AICM Airport (MEX)

Mexico City has two airports. We recommend MEX (Aeropuerto Internacional de la Ciudad de Mexico) because its closer to the city and the recommended hotels. Most international flights will fly to this airport. When you land we recommend taking any of their airport taxis to your hotel instead of an Uber as they are very reliable.

What neighborhoods to stay (for Airbnb or Sonder)

Remember Airbnb or Sonder have great and even more affordable options but to be safe (not sorry) make sure you stay in these neighborhoods: • Polanco • Condesa • Roma Norte. These neighborhoods are close to sightseeing places and the wedding venue. They're also quite safe to walk around.

Travel Note

Want to get a ride somewhere?

Public transit ok? Nope! We strongly advise against taking public transit due to safety concerns. How do I get around? Uber is an incredibly easy, cheap and convenient option just make sure you double check the license plate listed on the car! What about a cab? We recommend ONLY taking cabs if they are ordered directly from a hotel. Please note from the airport it is safe to grab a taxi, however, please make sure you order your cab from a licensed kiosk stand.

Travel Note

SIM Cards in Mexico
