Mexico City International Airport (AICM, code MEX) sits just east of downtown, with two terminals, T1 and T2, surrounded by residential colonias — and some of Mexico’s best Airbnbs.
👀 Curious about my top pick? It’s the one-bedroom with room-darkening shades, about a 5-minute drive from Terminal 1 — check it out here.
