San Ignacio to Belize City Airport Shuttle: Shared Ride with WiFi

Modern Mercedes and Toyota vans with complimentary water and WiFi for the drive to the airport.

A shared shuttle service runs daily from San Ignacio Town to Belize City International Airport, departing from Hodes Place on a fixed schedule with stops at 7:30am, 9:00am, 10:00am, 12:00pm and 2:15pm. The van is air-conditioned, carries bottled water and WiFi onboard, and the journey takes roughly two hours depending on traffic. Hotel drop-off within or outside town limits is available for an additional fee.

The experience

The shuttle departs from Hodes Place in San Ignacio and heads east on the Western Highway toward Philip S.W. Goldson International Airport. Departures run at 7:30am, 9:00am, 10:00am, 12:00pm and 2:15pm, so you can pick the slot that fits your flight time. The operator asks that you arrive at the airport at least two hours before departure. If your flight is early, the 7:30am or 9:00am slot gives you the buffer you need. The van is a 2019 Mercedes Benz Sprinter or 2024 Toyota Hiace, both air-conditioned, and the ride includes bottled water and onboard WiFi so you can stay connected or rest on the way.

This is a shared shuttle, which means other passengers may board at the same time or at stops along the route before reaching the airport. The journey takes roughly two hours, though traffic and time of day can shift that window. If you need a different drop-off (the water taxi terminal or Sir Barry Bowen Municipal Airport in Belize City instead of the international airport), those are available for an added fee. Contact the operator after booking to arrange it. Each traveler can bring one suitcase and one carry-on bag. Oversized luggage like surfboards or bikes may have restrictions, so confirm with the operator before your travel date if you're carrying anything beyond standard baggage.

Hotel pickup within or outside San Ignacio town limits is optional and costs extra. If you're staying in town and uncertain whether to add it, book the standard Hodes Place pickup and reach out to upgrade later. Infants must sit on an adult's lap, and children need to travel with an adult. The operator will send updates via email or text if schedules change.
