Miami International Airport (MIA) to Punta Cana (PUJ): Arrival and Hotel Transfer Guide

Flying from Miami International Airport (MIA) to Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ)? Plan the last part of the journey before you leave Florida: the ride from PUJ arrivals to your hotel. Your reservation should match your actual arrival date, flight number, party size and hotel entrance.

Miami to Punta Cana: check the airport code first

Miami International Airport is MIA. Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport is FLL, a different South Florida airport. Use the airport and flight number on your ticket when arranging a transfer. If you connect through another airport, provide the final flight landing at PUJ, rather than the first flight leaving Miami.

American Airlines lists Miami–Punta Cana itineraries. The official Punta Cana flight board also lists Miami arrivals. Check your airline for your travel date, stops and schedule; a route listing does not guarantee a particular departure every day. Sources checked November 9, 2026.

Choose your hotel and check your transfer

Enter Punta Cana International Airport as pickup and your exact hotel as drop-off in the booking form. Select the local arrival date and time shown on your itinerary, then add every passenger and suitcase. Hotels with similar names can have different entrances, so confirm the full property name before continuing.

Open the airport transfer booking page to see the available options. Review the vehicle, route, displayed price and booking terms before confirming. This guide does not quote a fixed fare for every hotel.

Your arrival plan at PUJ

Allow time for immigration, baggage collection and customs before meeting your driver. Follow the meeting instructions supplied with your reservation and keep them available offline. See our PUJ arrivals driver meeting guide for what to check before walking outside.

Do not guess your terminal or assume a fixed meeting point from an older trip. Check your current flight details and reservation instructions. If your flight changes, send the updated final flight number and landing information to the contact shown on your booking.

Traveling with children or extra luggage?

Request the appropriate child restraint before travel and confirm availability for your party. Read our car-seat planning guide. Include large bags, strollers and special luggage when choosing a vehicle; passenger capacity alone does not establish that everything will fit.

Arriving for Christmas

For a December visit, make your transport plans once you know your flights and hotel. Keep your arrival transfer and hotel-to-airport return details together, and verify the local date on both legs. Advance planning helps avoid trying to organize the ride while managing luggage after landing; it is not a guarantee of vehicle availability.

Dated airline and flight-number examples

These are examples from that dated board, not a future timetable or a complete airline list. Airline labels follow the board; operating-carrier and codeshare relationships have not been independently established.
