It's not often you see a completely new international airport open, but that's exactly what happened this month in Tulum, Mexico.

To visit the gorgeous beaches and ancient Mayan ruins of Tulum, travelers previously has to fly to Cancun and travel two hours by ground — either by renting a car, hiring a taxi or taking a bus.

With the opening of Tulum International Airport (TQO), travelers can skip the drive and fly right into the Yucatan Peninsula tourist hot spot.

The airport was originally slated to open this spring, but AeroMexico and VivaAerobus began flying there this month. For now, flights are all from locations in Mexico, with connections in Mexico City possible for travelers coming from the U.S.

Five U.S. carriers — American, Delta, JetBlue, United and Spirit — begin flying to Tulum from various domestic airports in March 2024, so it will be exciting to see this new airport grow.

NOTE: Due to the fact that MMTL is not represented correctly in MSFS we are opting to fly into MMTU.
