Transportation from the City Center to Havana Airports
Havana, the capital of Cuba, has two flight areas, Jose Marti International Airport and Playa Baracoa Airport. Jose Marti International Airport, which connects Havana with the world, is known as the largest airspace in the country. Approximately 4 million passengers visit the airport annually.
Transportation from City Center to Jose Marti International Airport
The distance between the city center and Jose Marti International Airport is approximately 18 kilometers. Those who want to go to the airport from the city center prefer transportation options such as train, taxi, bus and car rental.
Those who want to go to the airport by public transportation can take the buses that depart every 30 minutes between 10:00 and 22:00, but it is not recommended for guests coming to Havana to use the bus because of the crowded and irregular departure times. In addition, you have to walk about two kilometers to get to the area where the bus stops are located. It is possible to reach the airport in 20-25 minutes by using the taxis in the city center instead of the bus.
You can also go to the airport by taking the train from Havana Central Train Station. Another alternative for airport transportation is car rental. Rental offices in the city center or the airport are very helpful to tourists in this sense.
