Airport Transportation in San Pedro Sula

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Ramón Villeda Morales 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.

Our airport transportation in San Pedro Sula runs from Ramón Villeda Morales International Airport to hotels, homes and offices across San Pedro Sula and La Lima, including the industrial parks around the city.

San Pedro Sula Airport Transfers

Our San Pedro Sula airport transfers start just outside the arrivals exit, where your driver waits with a sign showing your name. The airport has one terminal, so there is only one exit to look for, and we track your flight so the pickup follows your real landing time.

Choose a vehicle sized for your party, from a sedan for a business trip to a van for a family visit or a work team, and each San Pedro Sula airport transfer goes door to door to your hotel, family home or office. Going on to Tela, La Ceiba or Copán? Enter the address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.

San Pedro Sula Airport Shuttle

Our San Pedro Sula airport shuttle is a private van for your party only: it leaves as soon as you have your bags and goes straight to your address, with no stops for other passengers. There is room for suitcases and boxes, so it suits families visiting relatives, church and volunteer groups, and teams heading to the industrial parks.

Landing at San Pedro Sula Airport

Ramón Villeda Morales International Airport (SAP) is in La Lima, southeast of San Pedro Sula, and is one of Honduras' main international gateways. One terminal handles all domestic and international flights, with check-in, immigration, customs and baggage claim in the same building.

After landing you pass immigration and customs, collect your bags and walk out of the arrivals hall. Car rental counters are inside the hall, and pre-booked drivers wait just outside the exit. ATMs and exchange booths are in the terminal.

Honduras is on Central Standard Time (UTC−6) all year and does not observe daylight saving time.

Entry requirements and local notes

Entry rules. Honduras made its online immigration pre-check optional for most travelers in 2024, keeping it only for certain nationalities. Check the Instituto Nacional de Migración (INM) website shortly before you fly, and keep your passport ready for immigration and customs.

Addresses. Give the full address with the neighborhood (colonia) and a nearby landmark, so your driver finds a family home or office without delay.

Lempira currency. Honduras uses the lempira (HNL), and ATMs and exchange booths are inside the terminal.

Heat and humidity. San Pedro Sula is hot and humid most of the year, so keep light clothing and water handy when you step outside.
