PVR

Licenciado Gustavo Díaz Ordaz International Airport

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Where to start
Authorized airport transport desk or a pre-booked transfer

Authorized ground-transportation companies have desks inside the terminal arrivals area — use one of those, or a transfer booked in advance. Uber serves PVR, but the airport does not publish a stable curb for it, so request after landing and follow the app. The arrivals area also holds timeshare desks, so know your transfer company's name before you walk out.

Local Tips

  • Authorized ground-transportation companies have desks inside the terminal arrivals area.
  • Know your hotel or transfer provider's name before leaving baggage claim.
  • Timeshare desks operate legitimately in arrivals — they are not your transport.
  • Uber pickup is app-directed; do not rely on an old pedestrian-bridge tip.

Tarmyq local tip

Know the exact name of your hotel or transfer provider before you leave baggage claim. The arrivals area holds tourism and timeshare desks alongside the transport desks, and not everyone approaching you represents your ride.
