Transportation from Santo Domingo City Center to Santo Domingo Airport
There is no public transportation from Santo Domingo City Center to the airport. Transfer options include taxi, private transfer and Uber.
There are plenty of taxis in the city, and if you're not visiting Santo Domingo in high season, you won't have any trouble finding a taxi. The city center is located 30 km from Las Américas International Airport and the journey takes 45 minutes under normal traffic conditions.
Before you start your journey, it is useful to confirm your destination and the average price. Considering that most taxi drivers don't speak a foreign language, Uber seems like a much better option. Thus, when the journey is over, you know how much you will pay, and you can make your journey with peace of mind.
As another option, you can book a private transfer from the trusted websites of well-known global companies, and have you picked up from your hotel and dropped off at the airport.
If you are looking for an economical option, like some travelers, you can reach the airport after about an hour's journey by Boca Chica bus from the city center, get off at the Santo Domingo Airport junction and walk for about three kilometers.
Transportation from Asunción Airport to the City Center
Asunción Airport, or Silvio Pettirossi International Airport, with its official name, is located in Luque, Paraguay, but is known as the main airport of the capital Asunción.
The most economical way to go from Asunción Airport to the city center is the minibus-style buses that run to the city center. To get on this bus, you have to leave the terminal building and walk to the bus stop 300 meters away.
Buses with the same line number in Paraguay can go to the same destination using different routes. Here too, if you take the green number 30, you will reach the center via Mariscal López Road, and if you take the blue number 30, you will reach the center via España road.
These two routes are not far from each other, and the buses both leave their passengers at stops within walking distance of their accommodation in the city. The journey takes between 40 minutes and one hour depending on the traffic situation. You can pay the ticket price to the driver in cash. These buses operate between 05:00 in the morning and 22:00 in the evening. If you are carrying a large suitcase, it is recommended to take a taxi instead of these buses.
As soon as you exit the terminal building, you can see the taxis lined up on the road waiting for passengers. There are taxis available 24 hours a day. Although it is recommended to take a taxi from the airport station for security reasons, if you want to bargain and make a more economical taxi ride, you can go to the bus stop mentioned above and negotiate with a taxi passing by.
It is among the news that these taxis carry passengers at almost half the prices. A 30 percent night tariff is added to taxi fares between 22:00 at night and 06:00 in the morning.
You can easily use passenger transport applications such as Uber and Bolt in Asunción. Thus, you do not have to have cash and you have a safer journey because you have a record in the application.
One option is to rent a car from trusted car rental companies that have offices in the terminal, such as Sixt and Europcar, and explore the city yourself. Thus, you can also handle your airport transfer.
