Flight
Oaxaca International Airport
You will fly into OAX (Xoxocotlán International Airport). Nonstop flights from the US are available from Dallas and Houston. For those of you in a city without direct flights, we recommend flying to Oaxaca via Mexico City (MEX). With a connecting flight in mind, please allow yourself enough time to pass through immigration as this can take a little while. IMPORTANT!: If you currently do not have a passport or it is expiring soon, please be sure to apply ASAP as wait times for passports is currently several weeks/months long. The official wait time is currently 10-13 weeks, but this timeline can always change, so we encourage you to get this taken care of soon.
Travel Note
Transportation from Airport
The airport is about a 15-20 minute ride to downtown Oaxaca. Once you have your luggage, just before you exit the airport, there is a taxi booth called Transporte Terrestre where you can book an official taxi to take you to the city centre. This should cost you roughly 410 pesos ($20 USD) for a private car, or you can join a group car (also called a "collectivo") for 105 pesos ($5 USD) per person. Alternatively, upon booking your hotel, you can ask them to arrange a private transfer for you.
