Mexico City is a large urban area and certainly can support several airports. You would need to leave four to five hours before the scheduled flight time to ensure that you don’t miss a flight. Two to three hours from the historic city center or Polanco are entirely unacceptable. This new airport is a complete disaster when it comes to the travel times from the areas where visitors in the city stay. The newspaper El Universal reported that getting to the AIFA from the AICM took 1 hour and 49 minutes on Saturday, but Pastor presented information last week showing that the journey takes just 57 minutes. Getting to the AIFA from the center of Mexico City, the neighborhoods of Condesa, Polanco and Interlomas, and the Mundo E shopping center takes less than an hour, the video said, even without new highway infrastructure in place. The AIFA posted a video to its TikTok account Sunday that claimed that travel times to the new airport are shorter from various points of the capital when compared with travel times to the site of the canceled airport in Texcoco, México state. Given its distance from Central Mexico City, travel times to the new airport have been a hot button issue. Pastor said last week that fast check-ins would compensate for longer travel times. Here’s an excerpt from the Mexico News Daily: The airport currently services a limited number of domestic flights and one international airline from Venezuela.Īirlines opening new routes to Mexico City are required to use the new airport, likely deterring them from flying to the city. The current airport (MEX) is only a 30-minute drive or more than an hour if traffic. It takes an hour and a half with light traffic from Polanco to the new airport (probably two to three hours in moderate traffic).
