Did you know that the Cancún Airport (CUN) is the second-busiest airport in Mexico? The airport is located approximately 11 miles from the city centre and there are several ways you can travel downtown. The first option is to take the ADO bus, which leaves every 30 minutes from the airport, and take about 30 minutes to reach the city.
