Thanks. To clarify, you say a taxi all the way from PE Airport (picked up on the highway 200) to Mazunte will only be 150 pesos? That seems ridiculously cheap for an hour-long trip. Bus tickets on ADO are 70-110 Pesos a person . . . ..

Nope from PE airport will be approx 500 Pesos (understand that taxis inside the airport will be double of those outside the airport) The 150 Pesos is from the highway junction of main highway 200 and secondary highway 175 about 20 minutes from Mazunte. (or from Pochutla which is farther east than the junction) Might be worth looking at Google maps.

I did ... but my husband is a nervous flyer and friends who do that route fairly regularly suggested choosing a different airline.

Well, I'm not sure what you are referring to, but they are a legitimate airline flying modern aircraft. You can get some amazingly low fares if you carefully navigate their website. I have flown several times with them so I can't imagine what your friends are talking about that they would make you nervous to fly with them.

I am here in Puerto Escondido now. It is probably a couple hundred yards from the small airport terminal building, down to the airport entrance on the highway where the (non-airport) taxis are lined up. There is a nice wide sidewalk, but certainly no shade.
I am planning on taking the ADO bus on Monday to Pochutla for the market as I would prefer a comfortable bus ride vs. a 4 door subcompact car (even for just an hour). Also I think you are going to find that the taxi rates have changed. I will try to ask a driver or 2 tomorrow.and post back.
¡Diviértanse!

That would be amazing, thank you! Obviously taxi is more convenient but we are not in a rush and the trip isn’t far.

Thanks @46jimbo. I am sure they are a legitimate airline; not a safety concern but more around service. No matter as we have already booked flights to PE.
