minutes on weekdays and every 20 minutes on weekends. Buses number 29 run every 15 minutes on weekdays and 30 minutes on weekends.
Another option is taxis. There is no such thing as hauling a taxi from the road in Luxembourg. The places where you can find taxis are points such as the city center, airport and train station. The average fare between the airport and the central train station is 30€.
Alternatively, you can reach the airport in a short time by renting a car.

Transportation from Bora Bora Airport to the City Center
Bora Bora Airport (BOB), also known as Motu Mute Airport, serves the island of Bora Bora in French Polynesia. The airport, which was built by the USA for military purposes during the Second World War, was opened to commercial flights only after 1958.
Since Bora Bora is a community of islets with a population of about 10 thousand and makes its living almost exclusively from tourism, public transportation opportunities are very limited. Most hotels on the island take their guests from the airport by boat and take them directly to their hotels. Some hotels even have their own offices in the terminal. Here they meet you and direct you to the right boat.
If your hotel does not provide this service, you must first take a boat ride to Bora Bora, the main island, to get to your hotel. If you came to the island by Air Tahiti, you can show your ticket and take the free Bora Bora Navette service of Air Tahiti and switch to the boats that pass to the opposite island.
You can use the Air Tahiti services at the place you get off, or you can take one of the buses with your hotel's name on it and set off for your last stop. You can find more information about Bora Bora Navette on the website.
You can also use a taxi to go to your hotel. Although there are a few companies that have passenger transport licenses on the island, they do not tour the island to find customers. So if you are going to take a taxi, you should contact in advance and arrange a meeting point. Your hotel reception or restaurants do this for you. Since taxis do not have a taximeter, you should talk about the price before the journey begins.
Since this is a collection of islets, there are sea taxis as well as normal taxis. If you don't want to wait for your hotel's free boat or if the next boat has more to come, water taxis can be a very good option. Below you can find the contact numbers of some taxi and water taxi companies.
Taxi Simplet (tel. 79.19.31)
Leon (tel. 70.69.16)
Otemanu Tours (tel. 67.70.49)
Jacques Isnard (tel. 67.72.25)
Dino's Land & Water Taxi (tel. 79.29.65).
You can also rent a car to get around the island. Europcar (tel. 800/227-7368) is one of the biggest and most reliable companies out there. Another local company is Fare-Piti Rent a Car (tel. 67.65.28).
Both businesses have offices at the Vaitape pier. You can rent not only cars but also motorcycles and bicycles from these companies. There are approximately 32 km of asphalt roads on the island. That's why you should always drive slowly and carefully, as pigs, chickens, dogs and pedestrians can jump on the road. Especially dogs cause many accidents.
