Ramón Villeda Morales International Airport

Ramón Villeda Morales International Airport is about 11 km (7 miles) southeast of San Pedro Sula. The drive to downtown and the main hotel district usually takes 20 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic on Boulevard del Este (CA-13). Allow more time during weekday rush hours, when traffic around the city can slow the trip.

No. The airport is in the neighboring municipality of La Lima, in Cortés Department, about 11 km southeast of central San Pedro Sula. It sits between San Pedro Sula and La Lima along the main road east, so the trip into the city is short, but you will need a taxi, rideshare or private driver to get there.

San Pedro Sula airport has one passenger terminal that handles all domestic and international flights. Check-in, immigration, customs and baggage claim are in the same building. The terminal has been expanded with additional boarding bridges, more seating and self-service check-in kiosks, so you will not need to change terminals between flights.

Airlines serving San Pedro Sula include American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, JetBlue and Frontier Airlines to US cities, Copa Airlines to Panama City, Avianca to San Salvador and Guatemala City, Aeroméxico to Mexico City and Air Europa to Madrid. TAG Airlines and Tropic Air fly to Guatemala City and Belize City. All use the single terminal.

Yes. Authorized taxis wait at the curb just outside the arrivals hall. They do not use meters, so agree on the fare with the driver or the official transport desk before you get in. The ride to downtown San Pedro Sula takes about 20 to 30 minutes. Avoid offers from people approaching you inside the terminal.

No public city bus routes serve the airport. To catch an intercity bus, take a taxi or rideshare to the Gran Central Metropolitana bus terminal in San Pedro Sula, about 15 km from the airport, where national and international routes depart. For most arriving travelers, a taxi or pre-arranged driver is the practical way into the city.

Yes, Uber operates in San Pedro Sula. Request a ride in the app once you have collected your luggage and follow its instructions for the pickup point, which is usually in front of the terminal doors or in the parking area. Availability can be thinner late at night, so have a backup plan such as an official taxi.

Honduras made its online immigration pre-check (prechequeo migratorio) optional for most travelers in 2024, keeping it only for certain nationalities. Requirements can change, so check the Instituto Nacional de Migración (INM) website shortly before you travel. You will still pass through immigration and customs on arrival, so keep your passport and any requested documents ready.

Copán Ruinas, the town next to the Maya site of Copán, lies west of San Pedro Sula near the Guatemalan border. There is no direct public transport from the airport, so travelers either drive, use a pre-arranged driver, or take a taxi to the city's bus terminal and continue by intercity bus. The road trip takes several hours.

Tela and La Ceiba are east of San Pedro Sula along the Caribbean coast, with Tela the closer of the two. From the airport you can drive, use a pre-arranged driver, or take a taxi to the city's bus terminal for an intercity bus. La Ceiba is also where ferries leave for the Bay Islands of Roatán and Utila.

San Pedro Sula uses Central Standard Time (UTC−6) all year, with no daylight saving time. The currency is the Honduran lempira (HNL), and you will find ATMs and exchange booths inside the terminal. The city is hot and humid for most of the year, so light clothing and water are useful when you step outside.

The airport is run by the Servicio Aeroportuario Nacional (SAN), a Honduran state agency that took over after more than two decades of private concession management. It handled more than 1.3 million passengers in 2024 and moves over 60% of Honduras' air cargo. It has one runway, 2,886 m long, and first opened in 1965.
