Tips for getting to and from PSO
Going to the airport
- Leave earlier than you think you need to: San Juan de Pasto airport is 27 km from San Juan de Pasto. Allow for rush-hour traffic, strikes or events, and check the local news before you go.
- On public transportation, check the schedule (weekends and holidays usually have fewer services), whether you need to change lines and how to pay: transit card, contactless or cash.
- If you booked a shared shuttle, keep the company's phone number at hand in case the pickup is late.
- Returning a rental car? Follow the signs to the rental car return area. If you drive your own car, check parking at PSO.
Leaving the airport
- After baggage claim and customs, follow the ground transportation signs. The arrivals page has a step-by-step guide.
- Arriving late at night? Not every bus or train runs 24 hours: check the last departure in advance. Ride-hailing apps usually pick up at a designated zone, not at the curb.
- With a private transfer, the driver usually waits in the arrivals hall with a sign with your name.
- Renting a car? Booking ahead gives you better rates; see car rental at PSO.
- Staying near the airport? See hotels and overnight stay or hotels near PSO.
