Mexico City's international and domestic airport is located 13 kilometres (8 miles) east of Mexico City's el centro district.

Airport facilities: VIP lounges, medical services, bureaux de change, ATMs, travel agents, tourist information, bars, restaurants, 24-hour luggage lockers, a telecommunications office, long-distance telephones and a wide range of duty-free and other shops. Car hire is available from Avis, Budget, Europcar, Hertz, Thrifty and Auto Rent. A rather swish art gallery is well worth a browse while the airport's excellent visitor info centre offers a mega-efficient hotel booking system.

Transport to the city: Skip the dirt-cheap offers of illegal taxi scams in favour of the super-efficient fixed-price Transportación Terrestre taxis - Mexico City's most reliable and safest option. Purchase tickets from booths at exits A, E and F. Metered taxis also serve the airport but it is important to agree on a price beforehand or buy a prepaid ticket (see Getting Around - Taxis). Alternatively, a trolley bus runs to Calzada Ignacio Zaragoza and eventually arrives in the city after an hour-long crawl - at least. In theory, Mexico City's packed, but extensive metro system also serves the airport. However passengers entering Terminal Aérea are not officially permitted to travel with luggage. Visit: www.metro.df.gob.mx for schedules.

Approximate flight times to city: London is 10-12 hours, New York is 5 hours, Los Angeles 3-4 hours.
