New Playa del Carmen villas at the north end of town offer the distinct advantage of being only 35 minutes away from the Cancun International Airport; as overall numbers of flights of Mexico increase, owners of these properties are likely to see even more options for their convenience.

The most recent statistics come as a surprising contrast to difficulties encountered by Mexico over the past two years. The global recession was the principal factor which caused substantial dips in the number of flights arriving to Mexico from abroad.

Despite this situation, however, in 2010 the total number of passengers arriving to Mexico by air increased 3.2% over 2009. The government has also announced aggressive plans for the expansion of the number of flights to Mexico, so that by the year 2011 it is expected that the total passenger arrivals will another 5%. A number of locations have already shown a significant increase in flights during the early part of 2011 over the same period in 2010. ...

These statistics are very favorable to an airport like Cancun International. Cancun is currently the second busiest in Mexico; it is expected to become the busiest within the next decade, and it has considerable capacity to increase even more in flight and passenger numbers. Two major factors in this expansion are the growth of tourism in the Playa del Carmen and Cancun area, and the airport's growing role as an international travel hub.

For those who buy Playa del Carmen villas located at the north end of town (the end closest to the airport,) this means they will be enjoying an increasing number of flight options to more locations throughout North America, South America and Europe.

Another feature which has also been increasing is the number of discount flights. As traffic to and from Cancun increases, it is also more feasible for discount airlines to offer direct flights to a growing number of locations through Canada and the states. Cheap direct flights are now available to locations where those wishing to save money used to have to find flights with lay-overs; in some cases, the discount direct flights are even cheaper than the connecting flight options.

Currently, Mexico enjoys the service of 47 airlines – domestic and foreign - serving over 58 destinations to add up to a total of approximately 600 routes that connect the major cities of this country to North America and the rest of the world. Those living near the Cancun International Airport enjoy the best of this service.
