Rail:

there are no rail services in Guernsey, so this isn't an option for travelling to and from the airport. Between public buses, hotel shuttles and taxis, there are plenty of other options for visitors.

Bus:

there are two main buses with service to Guernsey Airport: bus numbers 4 and 7. Both of these offer the cheapest means of getting to and from the terminal, but the trade-off is time. These buses connect to St Peter Port as well as several prominent tourist sites.

Taxi:

taxis queue up immediately outside of the Arrivals area and can carry passenger to any island destination. They're all consistently metered. This is the most convenient means of getting from the airport to your hotel or any other specific destination.

Car:

Guernsey Airport is only four miles from St Peter Port, the capital of Guernsey Island. It's specifically located in Forest Parish off La Villiaze Forrest Road. This convenient location makes it easy to approach by car.

If driving from the west, especially Vazon Bay, head toward St Andrew in an easterly direction. From here there is a well-marked south-bound turnoff that approaches the airport. From the east, pass through St Peter Port and turn south at St Andrew. Travelling from Forest in the south is easiest of all as there is one major road that leads directly to the airport.
