Questions before you book
How much is a private Tocumen Airport transfer?+
Our Standard one-way planning estimate to central Panama City is USD 35; Casco Viejo is USD 35. Prices are per vehicle for up to three passengers, subject to luggage. The exact address, date and vehicle determine your written fare.
How long is PTY to Panama City?+
Plan approximately 30–60 minutes of road travel to the central financial district or 35–70 minutes to Casco Viejo. Airport formalities and baggage collection are additional. Traffic, rain and events can extend these windows.
Where do I meet my driver at Tocumen Airport?+
Use the Terminal 1 or Terminal 2 meeting instructions in your written confirmation after baggage and customs. There is no universal meeting door for every private service. Contact the confirmed provider if the terminal changes or your exit is delayed.
Is PTY Airport Transfer the official airport website?+
No. PTY Airport Transfer is an independent enquiry brand operated by A&M Caribbean Group SRL, based in the Dominican Republic. We are not Tocumen S.A. and do not claim an airport desk, a Panama transport licence or ownership of a local fleet. The actual provider is identified before booking confirmation.
Does submitting the form confirm my transfer?+
No. The form requests a quote. A reservation requires written confirmation of the provider, route, vehicle, full fare, waiting terms and pickup instructions. No card payment is collected here.
Are Playa Bonita and Playa Blanca the same destination?+
No. Playa Bonita is across the canal near Veracruz, with a 50–90-minute PTY road planning window. Playa Blanca is in Río Hato, Coclé, about 2 hours 15 minutes to 3 hours 45 minutes from PTY by road. Confirm the complete resort name.
Does the airport Metro go directly to my hotel?+
The airport branch connects with Line 2 at Corredor Sur. Central journeys can require a change to Line 1 at San Miguelito and an onward walk or road ride. Check the Metro operator’s current map, hours and payment information.
Can I request child seats or a group van?+
Yes. Include every passenger, each child’s age and size, and all luggage. Seat type and vehicle availability need explicit confirmation. The Standard estimate covers up to three travellers and premium up to two, subject to luggage; larger groups receive an individual quote.
Are Albrook, Panamá Pacífico and Tocumen the same airport?+
No. Tocumen is PTY; Marcos A. Gelabert at Albrook is PAC; Panamá Pacífico is BLB; Scarlett Martínez at Río Hato is RIH. Different airport codes require different road journeys.
