Access and Transportation
General Santos International Airport is approximately 14 kilometers away from the central business district of General Santos City. A concrete 6-kilometer Philippine-American Friendship Road connects the airport to the Pan Philippine Highway leading to the city proper as well as to the nearby provinces.
Air-conditioned taxicabs and rent-a-car services are readily available at the airport's taxi and bus stand right outside the arrival area of the terminal building. Public utility jeepneys/mini cabs provide regular direct shuttle service from the airport to the city's central business district at a minimum fare of PHP 50 per passenger. Major hotels and hospitality centers in the city and elsewhere in the region have their individual shuttle service and assistance provided at the airport's taxi and bus stand.

Famous quotes containing the word access:
“In the greatest confusion there is still an open channel to the soul. It may be difficult to find because by midlife it is overgrown, and some of the wildest thickets that surround it grow out of what we describe as our education. But the channel is always there, and it is our business to keep it open, to have access to the deepest part of ourselves.”
—Saul Bellow (b. 1915)
