Transportation from Papeete City Center to Faa'a International Airport
Tahiti's main airport, Faa'a Airport, is located very close to the city center of Papeete. The easiest way to get to Papeete Airport from the center is taxis, although they are more expensive than buses.
It can be difficult to find a taxi on the street after 6 pm, but there are two taxi stands by the sea in Papeete city centre. Although the prices are fixed and determined by the state, it is useful to confirm the fare to the airport before taking a taxi. After 8:30 p.m., prices increase by a few dollars.
Credit cards are not valid in taxis. You have to pay the driver in cash. As a precaution for drivers who are coy about change, make sure to have coins with you. In order to avoid all kinds of negative situations, write down the license plate of the taxi you take in a corner. Taxis can depart from in front of hotels as well as from fixed stops. However, the best guarantee is to call a taxi from the reception of a hotel.
