Overall Recommendation
For a faster and more comfortable journey, I recommend taking a flight with either Aeroméxico or Viva Aerobus from Playa del Carmen to Morelia, especially if you wish to maximize your time exploring Morelia instead of traveling. However, if you're on a budget and enjoy road travel, the bus option with ADO offers a useful alternative with scenic views along the way.
