Keifuku Bus runs a Komatsu Airport line to the east exit of Fukui station, about 30 scheduled calls between 07:49 and 21:55.

The stop is called Komatsu Airport, in Keifuku Bus's published network data.
The Komatsu Airport line runs between the airport and the east exit of Fukui station.
It has about 30 scheduled calls, running 07:49 to 21:55.
Fukui is in the next prefecture, so this is a cross-border link rather than a city shuttle.
Komatsu serves Kanazawa as well, and is often listed as Kanazawa's airport even though it is in Komatsu city.
The Hokuriku Shinkansen now reaches Kanazawa, Komatsu and Fukui, which has changed the calculation for domestic travel here.
Komatsu city itself is small, and the airport sits on the coast beside it.
The airport shares its runways with a Japan Air Self-Defense Force base.

Keifuku Bus runs a line named for Komatsu Airport, linking the terminal with the east exit of Fukui station.
About 30 scheduled calls appear in the published timetable, running 07:49 to 21:55.
Fukui is in a different prefecture from the airport, which sits in Ishikawa. This is a regional link, timed around flights rather than commuting.

Komatsu is commonly described as Kanazawa's airport. It is about 30 km south-west of Kanazawa, in Komatsu city.
Kanazawa is the reason most visitors are in the region: the Kenrokuen garden, the Higashi Chaya district, the fish market.
Fukui is the other end of the Hokuriku corridor, with the dinosaur museum at Katsuyama and the Eiheiji temple.

The Hokuriku Shinkansen now runs through Komatsu and Fukui, having been extended south from Kanazawa.
That makes the train a serious competitor to flying between the Hokuriku coast and Tokyo, and it is worth comparing before you book.
The airport is not on the Shinkansen, so a bus or taxi is still needed at this end.

It shares its runway with a Japan Air Self-Defense Force base, which is why the site is larger than the passenger traffic suggests.
It handles domestic flights plus a small number of international routes.
