Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 21, 2025
Taxis

Official, authorized taxi services are the safest option and have counters inside the arrivals hall (both domestic and international). Companies include Taxi Green, Taxi 365, and Taxi Directo. They offer fixed rates and operate 24/7. Ride-sharing apps like Uber and Cabify are also available, with pick-up points typically located in the short-term parking area.

Rental Cars

Major international car rental agencies such as Hertz, Avis, Budget, and National have service desks located in the international arrivals hall. Pre-booking online is recommended for better rates and to ensure availability. Driving in Lima is known for being challenging due to heavy traffic.

Public Transportation

The 'Airport Express Lima' is the official bus service connecting the airport directly to popular districts like Miraflores and San Isidro. It's a safe and comfortable option with Wi-Fi onboard. While inexpensive local public buses ('combis' or 'micros') operate on the main avenue outside the airport, they are generally not recommended for tourists due to safety concerns and navigational difficulty. There is no direct train or metro connection from the airport.

Incorrect ident Posted by berk on April 13, 2024

The ident for this airport should be SPJC, not SPIM. Unfortunately the ident can not be edited by my own, hence leaving this comment here hoping someone with the edit privileges follows-up.

Fiedl 'ident' in CSV file uses old ICAO (SPIM) instead of ne Posted by espinielli on April 28, 2021

I am reporting that the CSV dump of the airport DB for the 'ident' field still uses the old ICAO, SPIM, instead of the new one, SPJC.
My understanding is that the 'ident' field is about ICAO code, from the Data dictionary page (https://ourairports.com/help/data-dictionary.html):

"The text identifier used in the OurAirports URL. This will be the ICAO code if available. Otherwise, it will be a local airport code (if no conflict), or if nothing else is available, an internally-generated code starting with the ISO2 country code, followed by a dash and a four-digit number."

Hello, I think that the new ICAO code is SPJC, can you change it in airport.csv ? :)

Please ignore the ATSA Arrivals/Departures question Posted by sengsational on April 1, 2020

My mistake. I see the flights now.

Why does ATSA not appear in the Arrivals/Departures? Posted by sengsational on April 1, 2020

The arrivals and departures include LATAM and many others, but not ATSA. Why not?

ICAO CODE OUTDATED Posted by FlyZone on March 14, 2016
