Palmerola International Airport (XPL), outside Comayagua, has become the main gateway for a lot of international flights into Honduras — which means more travelers now land hours away from the coast, not next to it.

The gap Palmerola doesn’t solve

Unlike San Pedro Sula, Palmerola isn’t a short hop from La Ceiba or the ferry docks. If you’re headed to Roatán or Utila, you still have real ground distance to cover before you’re anywhere near a boat — and the Bay Islands ferries don’t wait for a late arrival.

A direct transfer, not a patchwork of connections

Our direct transfer from Palmerola (XPL) to La Ceiba covers that entire gap in one ride — $350 for 1 to 5 passengers in a new 2022/2023 Toyota Hiace van, with a rest stop and breakfast built in before you continue to the ferry dock. No changing vehicles, no coordinating a second driver once you land.

Timed for the boat, not just the destination

The point of the transfer isn’t just reaching La Ceiba — it’s reaching La Ceiba with enough time to make your ferry. We build the schedule around the Roatán and Utila sailing times, so landing at Palmerola doesn’t turn into an unplanned night on the mainland.

The bottom line

Palmerola is a convenient airport to fly into, but only if the transfer from there is actually planned around your onward trip. Message us on WhatsApp with your flight details and we’ll time your transfer to get you to the dock, not just to the city.
