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 Sangster International Airport to Montego Bay City Center
Montego Bay, or officially Sangster International Airport, is the main airport of the city of Montego Bay, Jamaica. Many resorts in Jamaica mostly offer free transfers to their customers. Check this first. If your hotel does not provide you with a transfer service, there are many means of transportation to the city.
The fastest of these is always to take a taxi. You can find a taxi every day of the week at Sangster International Airport. When you come out of the incoming floor, you will see the stop of JUTA and JCAL, two companies authorized to work at the airport.
JCAL vehicles are the taxis we know with the first letter of the red plate P (meaning Passenger/Passenger). These taxis generally stop at the airport and in front of big hotels. It is useful to talk about the total amount you will pay before you start the journey.
Although JUTA vehicles are listed as taxis on the airport's official website, they are actually minibus-like vehicles and drop their passengers to their hotels in Montego Bay. You can recognize these vehicles by the JUTA lettering on their red plates. Since these minibuses take off when they are full, like their names, the waiting time can sometimes reach 45 minutes.
If you don't want to wait, you can get shuttle service by paying a little more and set off immediately. You can check how much you will pay according to your destination on the official website of the airport.
Apart from the vehicles mentioned above, an airport transfer that you can reserve online before starting your journey stands out as a very comfortable option. Considering that you will be flooded with official and pirate taxi drivers as soon as you exit the terminal building, it is very comforting to have a professional welcoming you by name.
Thus, you will be left at the door of your hotel without thinking about anything. If you cannot trust the companies you will find online, the tour operators listed on the airport's official website may be of use to you.
There is so much to see on this gorgeous Caribbean island. You can rent your car from global car rental giants such as Avis and Hertz, which have offices on the airport arrivals floor, and go directly to the city center. Thus, you will both complete your Montego Bay transfer and experience the comfort of visiting the island according to your own schedule and route.
