Transportation from the City Center to Guatemala City La Aurora International Airport
City buses to Guatemala City Airport, about 20 minutes from the city centre, usually stop at La Reforma or 7 Avenida in Zona 10. Therefore, it is necessary to reach La Reforma first by using the Transmetro or Transurbano buses from Guatemala City city center. You can also use the colorful chicken buses to go from the city center to La Aurora Airport.
But in Guatemala City, public buses are known to be unsafe, so taxi or Uber are better options to get to the airport, which is 6km from the city centre. There are metered or fixed rate taxis available in Guatemala City. The yellow ones (Taxis Amarillo) are taximeter vehicles, but you cannot turn them from the street, you have to call 1766 to your address.
Yellow taxis are cheaper than white taxis without a meter. For this reason, it is best to negotiate the price before getting into white taxis, because they are used to getting higher fares from foreigners.
