Arrival tips for General Guadalupe Victoria International Airport

Durango has one passenger terminal, and its gates open directly onto the apron, so you walk between the aircraft and the building.

If you arrive on an international flight, such as American Airlines from Dallas/Fort Worth or Volaris from Chicago, you clear immigration first. Have your passport and your flight details ready; visitors from many countries do not need a visa, but check the rules for your passport before you travel. After immigration, collect your bags at baggage claim and pass through customs.

Domestic passengers go straight to baggage claim and then into the arrivals area.

The car rental counters and the taxi stands are at the terminal. There is no public transport listed from the airport into the city, so arrange your ride before you land: a pre-booked transfer, a taxi from the stand or a rental car. If you booked a transfer, your driver waits for you as you leave the arrivals area.
