A calm airport with one hall of persistent selling.
They look like transport companies and they sell timeshare. The “free transportation” costs you a morning of your holiday.
To pick up inside SJD, GAP — the group that runs the airport — requires each vehicle’s registration, carrying the federal plates and the SICT permit, plus current insurance and several other requirements. Anything picking up outside the perimeter meets none of it and covers you for nothing.
Driver name, photo and plate are in MyTrip before you land. Only get into the vehicle whose plates we sent you.
There are no toll booths between the airport and either town. The transfer is prepaid; there is nothing to pay on the road.
Prices all over Los Cabos are quoted in dollars at a rate that favors the shop. Pay by card or carry pesos.
Picking up passengers inside a Mexican airport takes more than a car. The terminal is federal ground, and the airport authority asks for each vehicle's registration — which carries the federal plates and the SICT permit — plus current insurance and several other requirements. That is the filter the ride-hailing apps do not pass, and the reason the pirate operators work outside the perimeter. We hold that full file, and we are also registered with SECTUR Mexico.

Said about us, by name, right outside the exit doors. It is the opening line of a sale, not information. Your booking exists in MyTrip and in your WhatsApp confirmation, and nothing anyone tells you at the door changes it.
Nobody outside our own channels knows whether your driver is on the way. We do, and we tell you. If there were a delay you would hear it from IAN on WhatsApp, not from a stranger who happened to walk up to you.
The most convincing one, because it uses our name and then offers you a solution. We never hand your pickup to somebody who approaches you in the hall, and we never send anyone to tell you to take a taxi instead. The taxi is the whole point of the conversation.
Nobody from eTransfers will approach you inside the terminal. Our driver waits outside, behind the barrier, holding the eTransfers sign. If someone says our name inside the building, keep walking to the meeting point and message IAN.
Timeshare sales. They will offer a free ride, a map or a coupon in exchange for a “90-minute presentation”. Say “no thanks” once, keep walking. Your ride is already paid.
No insurance, prices that change on the highway, no accountability. Only get into the vehicle whose plates we sent you, or an official taxi from the counter inside.
Hall ATMs charge tourist rates. Bank ATMs after customs are fine. If a screen offers to charge you in dollars, choose local currency.
Rates 10 to 15 percent worse than a bank. Change a small amount for the first day or use a card.
Porters are fine and expect a small tip. People who grab your cart uninvited expect a large one. Keep your own cart.
Buy an eSIM before you fly or a prepaid SIM at an official carrier desk. Nothing from someone walking the hall.
A vest or a lanyard is not a credential. Our drivers carry a photo ID that matches the name and photo in your WhatsApp.
Tell IAN what happened and where. We report it to the airport authority and it helps the next traveler.
