AIRPORT ARRIVAL GUIDE
How Your Private Transfer From SDQ Works
This page is organized around the questions travelers have immediately before and after landing at Santo Domingo Airport. The sequence below explains what to send, what you will receive and how to locate the confirmed pickup after customs.
For official live flight information, use the airport’s arrivals service. Santo Domingo Taxi monitors the flight information supplied with your reservation but does not operate the airport.
VIEW OFFICIAL SDQ ARRIVALS →Send Your Flight Details
Provide the airline, flight number, arrival date, passenger count, luggage and final destination. Include child-seat needs, mobility requirements or oversized equipment with the initial request.
Receive Written Confirmation
The reservations team reviews the route and sends the confirmed price, vehicle plan, payment information and arrival instructions in writing. A quote request is not a confirmed booking until those details are issued.
Complete Baggage Claim and Customs
After landing at SDQ, collect your luggage and complete the airport arrival formalities. Once you have cleared customs with your luggage, look for your driver, who will be holding a sign displaying your name.
Meet Your Driver
Use the exact meeting directions in your confirmation. Your private vehicle then travels directly to the confirmed destination without scheduled shared-shuttle stops.
