Tbilisi - Post Report Question and Answers

What is your home city/country? How long is the trip to post from there, with what connections? How easy/difficult is it to travel to this city/country?

The United States, easy flight through Qatar or Munich to get there. Getting out Georgia into the region or elsewhere is tricky - flights are at odd times in the middle of the night, making a quick regional weekend jaunt significantly less appealing. The airport is small yet has outsized lines and is not well run. Travel within Georgia is relatively easy with a car but driving is some of the most unsafe I’ve encountered anywhere in the world. - Aug 2023


Los Angeles, CA. Traveled from Washington DC during the summer of 2020. Due to this, it was a chartered flight from Amsterdam to Tbilisi. It took about 18 hours. Now, there are many flights from Europe. - Sep 2022


From Wisconsin, it is a 30+ hour trip. The most difficult part is the time difference. Basically, you arrive two days after leaving the US. - Jun 2020


Chicago, IL. About 22-24 hours door to door. Right not there is no direct connection from Tbilisi to the States, but we're hearing rumors that may change. - Jan 2019


Western PA - Approximately 26 hours door-to-door. We fly either through Istanbul or Munich (with an nine hour layover on the return)- flights out of Tbilisi are limited. Also, they often depart/arrive between 3:30 and 5:30 am. It's a rough trip. - Apr 2017
