Zero-brain vs precision
- Daytime default
- Pre-booked shuttle or licensed taxi booked against your flight number, straight to the hotel door.
- Precision
- One international terminal near Belize City; drivers wait outside arrivals (field-verify). The highway is used at night by trucks and animals, so late landings are better spent near the airport.
- Late-night threshold
- 19:00

If it breaks
- Book the transfer before you fly and send the driver your flight number; tell the hotel you are arriving late.
- Do not take an unbooked car late at night: if no driver appears, sleep near the airport.
- Rain can flood roads and delay the drive: keep a spare day before an onward flight.
