Cancún International Airport (CUN) is Mexico’s main Caribbean gateway and typically functions as an international hub for both long-haul and regional leisure traffic, while also serving domestic connections. You’ll find a mix of full-service carriers and a strong presence of low-cost and charter airlines catering to holidaymakers. The airport sits about 16 km (10 miles) from downtown Cancún and hotel zone; road transfers usually take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, with shared shuttles, private transfers and taxis commonly available — fares can range widely based on service level. Pros: efficient tourist-oriented facilities, many flight options and easy resort transfers. Cons: busy peak-season crowds and occasional waits at immigration and baggage claim.
Medellín is served by two airports with distinct roles. José María Córdova International (MDE) in Rionegro is the region’s main international gateway and typically handles most long-haul and full-service carriers; it can be perceived as mid-range to slightly higher in price compared with domestic-only options. The terminal lies about 35–45 km (45–60 minutes) from downtown Medellín by road, depending on traffic; common transfers include airport shuttles, taxis and private transfers (roughly COP 60,000–120,000 depending on service) and occasional bus services that are slower but cheaper. Pros: modern international facilities and broad airline choice. Cons: distance from the city can add time and cost to transfers.
Olaya Herrera Airport (EOH) operates as a smaller, more domestic-focused airport located much closer to the city center, often used by regional and budget carriers for short-haul routes. It sits within Medellín itself, generally a 15–25 minute drive to central neighborhoods, reachable by taxi or local bus for modest fares. Pros: convenience and shorter transfer times for business travelers or quick connections. Cons: limited international flights, fewer amenities, and sometimes older facilities compared with the main international airport.
