Meet the sindicado...
The taxista union...
No buses from the airport to CSL nor SJdeC.
On-the-fly taxi charge to SJdC is roughly twenty dollars
And few taxiistas want to miss out on their share of short hop fares -- so a direct from airport to Cabo San Lucas ride is scarce and if you find one once the driver announces the fare you will opt for the airport to SJdC shuttle.
Many of the announced "specials" are pre-paid reservations.
Most of big-tourist Mexico is this way - Can'tCun, Puerto Vallarta, Manzanillo, Zihuatanejo.
Last time I got a ride from Manzanillo to Barra de Navidad the fare was $27.00 dollars.
Van collectivos offer luggage capacity over urban transit buses. It's all big business at the airports so there is little guesswork involved.
In SJdC, the taxi driver told me it was an "infraccion" for him to drop me off at the highway junction from Mex 1 to the airport.
To me it's not worth hassling an alternative of getting from the airport to a shuttle point. I've never encountered a shortage of airport taxis.
Hope This Helps
