Where to find a taxi in Antigua Airport?
The official Antigua Airport taxi rank can be found right outside the main terminal building. As you exit the Arrivals Hall, cross the road and you’ll find a line of taxis waiting, next to a handful of taxi desks where you’ll be handed a slip with the price of your journey.
The wait times for taxis are usually less than 10 minutes, but if you arrive during the busy holiday period when flights are arriving one after the other, you could be standing around for 15-20 minutes.
A great way to ensure a driver is ready for you on arrival is to pre-book your ride with Welcome Pickups. You’ll be met in the Arrivals Hall and be taken straight to your private, air-conditioned vehicle.
