Recommendation
For a balance between cost and time, flying is the best option if you can secure a good deal on tickets, especially with major airlines like Aeroméxico or Volaris. The flight takes about 5 hours, which is much quicker than the bus. However, if you prefer a scenic view and want to save money, taking a bus with Estrella de Oro might be a great alternative, though be prepared for a longer journey.
