Survival guide: finding your driver at PUJ
The “Shark Tank” is the hallway between Customs and the exit where vendors try to sell timeshares or illegal rides. Ignore them.

PUJ Airport Survival Guide: How to find your driver at Terminal A & B
Landing at Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) is the start of your dream vacation, but for many, the arrival process can feel overwhelming. Between the heat, the crowds, and the “Shark Tank” of unauthorized vendors, you need a plan.
This guide ensures you navigate PUJ like a pro and find your CanaTransfers driver without the stress.
Know your terminal (A or B?)
Punta Cana Airport has two main terminals. While they look similar, the meeting points are different:
- Terminal A: Generally handles European and some North American flights (e.g., Delta, JetBlue, Sunwing).
- Terminal B: The newer, modern terminal used largely by American Airlines, United, Southwest, and Air Canada.
Pro Tip: Check your boarding pass or the CanaTransfers WhatsApp message you received—we track your flight and will tell you exactly which terminal we are waiting in.
Navigating the “Shark Tank”
After you clear Immigration and pick up your luggage, you will pass through a hallway filled with people offering “cheap taxis,” timeshares, or excursions. In the industry, we call this the “Shark Tank.”
- The High-Pressure Zone: These vendors can be very aggressive, sometimes even trying to grab your bags or telling you your pre-booked driver isn’t coming.
- The Survival Strategy: Do not stop. Keep walking straight toward the Pre-Booked Transportation Exit. Simply smile, say “No, thank you, I have a private driver,” and keep moving.
Where is ny CanaTransfers driver?
Terminal A meeting point
Once you exit the glass doors into the fresh air, look for the “Pre-booked/Tour Operator” area. Your driver will be standing in the designated waiting zone holding a CanaTransfers digital tablet or a professional sign with your name.
Terminal B meeting point
Terminal B is more organized but can be busier. Exit the customs area and follow the signs to Transport/Taxi. Look for our uniformed driver near the Cafeteria/Meeting area. We stay away from the chaotic taxi lines to ensure a calm greeting.
The CanaTransfers “Contact Protocol”
To ensure you never feel “stranded,” we follow a strict communication plan:
- Before takeoff: You’ll receive a WhatsApp message from your personal concierge.
- Upon landing: Once you turn on your phone, you’ll have a message with your driver’s name and live location.
- Visual confirmation: Our drivers wear professional uniforms and use high-visibility branding. No handwritten cardboard signs—only professional tablets.
Quick tips for a smooth arrival
Stay connected: Use the airport’s free Wi-Fi to send us a quick message once you clear Customs.
Currency: You do not need Dominican Pesos at the airport. At CanaTransfers, your ride is pre-paid or payable via secure digital methods, so you can skip the expensive airport currency exchanges.
Hydrate: The humidity will hit you the moment you exit. If you booked our VIP Welcome, your driver will have ice-cold water (and beer!) waiting for you in a pre-cooled vehicle.
