Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 22, 2025
Taxis

Official licensed airport taxis are readily available. Desks for authorized taxi associations like JUTA and MAXI are located in the Arrivals Hall after you exit customs. It is strongly recommended to use only these official providers. Fares to major destinations are often set, but you should always confirm the price with the dispatcher or driver before starting your trip.

Rental Cars

Several international and local car rental companies have desks within the Arrivals Hall. Major providers include Avis, Budget, Hertz, and Island Car Rentals. Pre-booking your vehicle is highly recommended, especially during peak season. Be aware that driving in Jamaica is on the left-hand side of the road.

Public Transportation

There is no direct public city bus service from the airport terminal. The most common form of shared transit for tourists are pre-booked shuttle buses operated by companies like Knutsford Express or by specific hotels and resorts. These services provide reliable transportation to major towns and tourist areas across the island. Local route taxis and public buses can be found on the main roads outside the airport but are generally not recommended for first-time visitors with luggage.
