Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur, Mexico

The reality is that Cabo San Lucas International Airport, the only privately owned international airport in Mexico, handles just 51,201 passengers per year. This sleepy regional hub is a far cry from the glitzy image of Cabo's beaches and resorts. While the airport services some charter flights to the U.S., the bureaucracy and red tape around operating flights here can be a persistent headache. And with the airport only open from 6 AM to 8 PM, your options for getting in and out are limited. Unless you're a devoted sun-seeker content to stay put, Cabo San Lucas may not be the best choice for those seeking an easy, cosmopolitan lifestyle abroad.
