Need transportation from POP to POP airport (Puerto Plata Gregorio Luperon International Airport)
So you are traveling from POP to POP?Need transportation from POP to POP airport (Puerto Plata Gregorio Luperon International Airport)
Not everyone wishes to have someone sit on their lap for 50 pesos. Not everyone going to the airport has only a small carry-on satchel. The people in the trunk of a publico won't be to keen to share their space with a suitcase or two.
From downtown POP to the airport, I'd use Uber. No potential disagreement on the fare, no need to negotiate a fare, a relatively safe vehicle and it's all mine just for me and my things.
A tourist taxi will cost much more than Uber. A local dedicated taxi is pretty much a hit & miss affair as to whether the brakes, doors, or A/C will work.
To each their own based on their means and expectations.
