Traveling from ABQ airport to the Hyatt Regency Albuquerque and other points downtown<\/span><\/p>\n

According to google maps, ABQ airport is located approximately 5 miles from the Hyatt Regency Albuquerque. A variety of ground transportation options can be found on the Albuquerque Official City Website<\/a>. Some of the options you may find yourself exploring are the Sunport Shuttle<\/strong>, taxis<\/strong>, and the bus<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The Sunport Shuttle<\/strong> travels between the airport and area hotels, residences, etc. and offers individual and group prices. For example, a one-way <\/em>fare to the Hyatt Regency downtown is $11 for the first person, $5 for each additional person in your party traveling on the same shuttle van. A round-trip <\/em>is discounted to $20 for the first person, $10 for each additional person in your party. For more information about service hours and fares, visit: http:\/\/www.sunportshuttle.com\/contact.htm<\/a>. Reservations are recommended and can be made in advance by calling 866-505-4966 or visiting the preceding link.<\/p>\n

The following taxi<\/strong> companies are recommended on the Albuquerque Official City Website. The taxis are located outside of baggage claim, can seat up to four people, and do not require advanced reservations. A fare from the airport to the Hyatt Regency runs between $15-18. Payments must be made in cash, though some of the Yellow Cab Company taxis are equipped with credit card machines.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to save some money and have a little extra time, you also have the option to take the bus<\/strong> from the airport to downtown Albuquerque. From the airport, ABQ Ride (http:\/\/www.cabq.gov\/transit<\/a>) route 50 toward Alvarado Transportation Center will get you close to the Hyatt Regency in about 30 minutes for $1.00. Trip planners are available on the ABQ Ride website and through Google Maps.<\/p>\n
