Cancun International Airport - The Michelangelo’s David of terrible airports – a true masterpiece of dysfunction.
Shall we pause for a moment to marvel at the “charm” of Cancun Airport?
Touristically and infrastructure-wise, it’s as if they stopped evolving sometime in the Middle Ages. Honestly, all that’s missing is the staff clanking around in knight armor, shouting, “Ye shall not pass!”
Highlights: * Wi-Fi? What Wi-Fi? There’s no network strong enough to keep you connected for more than 30 seconds. And get this – even Starbucks doesn’t have Wi-Fi here. STARBUCKS. If they don’t have it, what hope do the rest of us have?
Restrooms? Oh, there’s couple of em. Just coupe of. And judging by the lines, you might as well take a packed lunch for the wait.
Passport control for international flights? Nope. They apparently run on the honor system. “We trust you’re all good, right? Cool, have a safe trip.”
Power outlets at the check-in counters? None of them work. Not. A. Single. One. Half of them are taped over, the other half might as well be props from a movie set. Señor, where do I charge my phone? A cactus?
Culinary delights? If you consider greasy fast food and heartburn “delightful,” then you’re in for a treat. Otherwise, good luck.
And even after security, you’ll still hear the joyful cries of “Tequila, señor, tequila!” echoing through the halls.
Truly, Cancun Airport isn’t just an airport; it’s an immersive historical experience in how not to do modern air travel.
Cancun, have everything a destination needs to win, but by oh boy, your management sucks big time.
Glad I‘m leaving. What a shit show. Anything you guys wanna add to the horror?
Edit: I meant power outlets at boarding gates, not check in counters, my bad!
