 Cancun - Customs and
Immigration (2005) by Kaspian
Once you get through passport control and pick up your luggage, you'll be expected to push a button on what looks like a traffic light at the customs desk. I've seen some confusion about how people should approach this. You should try to go up to the light as a family or couple (when the agent waves you forward) so you don't have to do it all individually. Basically if you press "Green" they'll let you pass through, if you press "Red", they'll stop you, bring you to the side table, and look through some of your bags (usually not too thoroughly). It's just the luck of the draw. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Going home with Sobelair by Umfufu
Lighters were not allowed (so ..... hopefully there is somebody with matches when you smoke), parfume should be in your suitecase (what if you just bought it?) and sharp things ( like a nailcutter) were almost a fact to keep you in Mexico !
So make sure you know what is allowed in your beautycase before you have to leave it all in Mexico. Leave a Comment

 Arriving in Mexico by frqtflyr
Cancún International Airport (Aeropuerto Internacional
de Cancún) is 5 miles south of the city center,
two hours by air from Mexico City and just one hour from
Miami, Flordia. The airport serves a busy traffic load of
regional and international flights. Many flights to and
from Cancún also stop at Cozumel. A departure tax of
US$12 is charged to international travelers departing
from Mexico by air.
Cancun:
There are mini vans and deluxe cars that can take you
from the airport into Cancún. While you may see taxis
dropping people off at the airport, they're forbidden
from picking passengers up. Don't even try to hail one
down. There are rental car agencies at the airport and
in town, are dependable for any excursion into the Yucatán.
Cancún's public bus system is a great way to get between
Ciudad Cancún and the beaches of Isla Cancún. Playa
Express runs shuttle buses to destinations within the
Yucatán, including Chichén Itzá and Tulum.
Puerto Juárez, the port for passenger ferries to
Isla Mujeres, is about 2 miles north of Cancún's city
center. Boats leave every 15 minutes during the day for
the inexpensive 45-minute journey to Isla Muje Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Magnicharters is a rather small airline, their flights are limited to the most touristic spots (mainly beach destinations) in Mexico, but although it's a charter airline I found the service to be quite satisfying, the punctuality is fair, the quality of the food on board - and of the planes in general - is very acceptable.
I got my round ticket from Mexico City to Cancun for less than USD $300 on a long holiday weekend where most people like to travel (so we could call it "high season": Independence day, Sept. 16). However, their prices are rather low season-like: i.e. same as what other local airlines would charge you between September - November and January - May (except for Easter weeks), as these aren't busy times for traveling for domestic (Mexican) tourists; however, since it's winter time in the northern hemisphere there ARE many tourists from colder places coming down to spend a few days on our beaches, so it may be expensive to fly into Cancun directly from abroad.
Anyhow, you can also find good fares to fly within Mexico with airlines such as Aviacsa (good service and prices) and Volaris (I've heard that the service is fine and prices are quite low; however, these flights take off from the Toluca airport, not Mexico City's). Aeromexico and Mexicana also have several flights to Cancun (both non-stop and with a stop over), but they're the most expensive. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Once you are in Cancun or Playa del Carmen you can either get around by taxi (which can be fairly expensive) or you can take the local buses which are clean & very dependible. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

I arrived to Cancun with an airplane from Mexico City and then continued by bus to Merida.
Cancun can be done walking, but if you have to go from the beach end, where all the mayor hotels, shoppingmalls and nightclubs are, to the old downtown, it may be worth going by one of the local busses which anyway are increadible cheap.
I hired a bike which was a lot of fun too:), and know there's a great possibility to hire almost every thing with wheels on! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Once you're in the Tulum/Cancun area and if you don't want to rent a car, there are some very comfortable 'buses' which pass in the 'highway' that connects Tulum to Cancun (nş 307 for what I recall).
They stop right in front of our hotel (Bahia Principe Tulum) so we used them quite often to get to Playa Del Carmen, mostly.
I was quite surprised to see that these 'buses' (more like taxis) were some very comfortable and modern vans with A/C and automatic gears :)
They are used a lot by local workers also. The price was quite cheap (like 15 or 20 pesos...just under 2 dollars)
Make sure you ask the price before you enter the van, because there are some ripoff attempts ;) If it's way over the price I mentioned, then bargain (!!!) with them ;o) Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane
