Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) at Timehri, about 41 km south of Georgetown, is Guyana’s main international gateway. Passenger numbers have climbed steeply with the oil-and-gas boom and the Caribbean diaspora corridor, and the terminal has been expanded to match. GuyWay runs the corridor 24/7, so a midnight landing gets the same ride as a midday one.

Add your flight number when you book and the driver tracks the flight; if it lands late, the pickup is re-timed at no charge. Your driver meets you at the terminal entrance (there is only one, and no GuyWay desk or counter to find), with their name, car and plate shown in the app and a pickup PIN so you confirm each other. The route north follows the East Bank Highway: 45 to 55 minutes off-peak, up to 70 in traffic. Every fare is fixed before you book; payment is card, MMG, Apple Pay or Google Pay in the app, with nothing to settle at the curb.

Ready when you are.

Frequently asked

Where do I meet my GuyWay driver at CJIA?

At the terminal entrance. CJIA has only one, so there is nothing to work out and no GuyWay desk to look for. The app shows your driver’s name, car and plate and a pickup PIN you both confirm; the driver calls or messages you in the app when they are at the entrance, numbers masked both ways.

CJIA to Georgetown fare?

About GY$20,500 on the Airport Ride rate card, fixed in the app before you confirm. No surge, no haggling. The only additions are a stop or destination change you ask for, or a toll or bridge fee, added at cost.

How long does the ride from CJIA take?

Plan 45 to 55 minutes off-peak along the East Bank Highway. Morning and evening rush can push it to 70 minutes, especially past Providence Stadium.

What if my flight into CJIA is delayed?

Add your flight number when you schedule the pickup and the driver tracks it; a late landing re-times the pickup at no charge. Visitors can sign up with a foreign mobile number before travelling, so the booking is done before you land.
