Authorized airport taxis are readily available. Passengers purchase a pre-paid ticket from an official booth inside the arrivals terminal. Fares are fixed based on a zone system to destinations like downtown Tuxtla Gutiérrez or San Cristóbal de las Casas. This is the most common and regulated option.
Several major car rental companies have service desks within the airport's arrivals hall. Agencies include Hertz, Avis, Europcar, National, and Alamo. It is advisable to book your vehicle in advance, especially during peak travel seasons, to ensure availability and better rates.
Shared vans, or 'colectivos,' are a popular and cost-effective option. They provide service to both Tuxtla Gutiérrez and the popular tourist destination of San Cristóbal de las Casas. Additionally, first-class bus lines like ADO operate direct routes from the airport to the main bus terminals in both cities.
This airport opened in May 2006, replacing Francisco Sarabia National Airport for scheduled airline service into Tuxtla Gutiérrez in Chiapas. It took over the ICAO and IATA identifiers from Francisco Sarabia at that time.
