MEX: Cancun International Airport

Cancun-Chetumal Highway KM 22, Cancun, Mexico

Located approximately 16 km southwest of the downtown area, Cancun International Airport is the easternmost airport in Mexico. Even though it's the second busiest airport in the country, handling approximately 35% of all international passengers, it's larger in size than Benito Juarez International Airport in the capital city.

As soon as we reached the airport using the free shuttle service provided by City Express Plus Cancun, BFF and I went straight to check in for our Copa Airlines flight to Panama City.


We forgot to ask about lounge access for Business Class passengers of Copa Airlines at the check-in counter. After clearing immigration and security check, we learnt from the front desk staff at Plaza Premium Lounge that the airline doesn't have such provision at the airport. Such a pity!



Opened in 1975, the airport operates with two runways.




To reach the other side of the terminal where our flight would be departing from, we had to pass through a large duty free store.



At one particular shop, Melon's wish to wear the quintessential Mexican sombrero was finally fulfilled.



As we had some time to kill before boarding our flight, we decided to enjoy some Mexican food at Guacamole Grill for an early lunch. 



In Central America, the USA's largest American Chinese fast food chain can be found in Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador.


Cancun, I'll be back someday for a beach getaway!
