Bus journeys from the airport to hotel are measures in "Beiraes" (pronounced "beers"). A one beirai journey is about 12-15 mins, a two beiraes trip 25-35 mins and I don't know of any 3 beiraes journeys due to BALPA regs on our distance from slip hotels.

A two beiraes trip on a weekday evening can be equivalent to a one beirai on a Sunday.

Once day I'll fathom it out and post the exact conversion for beiraes > minutes > kilometres here on PPRuNe.
