Getting Around
How to get to and from Mount Pleasant Airport / RAF Mount Pleasant — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.
Transport Options at MPN
Mount Pleasant Airport / RAF Mount Pleasant is connected to Mount Pleasant and the wider Falkland Islands transport network by multiple ground transport options.
An arranged transfer bus to Stanley is organized for arriving passengers via the official tourism board, but this functions as a pre-booked transfer rather than a public bus line.
Official visitor guidance states there is no public road transportation from the airport; taxis exist in Stanley itself but may offer only limited service — do not plan to simply hail one at the terminal.
Not confirmed at the airport itself; rental agencies are based in Stanley and typically prohibit off-road driving.
Pre-arrange your transfer through your accommodation or tour operator before arrival — independent travellers are explicitly told to do this by the official tourism site, since there is no transport infrastructure to fall back on at the terminal.
