Airport facts

• IATA: MIA
• ICAO: KMIA

• Airlines at the airport: 5

Time difference against Mexico City. In July, Miami runs 2 h ahead of the Mexican capital (UTC−4 versus UTC−6). In January the airport operates on UTC−5, so the gap is not constant across the year: daylight saving shifts it. This is the calculation that decides whether a pre-booked ground connection still works.

Coordinates, and why we publish them. 25.795361, -80.290116 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.

What US DOT does not cover. The United States has no federal delay compensation: the Department of Transportation regulates refunds — your money back when the airline cancels or significantly changes the flight and you decline the alternative — but it does not require a payout for the hours you lost, the way EU261 does. The single federal exception is involuntary denied boarding from oversales, priced under 14 CFR Part 250; that is a different mechanism from delay and is not triggered by a late departure.

Routes to Miami (MIA)

Our catalogue lists 5 routes into MIA, totalling 101 weekly departures and spanning 855 to 2,422 km. The busiest is MEX-MIA at ~35 flights a week; 2 of them carry a cached fare, spread across 2 audience profiles. Every row in this section comes from that same corridor catalogue, not from a live search.

What traffic MIA moves. By audience profile, the routes catalogued here split as: Mexico-US paisano corridor (4), Latin American regional corridor (1). That mix explains the airport’s seasonality: family corridors spike in December and Holy Week, leisure ones follow the holiday calendar, and regional ones stay flatter across the year.

Why some rows have no fare. Of the 5 routes listed, 2 returned a price on the collector’s last pass and the rest show a dash. A dash means the automated query got no result for that pair — not that the route is suspended or expensive. For those pairs the reference price comes from the live search, which queries current inventory.

Connection tips

MIA concentrates 101 catalogued weekly departures across 5 airlines, in the America/New_York 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.

Miami International Airport runs on the America/New_York time zone; factor the offset from your origin city when planning connections and transfers. The busiest route at MIA is MEX-MIA (~35 flights a week). The lowest fare detected at this airport is $6,399 MXN on the GUA-MIA route. Book 4–8 weeks ahead for the busiest routes to/from Miami; 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.

A US layover needs a visa too. The United States has no visa-free international transit: with a Mexican passport you need a B1/B2 or C-1 visa merely to change planes in Houston, Dallas, Miami or Atlanta, even without leaving the terminal. Every US connection forces you through immigration, bag reclaim, customs and re-check. A US-routed itinerary that looks cheaper can therefore be unusable if your visa has expired or is still in process.

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.
