If you know someone in Basra, ask for their help first to go to the airport. If you need to arrange your transportation yourself, you can take the taxi or use the airport shuttles. Basra does not have a means of public transportation to get the airport. The hotels also do not provide airport shuttle service.
Almost everyone who has a car in the city can offer taxi services, so you will not have trouble finding a taxi. But you should not forget that especially the foreigners are charged very high fares. You should negotiate the price with the driver beforehand. You can ask your hotel to arrange a taxi for you. In normal traffic conditions, you will arrive at the airport within half an hour.
