Most travelers fly long-haul to Tahiti Faa'a International Airport, then connect on Air Tahiti to Tikehau Airport. The Papeete to Tikehau hop is roughly one hour on nonstop or near-nonstop routings, while Rangiroa to Tikehau sectors can be about 20 minutes on route days. Lodgings normally meet guests at the airport; motu resorts continue by boat. Build a buffer before international departure because small-island flights and lagoon transfers are weather-sensitive.
Tikehau has no rideshare scene and limited ad-hoc taxi supply. Most movement is arranged through lodgings, dive shops, or boat operators.
