When we pick you up in Portillo

We work backwards from your flight: 2.5 hours before departure for an international flight, plus the 30–40 min drive. El Catey is a small airport so check-in and security are quick, but the road is the variable — early morning runs are faster than late afternoon.

Resort gate and lobby pickup

The resort gate for the all-inclusive, or the condo entrance and villa door for private rentals.

Luggage and bigger groups

Luggage travels inside the vehicle, not on a roof rack. If you have surfboards, golf bags, a wheelchair or more than one large case per person, tell us when you book so the right vehicle is sent.

7–14 passengers ride in a passenger van: +$20 on Standard, +$40 on VIP for this zone.

Night and early-morning departures

Pre-dawn pickups are common here because of the morning departure bank at AZS, and the price does not change for the hour. We confirm the pickup time in writing the day before.
