Luis Munoz Marin International Airport (SJU)

Getting Around

How to get to and from Luis Munoz Marin International Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.

Transport Options at SJU

Luis Munoz Marin International Airport is connected to San Juan and the wider Puerto Rico transport network by multiple ground transport options.

Bus & Shuttle

Puerto Rico's public bus system (AMA) has limited routes near the airport, but it isn't a practical option for most travelers with luggage — taxi and rideshare cover this trip far better.

Taxi

Official "taxi turístico" (tourist taxi) service posts fixed, government-set flat rates by destination zone (Old San Juan, Condado, Isla Verde, etc.) right at the taxi booth, which avoids any metering disputes.

Rideshare

Uber operates throughout the San Juan area and is commonly used from the airport.

Car Rental

Extensive — all the major international chains have counters on-site, useful if you're planning to explore beyond San Juan.

Insider tip

Use the official taxi turístico booth for a posted flat rate by zone rather than negotiating with a driver — it's simple, transparent, and avoids the classic tourist overcharge.

Transport routes, fares and operators change frequently. Verify current options on the official Luis Munoz Marin International Airport website before travel.

Only use official taxi ranks or pre-booked apps at Luis Munoz Marin International Airport. Avoid unofficial drivers approaching you in arrivals.
If a rail or metro connection exists, it is usually the fastest and most reliable option during rush hour.
