Felipe Ángeles International Airport (NLU)

Felipe Ángeles International Airport opened in 2022 as the centerpiece of a massive federal infrastructure project, located at the former Santa Lucía Air Force Base approximately 50 km northeast of central Mexico City. The airport was conceived to relieve pressure on the congested Benito Juárez Airport and to develop the northern metropolitan region, and it has gradually attracted airlines including Viva Aerobus, Aeromar, and VivaAerobus for both domestic and international routes. Transport from the city center is provided by the Mexibús and suburban railway services, though the journey time of 1-2 hours remains a consideration for travelers choosing between the city's airports.

Mexico City International Airport (MEX)

Mexico City International Airport — formally Aeropuerto Internacional Benito Juárez — is Latin America's busiest airport and one of the most important aviation hubs in the Americas, handling over 45 million passengers annually in two terminals located just 5 km east of the historic city center. The airport serves as the main hub for Aeroméxico and handles extensive routes across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Metro Line 5 provides a direct connection to the city center for approximately 5 pesos — one of the world's most affordable airport transit options — though taxis and rideshare services provide faster point-to-point service to the major hotel districts. The airport continues to operate alongside the newer Felipe Ángeles International Airport in Texcoco.

Food

El Cardenal Mexico City

El Cardenal is Mexico City's most treasured traditional restaurant, a guardian of Mexican culinary heritage operating in the Historic Center since 1969 and serving some of the most carefully sourced and prepared traditional Mexican food in the country. Founded by José Luis Domínguez, the restaurant insists on sourcing every ingredient from its origin — chocolate from Oaxaca, corn from Tlaxcala, herbs from Xochimilco — and the resulting menu is a daily lesson in Mexico's extraordinary culinary geography. The breakfast service is particularly celebrated: traditional atole, hot chocolate, and pan dulce accompanied by eggs prepared in dozens of regional styles, served to a clientele that includes everyone from ministry officials to cathedral clergy.
