If you arrive on an international flight, such as from Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston or 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 the shared baggage claim and pass through customs.
Domestic passengers go straight to baggage claim and then into the arrivals area.
The ground floor has shops, places to eat and waiting areas. Plan your ride into the city before you land: a pre-booked transfer, a taxi or a rental car. If you booked a transfer, your driver waits for you as you leave the arrivals area.
A pre-booked driver meets you at arrivals and takes you to your hotel in San Luis Potosí. It suits business travelers and anyone with luggage.
Taxis serve the terminal. Confirm the destination before you set off.
Useful for trips to the Huasteca Potosina and Xilitla, several hours' drive from the city.
