Mexico City International Airport (Benito Juárez, MEX) serves as Mexico’s primary international hub and handles most full-service carriers, including Aeroméxico and many global airlines, alongside several low-cost operators. Located about 8–10 km (5–7 miles) east of the historic center, it’s typically reachable in 20–45 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic; metered taxis and app services can cost roughly USD 6–15, while the Metro and Metrobus offer cheaper options (fare under USD 1) but can be crowded. The airport usually offers extensive connections and passenger services, making it convenient for transfers, though busy terminals and urban congestion can make ground transfers slower during peak hours. Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA, NLU) is positioned as a newer airport meant to relieve congestion at the main hub and often handles a mix of low-cost and some domestic flights, with growing international links. It lies about 45–55 km (28–34 miles) north of central Mexico City; travel times can be 45–90 minutes by bus or shuttle, and longer by car during peak periods. Ground connections include dedicated shuttle buses and regional coaches with fares typically higher than city public transport but lower than full private transfers. AIFA can be a budget-friendly alternative for some routes, though its distance from downtown and more limited amenities can be trade-offs for convenience.
Quito is served primarily by Mariscal Sucre International Airport (UIO), the country’s main international gateway and a hub for full-service carriers as well as regional airlines; budget operators also use the airport for domestic and short-haul flights. Located roughly 18–30 km east of central Quito depending on route, travel times can range from about 30–60 minutes by taxi or ride‑share, with fares typically higher than local buses; direct airport buses offer cheaper transfers in roughly 50–70 minutes. Pros: modern terminal facilities, reliable international connections and a range of services. Cons: traffic to the historic center can be heavy during peak hours and fares can vary with demand, so allow extra time for transfers.
