Managua’s main gateway, Augusto C. Sandino International Airport (MGA), functions as Nicaragua’s primary international hub and handles most long‑haul and regional flights; smaller domestic airstrips serve remote destinations. MGA typically hosts a mix of full‑service carriers and budget/regional airlines, so fares can range from budget‑friendly to mid‑tier depending on carrier and season. The airport lies about 10–15 km east of downtown Managua, with taxi rides usually taking 20–40 minutes and costing in local currency equivalents of modest taxi fares; shared shuttles and hotel transfers are also commonly available. Pros: relatively quick access to the city and a straightforward layout; cons: terminal facilities can be basic compared with major international hubs and ground traffic may extend travel times at peak hours.
