Hello, fellow Puerto Rican travelers. We'd appreciate any info you might have about the availability of taxis from the airport in San Juan to our hotel in Condado. We're arriving this coming Saturday evening. . .7:35PM. We've sent an e-mail to a Cab Service obtained from another Fodorite post, but have received no response. We just don't want to be stuck at the airport on Saturday evening. We'd be grateful to anyone who is familiar with the Saturday evening taxi situation. Thanks so much!

There are ALWAYS plenty of taxis waiting at the airport - when you exit the terminal go to the taxi stand (it's right near the exit door) and tell the dispatcher where you want to go. He/she will hail a taxi for you, give you a "trip ticket" showing your destination and the fare that is set by regulation and tell the driver where to drop you off. It's a real easy process.

RoamsAround, thanks so much for your prompt, helpful reply. Your directions are very clear! We'll no longer be concerned about our airport transport for Saturday evening.

It's not a personalized ticket, it's a schedule showing prices to/from different destinations.

If checking in luggage, keep the receipts - they check if you took the correct suitcase when you exit the airport. This was something new for us.

Dayenu, thanks for the added detail! We'll be sure to hang on to our luggage receipts.
