Cash loans in pesos, electronics, and more at Elektra Travel
Elektra Travel sits landside at Puerto Vallarta International Airport, before security for Terminals A and B, and runs typical daytime hours that generally match flight banks. It’s part pawn shop, part electronics store, part financial services counter, all under the same bright yellow Elektra brand you see around Mexico.
This shop focuses on basic electronics and accessories: expect phone chargers, cheap earbuds, small speakers, and power banks, usually priced higher than in town but acceptable if you just realized your USB-C cable is still at the hotel. You’ll also see boxed appliances and home electronics, but that stock is mostly aimed at locals, not someone about to clear security and board a 15:35 departure to LAX.
On the financial side, Elektra Travel handles small personal loans and related services in Mexican pesos, something most foreign travelers passing through PVR’s terminals A and B will never need. Signage is in Spanish first, with some English; staff often speak enough English to sort out a quick charger purchase, but detailed loan discussions clearly target local customers who know the Elektra brand from city branches.
If you just need a cable or power bank before a 2–3 hour flight, this works, but compare prices with the duty free electronics airside after security in Terminal A. Tip: buy your tech in town in pesos if you can; treat Elektra Travel as the emergency backup when you notice a dead phone at check-in and boarding starts in under an hour.
