Not all trips need two weeks and a spreadsheet. Sometimes 48 hours is all it takes to reset your mood, expand your palate, and step into a different world. Mexico City offers just that: a color-saturated, culture-rich city where every moment feels cinematic. This micro escape hits hard and fast, with just enough time for tacos, museums, mezcal, and a little bit of magic. And yes, Airial can plan the whole thing before your plane boards.
