Punta Cana Airport Transfers (PUJ)
A Punta Cana Airport transfer with us is a private, pre-booked trip from PUJ to your resort, villa or address. The vehicle carries your party only, your chauffeur meets you at the confirmed meeting point with your name displayed, and the pickup is tied to the flight number on your booking, so it moves with your flight.
There is no shuttle to fill and no other hotels on the way: you leave when your party and luggage are in the vehicle matched to your booking. Trips during the stay use the same service, covered on transportation in Punta Cana, and if you would rather not queue at immigration, VIP Fast Track at PUJ can be added to the same arrival. Travelers rank Transekur #1 for transportation in the Dominican Republic on Tripadvisor.

| What happens | Airport taxi | Shared shuttle | Transekur private transfer | Transekur private + VIP Fast Track |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Who meets you on arrival | Nobody is assigned to you — you join the rank yourself. | An operator representative, once you reach their desk or bay. | Your chauffeur, waiting outside arrivals with your name displayed — at Terminal B, our airport representative at the Transekur counter. | A uniformed airport escort assigned to your flight, then your named chauffeur at the door. |
| Where you meet them | At the taxi rank outside the terminal. | At the operator's desk or a shuttle bay. Varies by operator. | Terminal A: the meet-and-greet area outside the arrivals exit. Terminal B: the Transekur counter in the tour-operator counter area. Your confirmation says which. | Inside the terminal, before the immigration queue. |
| Immigration and customs | You clear the standard queues on your own. | You clear the standard queues on your own. | The standard PUJ immigration hall, which fills when several wide-body flights land in the same hour; your chauffeur waits on the other side. | Your escort uses the priority immigration lane instead of that hall. |
| Waiting time after landing | Depends on the queue at the rank when you walk out. Varies by operator. | The vehicle leaves when it is full or at a fixed departure time. Varies by operator. | The vehicle is already there; you leave when your party is ready. | Same, with the immigration step handled first rather than queued. |
| Flight delay handling | Nobody is tracking your flight. | A missed departure usually means the next scheduled one. Varies by operator. | We monitor your inbound flight and move the pickup to the actual landing time. | Same monitoring; the escort is assigned to the flight, not to a clock. |
| Vehicle type and who else rides in it | Whichever vehicle is next in the rank; your party only. | A van or coach shared with travellers from other flights. | The class you reserved, exclusively yours — no shared rides. | The same exclusive vehicle; Fast Track changes the terminal, not the car. |
| Luggage and child seats | Capacity is whatever that vehicle has; child seats varies by operator. | Luggage limits and child seats varies by operator. | Vehicle matched to your luggage count; child seats requested when you book. | Same, with the escort alongside you through baggage claim. |
| Stops on the way | Direct unless you ask for a stop. | Other hotels are served before yours. Varies by operator. | Direct to your address; extra stops are arranged when you book. | Direct to your address. |
| How you pay and when | With the driver on arrival, metered or agreed at the rank. Varies by operator. | At the desk or in advance through a reseller. Varies by operator. | One fixed quote confirmed and paid online before you travel. | Added to the same reservation and paid with it — nothing settled at the airport. |
Taxi and shuttle details are general and vary by operator; the Transekur columns describe our own published service.

