There are highway bus services to both Sendai (3 hours, 40 minutes; 10 services daily) and Tokyo (8 hours, 20 minutes, 1 daily service) as well as long distance buses to Yuzawa, Yokote and Noshiro run by Ugo Kotsu.
The buses from downtown Akita city to Akita Airport run from outside the Town Hall via Akita Station and take 35 minutes from Akita Station. The first bus from Akita Station is at 6.30am with the last bus at 6.40pm.
