In a move to enhance transportation options for travelers, Mexico City has introduced a new bus service connecting the Benito Juarez International Airport (AICM) and the Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA) in Mexico City, to streamline travel between the two airports.

The route will begin operations on Tuesday, November 21, and travel time is expected to be between 60-70 minutes in total.

Buses will leave AICM from Terminal 1 in the Courtyard By Marriott Hotel lobby.
