One connection away
133 airports are reachable from VSA with exactly one change, on top of the 12 nonstop. The ten below are the ones with the most frequency on the weaker of the two sectors, which is the leg that decides whether a same day connection holds. Computed from the scheduled network, not from a booking engine.

Alternate airports within reach
Airports within 400 km that also carry scheduled traffic. When a departure from VSA is cancelled or nothing suitable leaves that night, these are the options a desk looks at before it accepts a lost day.

How deep the VSA board really is
The table above says where a courier can fly from VSA. This reads the same 8 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound and what the clock here does to a Gulf working day, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.
- 5of the 8 destinations are flown by one airline
- 3destinations run less than once a day
- 1destination has four or more departures a day
- 62.5%of the destinations name VivaAerobus, the largest presence here
Who holds the departures at VSA
Four airlines appear on the VSA board and they do not hold it evenly. VivaAerobus is on 5 of the 8 destinations, 62.5 per cent of them, and on 3 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 5.7 of the 13.5 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.
The next largest presence is Volaris on 3 destinations. 1 of the 4 airlines at VSA appears on a single destination, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.
An airport held this tightly is quick to book and slow to recover: with 5 of the 8 destinations on one airline, the second aircraft on a VSA sector is usually another VivaAerobus aircraft, and when there is not one the desk is looking at another airport rather than another airline. That is why the alternate airports listed above matter more at VSA than the destination count does.
How much of the VSA board is daily
Of the 8 destinations, 5 are flown at least once a day and 3 are not, though none of them drops to once a week or less. The median destination on the VSA board is flown about once a day.
An average of 0.29 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: VSA to Tampico (TAM) is 2 a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.
The five busiest destinations carry 11.8 of the 13.5 departures a day, 87.3 per cent of the whole board. On that arithmetic VSA is five sectors and a short tail, so the depth on the board above is thinner than the destination count suggests and a hand carry that is not going to one of those five is planned around a single departure time.
| Destination | Country | The only airline on it | Flights a week | km | Routing |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tampico TAM | Mexico | VivaAerobus | 2 | 711 | plan this |
| Puebla City PBC | Mexico | Volaris | 4 | 599 | plan this |
| Veracruz VER | Mexico | Aerus | 6 | 378 | plan this |
The three destinations out of VSA where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable.
The way back from VSA
The desk holds the return direction for 6 of the 8 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On one of them the return into VSA runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gap is Mexico City (MEX) at 6.4 out a day against 2.4 back.
A return leg thinner than the outbound is the ordinary reason a same day round trip out of VSA turns into an overnight, and it is worth checking on each of those 1 sectors before the courier is committed rather than after.
The clock at VSA
VSA keeps America/Merida time, ten hours behind Dubai all year.
When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 23:00 at VSA, and a nine to six day at each end does not overlap at all, so an instruction written in Dubai is read here on the following working day unless somebody is woken up.
Where VSA turns up on the rest of this site
The airport also sits behind the Mexico country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.
One of the 346 published hand carry lanes runs through this airport: Houston to Villahermosa. A lane page is the commercial version of the board above, with the customs, the ground legs and the price at VSA written out.
Seven courier postings name VSA as the airport a courier here flies from: Tuxtla Gutierrez, Villahermosa and Coatzacoalcos.
To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with VSA already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 8 destinations above.
Where this came from
- Destination network, airlines and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07.
- Airport names and coordinates: the OnBoard Courier airport reference list.
- Distances: great circle, computed from those coordinates. They are not flown distances and will read short against a real routing.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing on this page states or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment through VSA is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. We keep the Atlas because our own desk needs it when there are twenty minutes to find a routing, and we publish it because a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite, including by competing operators. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct the entry.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes. If you fly often and want to carry, we are recruiting couriers.
