Major FAQ-Honduras
Airport and Arrival Information
Who will meet me at the airport? What should I do if I get delayed or miss a flight? When should I arrive?
All Honduras volunteers are asked to arrive at the Ram ó n Villeda Morales International Airport (a.k.a. La Mesa International Airport ). Upon arrival in San Pedro Sula, volunteers are to then purchase a ticket through a local coach bus provider (a popular and effective mode of transportation through much of Central America) – voyaging to Copan Ruinas where they will then be met and picked-up (at the bus station) by our local representative and then transferred to your assigned volunteer project.
We ask that you fly with all your important documents, including your volunteer placement, passport, visa and vaccination booklet. Please have them accessible in case you are asked to produce them. Volunteers will receive a tourist stamp on their passport good for 90 days upon arrival in Honduras . Our volunteers join our program on a tourist visa basis. Volunteers do not need a long term or working visa.
If some sort of delay occurs, including flight delays or missed flights, contact our Honduras office as soon as possible. Volunteers coming to Honduras are advised to arrive one day before their program start date. If you arrive more than one day early or remain in Honduras after the completion of your program, you will be responsible for your own room and food expenses.
