Kingston Airport Transfers

Jamaica's Kingston Airport (KIN) provides several modes of efficient transportation for its customers.

Services to/from KIN, including rental cars, taxis, shuttles, and buses are available in front of the airport terminal building.

Kingston, which is about 19 kilometers from the airport, was founded in 1693 after the earthquake devastated Port Royal in 1692.

The quickest way to get from the Airport to downtown Kingston is by taxi, which costs less than US$ 30.00.

Kingston Airport is served by multiple major international airlines with daily service to and from destinations all over the world.

Amenities include ample dining choices, duty-free and souvenir shopping, and facilities like restrooms, ATMs, and many more.

The official currency of Jamaica is the Jamaican dollar or J$, but US dollars are also widely accepted.

In the foreign currency market, the most common Jamaican dollar exchange is the USD/JMD rate, which, as of this update, stands at 1.00 USD = 156.00 JMD.

If you'll be visiting places outside of the tourist centers, you'll want to take Jamaican dollars. In big resort areas, you can usually get by with US dollars.

All airport gates are in a single terminal building.

Planning your transfer options before hitting the road will give you peace of mind in Jamaica.

Before leaving your home, know what items are allowed in your carry-on bag, what you can pack in your checked baggage, and what items are prohibited.

Finally, travelers should only transact at the airport counters and other legitimate establishments for their safety.

Rental Car Services at Kingston Airport

When ready to return your vehicle to the car rental center, remove all personal items before turning over the rented vehicle to the designated facility.

Allow plenty of time for your drive when returning the vehicle. If you’re not sure where to go, give the rental company a call. See all rental car companies at Kingston Airport.

When renting a vehicle, customers must abide by the Terms and Conditions of the rental company at all times.
