Coming Home

The practical guide for Intipuqueños returning from the United States

You already know the way. We keep the checklist.

Four moves

Before you pack the suitcase

01

Book the flight home

Most routes land in San Salvador (SAL). From there it’s about 3–4 hours by car or shuttle to Intipucá.

02

Send money ahead

Cover the house, food, and family costs before you land. Remittance offices on the plaza know the diaspora calendar.

Remittance options

03

Lock a place to stay

Family homes fill first in March. Use rentals, guesthouses, or list a spare room for someone else coming home.

04

Show up for Fiestas

March is when Intipucá becomes both coasts at once — processions, music, and reunions that only happen here.

Flights

From the corridor to the gulf

D.C., Maryland, Virginia, and New York feed most of the March return. Book early for Fiestas — seats disappear first.

Remittances

Money that arrives before you do

Send for the house, the feast table, and the plaza shops you’ll visit in person. Then list those same shops so family abroad can find them year-round.

Stay

A bed near the plaza — or on the gulf

Browse rentals on Intipucá.us, or use trusted booking partners for La Unión and the coast.

For business owners

When they come home, be findable

March traffic is the best sales pitch you’ll get all year. List free, then go Standard ($30) or Featured ($75) before Fiestas.
