San Francisco International (SFO) is the region’s primary international hub, serving major carriers including United, American, Delta and numerous global airlines alongside a strong presence of low-cost transcontinental and international operators. The airport sits about 13 miles south of downtown San Francisco; BART rapid transit typically takes 30–40 minutes and fares are usually in the mid-single digits, while taxi or rideshare journeys can be 25–45 minutes depending on traffic and often cost substantially more. Nearby Oakland (OAK) and San Jose (SJC) can be alternatives for budget or low-cost carriers, each a 20–60 minute drive and served by buses, shuttles and BART/Caltrain connections. SFO is well-equipped with lounges, shops and international facilities, though it can be busy during peak periods; OAK and SJC may offer lower fares but can add ground travel time.
Mexico City is served primarily by Benito Juárez International (MEX), the nation’s main international hub handling most full-service and many low-cost carriers, and Felipe Ángeles International (NLU), a newer airport positioned to relieve traffic with a mix of budget and some scheduled services. MEX sits about 8–14 km east of downtown and typically takes 20–40 minutes by metro, taxi or rideshare (fares vary widely), while NLU is roughly 40–50 km north and can take 45–75 minutes by bus or shuttle depending on traffic. Travelers usually find MEX more centrally convenient but busier; NLU can offer lower fares or less congestion at the cost of longer transfers. Ground options include Mexico City Metro and suburban buses, authorized airport taxis, and private transfers; schedules and journey times can fluctuate with peak traffic.
