How far is San Salvador, el Salvador airport from the main town?

Question

I have afive hour layover and would like to see some of el salvador before I head to Peru, any suggestions?

Answer 1

Comalapa airport is about an hour (depending on traffic) from the capital, San Salvador.  You can visit San Salvador, or as an alternative, visit Panchimalco (also an hour away).  

You can also visit Costa del Sol - Our beach towns are legendary, and you can find incredible seafood there (also about an hour away).  

Keep in mind that delays can happen, so allow yourself enough time to catch your flight.

I hope you enjoy El Salvador.

Answer 2

8.6 miles on the highway.

Answer 3

El Salvador International Airport (or Comalapa International) is located 45 minutes from the city of San Salvador.

Answer 4

You should take a taxi ( is faster) or a bus to San Salvador, will take about 45 minutes and in my opinion ask the taxi driver to take you to "metrocentro" ( is not to far from the highway) were you can spend some time shopping or just relaxing then 2 hours before your fly you can go back  just allowing some extra time.

Hope you enjoy!!
