Hi!
Thank you for the latest information! It’s really hard to get something concerning the new airport!
Can you tell me please if passengers have to buy any cards to pay for the public buses?
And is it possible to get to the new airport from the raiway station for 2 hours (on a Saturday morning: 7 – 9 am)?
And one more question, how can I book a transfer from this website if my russian bank card will not be accepted?
Thank you so much!
When will public buses run again?
Hi. We are not sure right now. Once it runs again, we will update the info.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I will have a short layover in Ulaanbaatar and would like to see if I can book a pick up from the airport, going to the Chinggis Khaan statue and to the hotel. Could you send me a quote if this is possible?
Kind regards
Anna
