Tegucigalpa - ToncontÃn Intl (TGU):
Location: 5 km/3 miles SSW of the City.
By Taxi: To the city ~US$8 upwards/15-25 mins. The Airport Taxi Company has a set price of HNL 140(~US $7.50) to anywhere in the city. Cheaper taxis pass by on the main road in front of the airport, but one has to haggle the price in Spanish because there are no taxi meters.
By Bus: Many buses going to Lomas pass the airport, including Bus#24. Cost HNL 3.50/30-35 mins. Citybuses are not allowed in the centre of Tegucigalpa, and so many leave from the town of Comayaguela S of the city. Transfer time from there to the airport is ~20 mins. However, taxis are a much safer option for foreigners.
