I’ve stood at the arrivals curb of the Cancun International Airport (CUN) more times than I can count, watching travelers realize they’ve just signed up for a two-hour headache. They walk out the sliding glass doors, hit by that wall of humidity and a literal wall of "independent" drivers, and they freeze. They didn’t realize that choosing the right Airport for Playa del Carmen isn't just about picking a code on a booking site; it’s about understanding the geography of the Quintana Roo coastline and the predatory nature of unplanned ground transport. If you land without a pre-arranged transfer or a clear understanding of the distance, you’re going to pay a "gringo tax" that starts at $100 and can easily climb to $250 for a one-way trip that should have cost sixty bucks
