Bus
A special bus line connects the airport with Iwakuni Railway Station, where you can transfer to JR WEST trains bound for Hiroshima or Miyajimaguchi.
The bus always departs 10-15 after the flight arrives and in case of flight delays, the bus will wait.
In the direction of the airport, the bus runs to be at the airport 40 minutes before departure, i.e. according to the exact schedule. This can be viewed on the official website: iwakunibus.notion.site (only available in Japanese).
In practice, this means that the bus departs from the train station about 50 minutes before the flight departs.
The journey from the station to the airport takes 7-10 minutes.
