This exclusive transport service for Viva Aerobus’ passengers will take them from the airport to Mexico City´s North Central Bus Terminal and vice versa. Bus frequencies match flights schedules for the convenience of users. Passengers can purchase this service for $75 pesos on the airline's website, at Viva Stores, at the North Central Bus Terminal or during their flight with the attendant crew.
“Starting our commercial operation at Felipe Angeles Airport meets the growing demand that has been recently registered in greater Mexico City metropolitan area. Viva Aerobus’ commitment is to keep connecting destinations, so more people have the opportunity to access convenient, safe and reliable air transport. We are excited on the opportunity at this region, and we will be able to deliver the best service with the youngest and modern fleet in Mexico and the lowest fares”, said Juan Carlos Zuazua, CEO of Viva Aerobus.
