Airport Transportation in San Luis Potosí

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Ponciano Arriaga International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

From San Luis Potosí's airport we take you to the historic center, the hotels and homes of Lomas, the plants of the industrial zone and the logistics parks along Highway 57, and farther out to Real de Catorce, with airport transportation in San Luis Potosí booked before your flight.

San Luis Potosí Airport Transfers

Your driver meets you at the arrivals exit with a sign showing your name. We track your flight, so the pickup moves with any delay, and the price for the whole vehicle is fixed before you fly.

San Luis Potosí airport transfers run door to door in sedans, SUVs and vans for groups: to hotels in the historic center and along Carranza, business stays near the industrial zone, homes in Lomas, and longer trips to Real de Catorce or the Huasteca Potosina.

San Luis Potosí Airport Shuttle

The San Luis Potosí airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, leaving as soon as you have your bags, with no stops for other passengers. It has room for luggage and gear and suits work teams visiting the plants, families, and groups heading to Real de Catorce or the Huasteca.

Landing at San Luis Potosí Airport

Ponciano Arriaga International Airport (SLP) sits north of San Luis Potosí city, off Highway 57. It has one terminal, so baggage claim and the arrivals exit are a short walk from the gate.

International arrivals clear immigration and customs inside the same terminal; queues are usually short. The city is at about 1,850 m (6,100 ft), with cool nights for much of the year. San Luis Potosí is on Central Mexico time.

Entry requirements and local notes

  • Entry to Mexico: international arrivals need a passport valid for the length of the stay; keep any entry record you're given until you leave.
  • Customs: you may be asked to press the customs button after baggage claim; declare goods over your duty-free allowance.
  • Industrial zone addresses: give the company name, park and gate when you book; plants there often have several entrances.
  • Pickup: meet your driver at the arrivals exit described in your confirmation, not with drivers offering rides in the hall.
