Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International (ATL) is the city’s primary international hub, usually serving a mix of major network carriers and many domestic connections, with Delta operating a large hub presence. As one of the busiest airports worldwide, it can offer competitive fares on nonstop routes but peak periods may feel crowded. ATL sits about 10–12 miles south of downtown Atlanta; the MARTA rail line links the airport to the city center in roughly 15–20 minutes for a modest fare, while taxis and ride‑shares typically take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and cost more. Pros: extensive flight choices and frequent ground transport. Cons: busy terminals and occasional congestion during rush hours.
Cancún International Airport (CUN) serves as Mexico’s major Caribbean gateway and typically functions as an international hub for both full-service and low-cost carriers, with many seasonal charter flights. It’s usually seen as mid-range to budget-friendly depending on carrier and booking timing. The airport sits about 16 km (10 miles) from downtown Cancún and roughly 25–40 minutes by road to the hotel zone in normal traffic. Ground options include shared shuttles and private transfer services (commonly 25–60 USD depending on group), ADO buses to the bus terminal (around 90–120 MXN, 25–45 minutes), taxis and ride-hailing (fares vary). Pros: frequent flights, good tourist infrastructure and easy onward connections to Riviera Maya. Cons: can be busy and a bit far from some resort areas, so transfers may take longer during peak times.
