Punta Cana Airport - Much Admiration and a Little Warning
As you're arriving, real live Dominicans will pose for a photograph with you as you get off the plane. The bus and taxi parking lot is just outside. A taxi to most area resorts will run you between 10-50 dollars, depending upon your bargaining skills.
Don't forget you will have to pay a $20 US (or 700 peso) airport tax. Sorry Transat passengers, they don't accept your Canadian pesos, and it's best to come prepared. Likewise if you want to buy anything in the two terminals. There is a marked difference between the concrete and palm terminal which services Transat and discount flights to Europe and the gleaming marble and air-conditioned (where you can even find American icecream for sale) second one that has flights to the US.
