Transportation to Havana City Center from Airport
Jose Marti Intl. Airport
Transportation is provided by taxi, bus, and trains in Havana, which is Cuba's window to the word, the country which had long been a closed book. Unfortunately, those transportation vehicles cannot promise comfort because they fall behind modern technology. The trains that serve with 12 lines in the city center are the most basic means of transportation in Havana.
Once you arrive in the city, you can see that smoke of exhaust and cigarette and the noise are surprisingly much. Havana promises you a unique experience with its colorful buildings lined on its streets, street artists performing music and the world-renowned cigars. Jose Marti Airport, which serves international flights, is located in an area that can be considered as the center of Havana. It is possible to reach the city center by bus and train from the airport which is 14 kilometers away from the center.
Those who want a more comfortable and practical journey can take advantage of transfer vehicles, car rental or taxi options.
Taxi
You can prefer to go to the city center by taxi alone in Havana, as well as you can take a taxi together with some of other tourists to travel at more affordable prices. Taxis in Havana differ compared to the usual taxis in other countries.
You can feel yourself as if you are making a historic journey thanks to the old models from 70s and 80s. These taxis provide a very enjoyable journey, even if they are far from being comfortable. You can get to the city center from the airport in about 20 or 30 minutes by taking a taxi.
Bus
If you want to travel by bus to reach the city center, you should be ready for a tiresome journey. Although there is no bus stop at Terminal 3, which serves international flights, small buses that can be called minibuses serve for transportation purposes at Terminal 1. There are free transfer buses at the airport to travel between these two terminals.
Since the bus fare payments are made in Peso in Cuba, you are strongly advised to change sufficient amount of money into Peso before you leave the terminal building. It takes about one hour to reach the city center by taking the advantage of bus option.
Train
You can also prefer to get to the city center by the trains departing from Terminal 1 building of the airport. Considering that Terminal 3 serves only international passengers, it would be a good idea to take advantage of free transfer buses at the airport to reach Terminal 1.
Train line 2 runs between the city center and Bejuca. If you take this train at the airport, you need to pass 14 stations until you get to the city center. This journey takes about 40 minutes because the trains are slower than metro lines.
Transfer Vehicles
Before heading out to Havana, you can contact the hotel you are going to stay or one of the transfer companies in the city and you can take advantage of a comfortable transfer vehicle for your journey from the airport for a certain amount of fee. Although this way of transportation is more costly compared to taking a taxi, it promises you a more comfortable journey.
Rent a car
You can also get to the city center by car you can rent from the offices of the car rental companies in the parking areas outside the airport. Cubacar, Rex, Havanautos and Via Transgaviota are among the companies you can get this service. The offices of these companies are right outside Terminal 3 building, which serves international flights. Sometimes it may be difficult to find a rental car because of the high demand during dense seasons.
