A good option for food is Ojo de Agua - airport outpost of the popular Condessa sandwich and salad place
Amy MarAugust 16, 2013The Internet username is starbucks@infinitummovil and the password is mocha12. I don't know how often they change it but I think every store gives you a different user and pass if you buy something.
Pierre VerdonAugust 12, 2013Huge airport. Numerous place to plug in your computer/smartphone. One more thing: you can find some free wifi connections (international and national departures).
Javier QuinteroDecember 30, 2018The airport is old, confusing and dirty. Information on screens is incomplete and inaccurate so you need to ask about your flight on a counter and they make you make a line for that. Be prepared!
This airport is a messy disaster. Overcrowded, with long queues everywhere… The biggest chaos is on the arrival side. Connections are a nightmare. Definitely to be avoid as a transit airport!
Always busy... watch your luggage at all times, watch yourself for any golf cars around... visit the VIP lounges... best service ever!
Brian StraussMarch 15, 2019Hey, not bad! Close to downtown and lacking the hordes of resort and timeshare sales people that greet you emerging from customs at many Mexico resort city airports. Tons of shopping but no good food.
If you need a massage, go to the 2nd floor in Terminal 1 (close to the Telcel Service Desk and the Post Office) :)
djcroft™ ®December 27, 2013...if you want free wi-fi...you need to buy to any stores/shops to get the password...:)
Take the metro to the city-center from Terminal 1 for only 5 pesos!
Daniel RoyJanuary 25, 2015Of you're coming from a domestic flight to an international one or vice versa, be aware you may have to change terminals. Train between terminals is free with itinerary.
God help you if you're flying in from south America to terminal 1. It will take you 1 to 2 hours to get your luggage. They also make you use a baggage porter.
Kat YaitzkiyAugust 8, 2015French Quesadillas and mushroom tacos are great option but not a good service!!!
jonasSeptember 17, 2013Beautiful airport. Fast service at the sports bar. No internet kiosks so use your brief free internet (log in as a guest) wisely.- Make sure you do put your liquids in a ziplock bag. After healthrow its one of the most stringent security at airports I've see lately
Be prepared for long lines at check-in if you don't have preferred status, but the security lines are generally very fast. The lounges are also very good.
Any flight connection requires to collect your luggage and go by the customs.
Cesar RamirezDecember 13, 2014for connecting flights avoid the Iine, get out of and go straight to the second floor. Keep clothes at hand. Some bags are Delayed up to a week.
There are 2 ways to access the national gates in terminal 1. The fastest is on the second floor of the zone marked as "A".
Security waits are not usually very long. Lots of self-checkin points. Lots of shops and restaurants. It's a LONG airport!
Coming to the end of its lifespan but still a nice place to come back too ❤️
Minus the dirty bathroom, this was one of the better airport experiences I've had.. people moved through baggage claim and immigrations fast enough and the security is much friendlier then in the USA.
The tram between terminals requires a boarding pass to get on. Stupid if you are connecting between flights on different carriers. I had to bluff my way through.
Taba bar in gate area M has free wifi - just make sure to ask the English-speaking manager for the password!
DO NOT lose or throw away your immigration card that you get when you arrive. You will need it to leave the country!!!!
JeanJanuary 27, 2014If you're here in winter, make sure you have your coat on you. It's very cold at night! Also be prepared to get randomly searched.
Fernanda GulloOctober 23, 2014Very nice airport, all gates are well signaled, and the staff is really attentious.
Customs lines can be super long, as can taxi lines. Skip the latter via Uber, but head to Puerta 1 if you're in T2 to avoid a chaotic search for your driver.
ErayJuly 8, 2013There are very few places to sit besides the gates. Go all the way to the end of the corridor to find seating
7eleven's coffee is the same as Starbucks but with better price :-). And, who will care if you have a cheaper coffee if no one knows you? Jeje
Paula TurattoJanuary 19, 2014If you have a connection here, be prepared to run. The employees from the airport are no able to give you the right information and you might lose your flight.
Josh RobertsApril 10, 2022Get food BEFORE you go through security - there are much more limited options once you get through, while before security they have literally everything.
Don't forget your immigration card, or you'll spend 120mins running around trying to get a new one. What a fucking joke.
This airport has a lot of options to eat, drink & have fun!
TomaszAugust 19, 2011If you need to take a taxi from the airport, check prices in various stands - prices can vary by more than 100%. (!) The stands located further from airport gates tend to be cheaper.
Christina LouiseNovember 6, 2019Terminal 1 (domestic arrivals) doesn’t allow you to be picked up by Uber from gates 1 or 2. Gate 3 is super crowded with everyone trying to see if their car has arrived.
Pay close attention to the monitors, gates change often and with little to no notice. Other than that, tacos are plentiful🙌
Less chaotic than you might think. Still best to arrive early for your flight.
Big airport, arrive with enough time. plenty options to eat and drink while waiting
Buy a coffee or tea at Starbucks and get free WiFi throughout the airport! Enjoy!
