Your arrival service provides private transportation from Punta Cana International Airport to Riu Republica, while your departure service takes you from the hotel back to PUJ.

Keeping your confirmation and contact information accessible is useful, particularly when several international flights arrive at approximately the same time and the arrivals area becomes busy.
What happens to my Riu Republica transfer if my flight is delayed?
Your flight number is an important part of your Riu Republica Airport Transportation reservation because it connects your scheduled airport pickup with your arriving flight. Flight delays are common in international travel, so always provide the correct flight number when booking. If your airline changes the flight number, arrival date, or itinerary, contact VIP Transfer Punta Cana with the updated information as soon as possible. Accurate flight details help us coordinate your pickup correctly and avoid confusion between your original scheduled arrival and your actual arrival at Punta Cana International Airport.
How far in advance should I book transportation to Riu Republica?
VIP Transfer Punta Cana accepts online reservations at least six hours before the requested service, subject to vehicle availability. However, we recommend reserving your transportation to Riu Republica earlier when possible, particularly if you want a specific vehicle such as a Chevrolet Tahoe or Chevrolet Suburban, are traveling with a large group, or require child seats. Advance booking also gives you time to verify your passenger count, luggage, hotel information and flight details before traveling rather than arranging transportation after arriving at Punta Cana International Airport.
What vehicles are available for a Riu Republica Airport Transfer?
Several vehicle categories are available for a Riu Republica Airport Transfer, depending on your group size, luggage and preferred vehicle type. Options currently include Chevrolet Tahoe for up to three passengers, Chevrolet Suburban and Hyundai H1 for up to six, Toyota Hiace for up to eight, Mercedes Sprinter for up to fifteen, and Toyota Coaster for groups of up to twenty-two passengers. Vehicle luggage capacities also differ, so travelers should consider both passenger numbers and baggage when selecting transportation through the online booking system.
Can large groups book private transportation from PUJ to Riu Republica?
Yes. Private transportation from PUJ to Riu Republica is available for individual travelers, couples and larger groups. The Mercedes Sprinter accommodates up to 15 passengers with up to 14 suitcases, while the Toyota Coaster accommodates groups of up to 22 passengers with up to 20 suitcases. Keeping the entire party in one appropriately sized vehicle can be more convenient than dividing travelers among several smaller vehicles. When booking, count both passengers and luggage carefully to ensure that the selected vehicle has sufficient capacity for your group.
Are child seats available for transportation to Riu Republica?
Yes. Child seats can be added when booking private transportation to Riu Republica and currently cost US$5 per child seat, per way. Capacity depends on the selected vehicle: Tahoe, Suburban, Hyundai H1 and Toyota Hiace accommodate up to two child seats, while larger vehicles can accommodate additional seats. Request child seats during the booking process rather than waiting until airport arrival so the requirement is associated with your reservation and the appropriate vehicle arrangements can be made before your scheduled PUJ pickup.
How much luggage can I bring on a Riu Republica private transfer?
Luggage capacity for a Riu Republica private transfer depends on the vehicle you select. For example, the Chevrolet Tahoe accommodates up to five suitcases and four pieces of hand luggage, while the Chevrolet Suburban accommodates five suitcases and five pieces of hand luggage. Larger vehicles provide substantially greater capacity, including the Toyota Coaster with space for up to 20 suitcases and 15 pieces of hand luggage. Travelers should therefore choose their vehicle according to both passenger count and baggage rather than passenger capacity alone.
Why choose a private Riu Republica shuttle instead of a shared shuttle?
A private Riu Republica Punta Cana Airport Shuttle is reserved only for your party and travels directly between Punta Cana International Airport and the hotel. Shared transportation may require passengers to wait for other travelers and can include stops at multiple resorts before reaching the final destination. With private transportation, there are no scheduled hotel drop-offs for unrelated passengers. This provides a simpler journey for couples, families and groups, particularly after an international flight when travelers generally want to collect their luggage, meet their driver and continue directly to Riu Republica.

Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) is the principal airport used by international travelers visiting Riu Republica. The official RIU hotel information places the resort approximately 28 km from PUJ, with a typical drive of around 30–35 minutes depending on traffic. When booking Punta Cana Airport to Riu Republica transportation, make sure you select Punta Cana International Airport and provide the correct flight information.
