Helpful Tips
Use the ABQ Ride app to buy day passes and track buses in real time.
Sunport's ABQ Ride bus 250 runs to downtown every 30 minutes and costs a fraction of a taxi.
Pick up a 31-day pass at any Suntran customer service center if you'll ride more than twice a day.
Downtown's Alvarado Transportation Center is the hub, every ABQ Ride route and the Rail Runner train meet here.
Common Scams to Avoid
Unauthorized rideshare drivers at the pickup curb claim to be your booked driver and quote inflated flat rates, always verify the license plate and driver name in your app before getting in.
Taxi dispatchers outside baggage claim direct arriving passengers to "official" cabs that lack meters and quote flat zone fares well above the regulated meter rate, insist on a metered ride or use the designated taxi queue inside the terminal.
Rental-car shuttle drivers tell travelers that the on-airport rental counters are closed and steer them to off-site agencies charging add-on fees, confirm desk hours on the airport website and stay on the official shuttle to the consolidated rental center.
