Uber Now Available at Santo Domingo (SDQ)

Uber is now available for travellers arriving in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

A new designated pickup area just outside the terminal with signage directing visitors to it, is now in place at Las Américas International Airport.

Users using the Uber app will now find two dedicated pickup points: one for Uber Select and another for standard Uber services like Comfort and UberXL.

“We want every traveller’s first experience in the Dominican Republic to be simple and welcoming. By improving signage and increasing mobility options right at the airport, we’re making it easier to move confidently from the moment you land.”, said Laura Santillán, Uber’s General Manager for Central America and the Caribbean. 

“The changes reflect growing demand for rideshare services across Latin America, where travellers increasingly rely on services like Uber to move between airports, hotels, beaches, and city centers”, continued Santillán.

Uber also partnered with a local tourist taxi company, affiliated taxi drivers are now able to register under the Uber Select category. The Uber app is available in Punta Cana and other parts of the Dominican Republic.
