Hey all,
I'm heading out to Ishigaki and Iriomote in the last week for April for a week. I'm trying to coordinate the bus to the port and which ferry time to take after we land in Ishigaki Airport. There is a ferry we want to make that is exactly 1 hour after our landing, but I think this is cutting it reeaaaallly close. I don't want to miss this ferry and have to buy a second ticket for a different time. There is also an express bus to the port that is 20 min after we land but I'm not sure if that's feasible either. A taxi would be Plan B if it'll just get us there faster.
How busy is this airport? About how long will baggage claim take on average? Are there taxis waiting outside this airport? (I read online that most taxis on Ishigaki and Iriomote have to be reserved in advance.) Like should I budget an hour or more just to get out of this airport?
