HomeCancún is a coastal city in the tourist destination called The Mexican Caribbean, i.e., the state of Quintana Roo, on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. It is a popular vacation spot on the Caribbean coast.
Peak season in Cancun tends to run from December to April. Prices in both airfare and hotel increase dramatically during these times, while dropping in the summer and early autumn months. Late June is especially hot, so come prepared or try the off season. Hurricanes can be a major threat in late summer and autumn.
Airlines that fly to Cancun from Mexico City include: Aeromexico, Interjet, Volaris; from the USA: AirTran Airways, American Airlines, Delta Airlines, United Airlines, Jetblue, USA 3000, US Airways and from Europe: AirBerlin Air France, British Airways, Air Europa and Aeroflot.
Cancún International Airport (IATA: CUN) (ICAO: MMUN) is Mexico's second busiest airport. It is about 10 km (6 mi) from the hotel strip and 16 km (9 mi) southwest of downtown.
One of Cancun's best features is its transport links, as most major air carriers in North, Central, and South America, have service to Cancun. There are some extremely cheap charter flight deals available from the UK(from around £100) as well as commercial flight deals from several European carriers.
