Mexico City is served primarily by Mexico City International Airport (AICM), a major international hub handling legacy carriers and many full-service international routes, while the newer Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA) and Toluca Airport offer alternatives geared more toward low-cost and domestic flights. AICM sits roughly 15–20 km east of the historic center; typical transfers include the metro and bus connections (30–60 minutes) or taxis and ride-hailing (30–45 minutes), with fares varying by service and time of day. AIFA and Toluca are farther out (40–60 km), usually cheaper for budget carriers but slower to reach. Pros: broad route choice at AICM and often lower fares at AIFA/Toluca; cons: congestion and longer surface travel times from the farther airports.
Managua’s main gateway, Augusto C. Sandino International Airport (MGA), functions as Nicaragua’s primary international hub and handles most long‑haul and regional flights; smaller domestic airstrips serve remote destinations. MGA typically hosts a mix of full‑service carriers and budget/regional airlines, so fares can range from budget‑friendly to mid‑tier depending on carrier and season. The airport lies about 10–15 km east of downtown Managua, with taxi rides usually taking 20–40 minutes and costing in local currency equivalents of modest taxi fares; shared shuttles and hotel transfers are also commonly available. Pros: relatively quick access to the city and a straightforward layout; cons: terminal facilities can be basic compared with major international hubs and ground traffic may extend travel times at peak hours.