How your Punta Cana Airport pickup works
You give us the flight number and the address. We confirm the meeting point before you travel and monitor the flight, and your chauffeur is waiting with your name displayed when you walk out with your bags.
Where you meet your chauffeur at PUJ
At Terminal A, as at every other Dominican airport we serve, you collect your bags, clear customs and walk out to the meet-and-greet area outside the arrivals exit, where your chauffeur is waiting with your name displayed. At Terminal B, our airport representative is at the Transekur counter in the tour-operator counter area you pass after customs, and walks you to the vehicle. Your confirmation says which applies to your flight.
With VIP Fast Track, an airport escort meets you before immigration instead, takes you through the priority lane and brings you to your chauffeur. The standard hall fills when several wide-body flights land in the same hour; our field guide to immigration and customs lines at Punta Cana Airport explains what to expect.
If your flight changes or lands late
As long as you stay on the same airline and flight number, there is nothing to do: we monitor the flight and move the pickup with it, whether it lands late, early or is diverted. Waiting is free for up to 2 hours after landing on every airport pickup, and night arrivals follow the same procedure — we operate around the clock.
If the airline rebooks you onto a different flight, or you change airline, send the new flight number in writing through the chat on this website or by email, or call us, before your chauffeur leaves for the airport. Tell us about a missed connection the same way, and we reschedule the pickup around the new arrival wherever the fleet allows.
Areas served from Punta Cana Airport
From PUJ we drive to the whole east coast: Bávaro and the main resort strip, Cap Cana and its marina, Uvero Alto on the northern coast, Miches further east, Punta Cana Village and the town, plus La Romana, Bayahibe and Casa de Campo. Each area page explains how that arrival differs.
If your flight lands elsewhere, Santo Domingo (SDQ) and La Romana (LRM) both reach the Punta Cana area as one direct private trip; tell us where the flight lands and we set the meeting point for that terminal. Our guide to the Dominican Republic's airports helps before you book the flight.
Choosing a vehicle for passengers and luggage
Vehicle class is set by party size and luggage at booking, not at the curb: a Small SUV for couples and small families, a Minivan or Full-Size SUV for a family with full luggage, a Mercedes Sprinter for larger groups and a Large Bus for full-group arrivals. Golf bags, strollers and oversized cases count as luggage, so declare them and the vehicle will fit.
Child seats are an add-on on the same booking; select them when you reserve. Group arrivals spread across several flights are coordinated as one booking with several vehicles meeting the different flights.
What a Transekur pickup includes
Every airport pickup and every return trip includes cold bottled water, soft drinks, Wi-Fi and USB charging in the vehicle, help with your luggage from the meeting point to the door, and a bilingual professional chauffeur who drives you straight to your address. The quote is fixed and paid online before you travel, so there is nothing to settle with the driver.
Dispatch is reachable around the clock through the website chat, by phone, by email or by SMS, before the trip and while you are on the road.
What changes the quoted rate
The quote depends on what you enter when you book: the destination, the vehicle class your party and luggage need, and any additions such as child seats, an extra stop or VIP Fast Track. It is confirmed and paid online before you travel — book online or use the quote form on this page.

Punta Cana Airport (PUJ) — questions
- How do I get transportation from Punta Cana Airport (PUJ) to my hotel?
- Book a private transfer before you fly, as soon as your flight is ticketed. You give us the flight number and the hotel or address, we confirm the meeting point, and your chauffeur drives you straight to that entrance with no other stops on the way.
- Is a Punta Cana Airport transfer private or shared?
- Private. The vehicle carries your party only, leaves when you are ready and makes no stops at other hotels; extra stops happen only if you asked for them when you booked.
- Where do I meet my driver at Punta Cana Airport?
- Terminal A: outside the arrivals exit, in the meet-and-greet area, where your chauffeur waits with your name displayed after you clear customs. Terminal B: at the Transekur counter in the tour-operator counter area, where our airport representative walks you to the vehicle. Your confirmation says which applies.
- What happens if my flight to PUJ is delayed or changed?
- If you stay on the same flight, nothing: we track it and move the pickup with it, with up to 2 hours of free waiting after landing. If the airline moves you to a different flight, send us the new flight number through the website chat, by email or by phone before the chauffeur leaves for the airport.
- Which vehicle should I book for a family or a lot of luggage, and can I add child seats?
- A Minivan or Full-Size SUV carries a family with full luggage; larger groups travel in a Mercedes Sprinter or Large Bus. Count golf bags and strollers as luggage when you book. Child seats are an add-on on the same booking — select them when you reserve.
- Can I add VIP Fast Track to a Punta Cana Airport transfer?
- Yes. Fast Track is added to the same reservation: an airport escort meets you before immigration, takes you through the priority lane and brings you to your chauffeur at the door. The vehicle does not change.
- Do you also handle the return trip to the airport?
- Yes. Departures are booked the same way, with the pickup time set against your flight. Your chauffeur is at your resort or address at the confirmed time and waits up to 20 minutes, so have your luggage at the entrance.
