Privater Autotransfer von Tulum nach Cancun Airport

Overview: transportation from Tulum to Cancun Airport

Although Tulum has its own international airport, the Cancun International Airport (CUN) is far larger and more popular---probably why you're making the trip! Airlines aren’t known to wait around for late passengers, so book your transportation from Tulum to the Cancun Airport with a company you can trust.

Most hotels require guests to check out before 11:00 AM. If your flight does not depart until late in the evening, it is the perfect opportunity to make one last excursion to the ancient Mayan city of Coba or the El Rey ruins in Cancun. Daytrip makes all of this easy to schedule!

About Cancun Airport

The Cancun International Airport (CUN) is located on the northeastern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula, a short distance south of Cancun on the 307 and 180 Highways. It is the busiest airport for international flights, not only in the Cancun area but for all of Mexico. The drive from Tulum to the Cancun Airport takes about 90 minutes straight up the coast of the Caribbean Sea.

The Cancun Airport has all the standard amenities for an international airport of its size: duty-free shopping, restaurants, storage lockers, and various lounges all within a short distance of each other. It has three terminals.

• Terminal 1: private flights
• Terminal 2: domestic and international flights

Check which terminal you’ll be departing from before you arrive at the airport for an easy drop-off.

Retrieve your items from your hotel room’s safe the night before

Not only will this prevent you from forgetting your valuables entirely, but it will also be one less thing on your to-do list in the morning.

Hotel safes may also malfunction. It is better to find out the night before that you need the manager to override the combination lock than to risk missing your flight the next day while waiting for help.

How to get from Tulum to Cancun Airport

Once you’ve gone through security, you’ll hopefully have time to browse the duty-free shops, fill up your water bottle, and freshen up before your flight.

The Cancun Airport has a couple of lounges from different price points, and a few are only for travelers from certain airlines or credit card memberships.
