Authorized airport taxis are readily available outside the arrivals hall. These services offer fixed, pre-established fares to different zones in Bucaramanga and the surrounding areas. It is highly recommended to use these official taxis for safety and fair pricing. The journey to downtown Bucaramanga typically takes around 45-60 minutes, depending on traffic.
Several car rental agencies have desks inside the airport terminal, located in the arrivals area. Companies such as Avis, Hertz, Localiza, and National offer a range of vehicles. It is advisable to book your car in advance, especially during peak travel seasons, to ensure availability and secure better rates.
Public buses (busetas) provide the most economical connection between Palonegro Airport and Bucaramanga. These buses depart from just outside the terminal building and run frequently throughout the day. The route typically ends in downtown Bucaramanga, making stops along the way. This is a convenient option for budget-conscious travelers.
