Coordinates, and why we publish them. 31.6361, -106.429 is the position from which every great-circle distance on this site is computed, including the ones that set the EU261 compensation band. It is not the distance the aircraft flies — that follows airways and diversions — but the geodesic measure the regulations use. Publishing it lets anyone recompute the figures on these pages.

Base of Aeromexico, Volaris. An airline basing here means aircraft and crews overnighting at the airport: more of its own services to rebook a disrupted passenger onto, and more early departures. The flip side is that at an airport dominated by one carrier the competitive pressure on fares is weaker than where several compete.

Connection tips

CJS concentrates 0 catalogued weekly departures across 0 airlines, in the America/Ojinaga zone. That density is what decides how much slack to leave on a connection: the more of its own services the airline runs here, the more same-day rebooking options exist.

Aeropuerto Internacional Abraham González runs on the America/Ojinaga time zone; factor the offset from your origin city when planning connections and transfers. Book 4–8 weeks ahead for the busiest routes to/from Ciudad Juárez; fares climb in December, Holy Week and summer. Each route guide above shows month-by-month seasonality and the lowest peso fare. That window is a general Mexican-market rule of thumb, not a measurement of this route: our series records observed prices, not the lead time at which each ticket was bought.

The cheap connection that loses the checked bag. Two separate tickets are not one itinerary: there is no interline agreement, the bag is not checked through to the final destination, and if the first flight lands late the second airline owes you nothing — it sold a different flight. The apparent saving evaporates the moment you buy a same-day replacement. On a single ticket, rebooking and the bag transfer are the carrier’s problem, not yours.

Arriving in Ciudad Juárez and leaving on a different ticket the same day. When the two flights do not share a ticket, what you need is not connection time but a full journey: deplaning, immigration, baggage belt, customs, check-in desk and security. Allowing under three hours for that sequence at an international airport is optimistic, and the cost of getting it wrong is a walk-up fare.

Great-circle distance is not the transfer. The figures in the table are geodesic, computed from each airport’s coordinates; the real journey depends on whether road, rail or a domestic flight exists, and on what they cost. An airport 300 km away can be more accessible than one at 120 km if the first has a direct motorway and the second does not. Use them to rule out, not to plan.
