Because of its high altitude, Mexico City has pleasant summers and mild winters, making it an ideal holiday destination all year-round. May is the warmest month with temperatures reaching the high 20s, and January is the coolest with average temperatures within the teens and 20s, but night frosts are possible. The rainy season is June to September with July bringing the most rain. February is the driest month. December and January tend to have the most smog, although the pollution levels are improving.
Peak season:
In March the city is taken over with cultural events for the three-week Festival del Centro Histórico. The holiday periods of Semana Santa (Easter week) and Christmas to New Year are particularly busy with Mexicans visiting and tourists booking flights to Mexico City. During the month of Easter, Mexico City showcases artistic and cultural talent from the local community.Mexico City’s Annual Festivalfeatures entertainment in the form of opera singers, orchestras, theatre groups and dancers, and is one of the liveliest and most energetic festivals in the country. February is an even busier month for Mexico City as it hosts its own dynamic and colourful carnival. Visit Mexico during this time to see thousands take to the streets in high spirits to have fun, party, dance and sing well into the night.Mexico City Carnivalis a raucous affair which is on par with the famous Rio Carnival, so if you are looking for a relaxing trip, avoid travelling during carnival season.
Off season:
With its mild climate, you will be hard-pressed to find an off season in Mexico City. For fewer crowds and cheap flights to Mexico City, a non-holiday period is the best bet.Take a cheap flight to Mexico City to enjoy quieter celebrations like Fiesta de Santa Cecilia, which takes place in November, in Mariachi Square.The festival pays respect to the patron saint of musicians, St. Cecilia, with a tribute concert and an outdoor party involving dancing, drinking and singing.

Don’t worry about getting around Mexico City, one of the biggest cities in the world. The public transport system is efficient and cheap. The metro runs from early morning until midnight and is clean and easy to use. The bus system is also extensive, but you might find it easier to use if you speak Spanish. Minibuses can be a better option than buses, since they are smaller, faster and more comfortable. They can drop you off anywhere along their route. With so many people in the city, public transport can be very crowded during rush hour. Be aware of your surroundings during rush hour and at night; crime levels are high on the subway and buses. Central Square’s cobble-stoned streets can be a lovely area to walk around. If you want to take a taxi, be safe and call ahead for one, instead of hailing a cab. Many hotels and restaurants can help you get a cab. If you’re planning on driving in the city, know that it can be a tricky place to manoeuvre and prices are high. Additionally, cars are prohibited from driving in the city one day a week. Find out which days you are restricted by checking the last number of your licence plate against a list at the tourist office. When smog levels are high, as they are in December and January, numbers can come up more than once per week.
The main airport for those taking flights to Mexico City is Mexico City International Airport (Benito Juarez) (MEX). There is a Metro service from the airport to downtown Mexico City. Taxis are regulated and passengers can pay in advance at the taxi counter in Arrivals. There are also suburban bus services. Some hotels offer a pick-up service, however it is worth checking their charge as it’s generally cheaper to take a taxi.
Named after Mexico’s former president, Benito Juarez International Airport, also called Mexico City International Airport is situated in the densely populated capital, Mexico City. It is the country’s busiest airport, serving approximately 24 million passengers per year, and once renovations are complete, it will be able to handle up to 32 million passengers per year.
In spite of developments, though, Mexico City International is far from being adequate for the huge number of travellers who use it each year. This is due to the fact that it is completely surrounded by buildings, making expansion of the airfield impossible. Long queues and delays are common occurrences, which is why many travellers use Toluca Airport as an alternative.
Fortunately, however, Mexico City International offers much in the way of amenities, including a wide selection of dining and retail establishments, as well as business and conference facilities, most of which are located in Terminal 2. Terminal 1, by contrast, is old and outdated and lacks sufficient signage and lighting.
