Mexico City is served primarily by Mexico City International Airport (AICM), the country’s main international hub handling most legacy carriers and many full-service international routes, and by Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA), a newer facility positioned to absorb domestic and low-cost traffic. AICM sits about 13 km east of downtown and is typically reached in 20–45 minutes by taxi or rideshare (fares vary by zone), while AIFA is roughly 45 km north of the center with transfers taking about 50–90 minutes by bus or car; public buses and shuttles are available at both. AICM can be more convenient for connections and central hotels but may feel busy and pricier for some services; AIFA can be cheaper for certain budget airlines but adds extra travel time.
