Heads up, Tulum fans! Getting to those beautiful beaches and cenotes just got a whole lot easier. The Mexican government officially opened a brand-new airport right in Tulum.
Why should you care? For years, getting to Tulum meant flying into Cancun and then enduring a potentially long (and sometimes pricey) ground transfer. This new airport cuts out that hassle, potentially saving you time and money. While we don't have all the details yet on which airlines will be serving the airport and what the flight prices will look like, keep an eye out for deals! The increased competition could mean lower fares to the region overall, and who doesn't love saving money on vacation? This new airport could be a game changer for Tulum travel.
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
