Tips for 1½ hr Connections
Confirm your connection is ticketed on a single itinerary, as REX has very limited interline agreements between carriers.
Since there is no dedicated transfer desk, be prepared to exit security and re-check in if your bags were not through-checked.
Arrive early for connections involving VivaAerobus or Volaris, as gate changes are common and announcements can be limited.
Keep essential documents handy, as immigration and customs processing for any international arrivals can add unexpected time.
Because the terminal is small, there is little to do while waiting, so plan for a quiet layover with minimal food and shopping options.
Busyness — Connection Risk

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
Getting Between Concourses
REX has a single small terminal with gates arranged along one concourse, so all connections are made on foot in well under five minutes. There is no airside train or shuttle system, and since nearly all flights are domestic Mexican routes, security re-screening is minimal and typically only involves a single walk-through checkpoint near the gate area.
