INTERSTELLAR TURBULENCE

How to get to Puebla & Tonantzintla


Puebla is a city of 2 million people located 140 kms east of Mexico City. It has an international airport with reduced traffic. Practically all foreign visitors arrive through Mexico City airport, although American Airlines and Aereo-California will start flying Dallas-Puebla direct from Dec 15. We still assume most participants will come through Mexico City Airport.

The most convenient way to get from Mexico City Airport to Puebla is using the bus service provided by the company Estrella Roja:

From CAPU you can take a registered taxi to the Hotel Colonial, in the center of Puebla. Fare should be about MX$20 and the journey is less than 15 mins.
From the Estrella Roja there are only standard (black) taxis. It is recommended to fix the prize in advance. It should also be about MX$20. The journey is even shorter (10 mins).

If you are arriving after 10pm to Mexico City we suggest you to stay at the Marriot hotel located at the Airport (no street walk involved).
