- OAX serves Oaxaca City and the long overland transfer to Puerto Escondido.
- HUX is usually the most convenient airport for Huatulco and can also work well for Mazunte, Zipolite and San Agustinillo.
- The final fare and payment are in Mexican pesos, even when an approximate USD reference is displayed later.
Which Oaxaca airport should you fly into?
Choose PXM for Puerto Escondido and its beach neighborhoods. Choose HUX when your trip is centered on Huatulco or the southeastern coast. Choose OAX for Oaxaca City, the Central Valleys or an itinerary that combines the capital with a private drive to the Pacific Coast.
Flight schedules and prices can make a different airport attractive, but always compare the ground transfer after landing. A cheaper flight may add several hours of driving.
