There was an increase in tourists coming from inside and outside Mexico at the beginning of the year. This is favorable data for ground transportation, which faced several tests during the height of the pandemic in 2019, 2020, and early 2021 in major cities such as Cancun, Tulum, and Playa del Carmen.
Less than three-quarters of this year, local agencies have closed their doors, and others have made giant strides in their operations in and out of Cancun.
There are about 25 million people who set foot on Cancun’s lands to spend the December, Easter, and Summer vacations. Due to this, transportation companies are taking measures to avoid delays in arrivals from the airport to hotels and vice versa due to the reconstruction of Luis D. Colosio Avenue, one of the main roads to the airport.
Fortunately, agencies have taken measures now to avoid any mishaps.
Due to the heavy influx of tourists in the city, transportation agencies have also improved their service and efficiency by 30% compared to previous years.
More and more carriers are adding value to their reservations, such as disinfection kits, water or beverages along the way, snacks, courtesy stops, and even discounts on tours of relevance in the city.
Unlike buses and public transportation services, private transportation offers passenger insurance and direct attention to the agency 24 hours a day. Therefore, the above can significantly benefit the user’s experience within the city and its surroundings.
Tips for Cancun travelers
The demand in the tourism sector is too high, so we recommend taking the necessary measures such as:
- Booking in advance
- Having a credit card and traveler’s insurance. (Many transportation companies already offer passenger insurance. However, it is necessary to hire one for recreational activities and others).
- Arriving on time at the agreed point to avoid mishaps or misunderstandings with the transportation agency or your plans within the city.
- If the visitor plans to travel with children or adolescents under 17 years of age. In that case, it is recommended that they are always accompanied by an adult responsible for them.
If traveling with babies, renting a baby seat in transportation reservation is advisable, or looking for an agency that includes it in its services, such as Cancun Airport Transportation INC.
