Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are available outside the arrivals terminal. It is highly recommended to agree on the fare with the driver before starting your journey, as meters are not typically used. Ride-sharing services like Uber are also a common and available option for pickups and drop-offs.

Rental Cars

Several international car rental agencies, such as Hertz, Thrifty, and Dollar, have counters located inside the airport terminal. Booking a vehicle in advance is recommended to ensure availability and secure better rates, especially during peak travel times.

Public Transportation

Direct public transit connections are limited. The main option is the Metro Bus system, which can be accessed by walking from the terminal to the nearby Pan-American Highway. This option is not ideal for those with heavy luggage. A rechargeable 'Metro' or 'Rapi-Pass' card is required to pay the fare. There is no direct metro train service to the airport.

Reply to @ptomblin: It is "Panama Pacifico"; I'm sure 100% because just on this month.... I'm flying daily in this airport. Actually I don't know how we could update the name in this website. Ciao ciao.

Reply to @antongervax: Is it "Howard Airport", or is it "Panama Pacifico" as my Eurocontrol data has it?
