Airport Guide

La Romana International AirportLRM

A private-feel gateway primarily serving Casa de Campo resort, with access to La Romana city and the dive village of Bayahibe.

Who arrives here?

LRM is the preferred arrival point for luxury travelers staying at Casa de Campo — one of the Caribbean's most prestigious resorts. It also handles private jet arrivals and charter groups. The airport has an intentionally exclusive feel, with very low passenger volumes and a smooth, unhurried process. Commercial flight options are limited, so most travelers choose LRM specifically for the proximity to Casa de Campo.

What to expect on arrival

1
Deplaning
LRM is a compact, low-traffic airport. The walk from aircraft to terminal is short and uncrowded.
2
Immigration
Present your passport and e-ticket QR code. Low passenger volumes mean immigration is typically very quick — often under 10 minutes.
3
Baggage claim
The baggage area is small and efficient. Luggage arrives promptly. Porters may be available for guests heading to Casa de Campo.
4
Customs declaration
Submit your customs declaration (included in the e-ticket). Proceed through the green channel if you have nothing to declare.
5
Exit and transport
Casa de Campo shuttle staff will be waiting for resort guests. Other travelers should have a pre-arranged transfer or taxi confirmed in advance.

Practical tips

✓Have your e-ticket QR code ready before joining the immigration line.
✓LRM primarily serves Casa de Campo — if you are not staying there, verify that your flight actually lands here and not at PUJ.
✓Punta Cana (PUJ) is about 90 minutes away and has far more flight options if direct LRM routes do not suit your schedule.
✓The airport arrival process is smooth and quick due to low passenger volumes.
✓Confirm your transport arrangement before flying — the options outside the airport are limited.
✓Private jet and charter arrivals are common here; the airport infrastructure reflects that premium clientele.

Common mistakes to avoid

✕Assuming LRM has regular commercial flight availability — schedules are very limited.
✕Not pre-arranging transport from the airport — options are scarce if you arrive without a plan.
✕Overlooking PUJ as an alternative — it is 90 minutes away but has significantly more flight choices.
✕Forgetting the e-ticket QR code required for immigration.
