Mexico City International Airport (Spanish:Aeropuerto Internacional de la Ciudad de México, AICM), officiallyAeropuerto Internacional Benito Juárez (Benito Juárez International Airport) (IATA:MEX,ICAO:MMMX) is the primaryinternational airport servingGreater Mexico City. It is thebusiest airport in Mexico,[5] and as of 2025 ranks as thethird-busiest in Latin America, the15th-busiest in North America, and the50th-busiest in the world by passenger traffic.[6] The airport is served by more than 25 airlines with routes to over 100 destinations acrossMexico, theAmericas,Europe, theMiddle East, andAsia.
As the primaryhub for Mexico'sflag carrier,Aeroméxico, the airport serves as aSkyTeam hub. It is also a hub forVolaris andViva and a focus city forMagnicharters. The airport has twopassenger terminals and tworunways. It hosts agencies including the Mexican Airspace Navigation Services (SENEAM), the MexicanFederal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC), as well as anAir Force base. The airport is owned by theMexican Navy and operated byGrupo Aeroportuario de la Ciudad de México. It is named after 19th-century presidentBenito Juárez.[7]
As part of Mexico City’s airport system—along withToluca International Airport andFelipe Ángeles International Airport—the airport operates at full capacity.[8] It is one of the busiest two-runway airports in the world, with 850 aircraft movements per day.[4] With an average daily passenger count of 122,000, the airport handled 44,605,576 passengers in 2025, marking a 1.7% decrease from the previous year.[4]
The site known as Llanos de Balbuena has been used for aviation since 1910. That year, Alberto Braniff made the first powered flight over Mexican soil, flying a FrenchVoisin aircraft with a 50-horsepower engine.[9][10] On November 30, 1911, PresidentFrancisco I. Madero became the world’s first head of state to fly in an airplane, piloted by Geo M. Dyott of Moisant International.[11]
In 1915, the site opened as Balbuena Military Airport, equipped with five runways.[12] A small civilian airport opened in 1928, with regular commercial service starting in 1929 and was officially inaugurated on May 15, 1931. On July 8, 1943, it was granted international status and launched its first international route toLos Angeles, operated byMexicana de Aviación.[13]
From 1949 to 1951, the airport expanded with a new runway (05R-23L), anapron, acontrol tower, and administration offices. PresidentMiguel Alemán inaugurated a renovated passenger terminal on November 19, 1952.[14] By 1956, the airport operated with four runways: 05L-23R (2,720 metres (8,920 ft)), 05R-23L (3,000 metres (9,800 ft)), featuring electric lights for night-time service; 13-31 (2,300 metres (7,500 ft)), built to replace Runway 14-32, which was too close to adjacent residential areas; and Runway 5 Auxiliary (759 metres (2,490 ft)).[15]
On December 2, 1963, the airport's name was changed from "Aeropuerto Central" (Central Airport) to "Aeropuerto Internacional de la Ciudad de México" (Mexico City International Airport).[16] In the 1970s, the two shortest runways (13/31 and 5 Auxiliary) were closed to facilitate the construction of a social housing complex in that area, namedUnidad Fiviport.[17][18][19] This left the airport with its current two-runway layout. The Mexico CityArea Control Center (ACC) began operating on November 24, 1978, and remains in service.[16][20]
The airport’s location in a densely populated area restricts infrastructure expansion. The proximity of the two parallel runways prevents fully independent simultaneous operations, limiting the airport’s capacity.[21]
The terminal was expanded in 1980, doubling its capacity. In 1990, the terminal was reconfigured to separate domestic and international operations. On April 11, 1994, a new international section opened through a joint venture betweenAeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (ASA) and Hakim Grupo Industrial.[22][23]
In the 1990s,Mexicana began decentralizing operations to reduce congestion, shifting many flights toGuadalajara,Monterrey, andMérida. In 1994, allgeneral aviation operations were moved toToluca International Airport, which became the new hub for private and non-commercial flights.[24] Since then, general aviation has been prohibited, with only military, government, commercial, and authorized flights permitted. In 2001, a satellite concourse with eight gates was added east of the main terminal.[25]
The congestion challenges at Mexico City Airport became a prominent issue in Mexican politics in the early 2000s. Large infrastructure projects, particularly in transportation, have historically played a crucial role in presidential legacies due to centralized decision-making, their symbolic significance for progress, and leaders' aspirations to leave a lasting impact.[21]
In 2002, PresidentVicente Fox's administration proposed a new airport on a 5,000 hectares (12,000 acres) site inAtenco andTexcoco. However, the Atenco project faced significant local opposition, particularly from theCommunity Front in Defense of Land (Spanish:Frente del Pueblo en Defensa de La Tierra, FPDT), representing locals facing displacement. Violent clashes forced the cancellation of the project later that year.[26]
Following the cancellation of the Atenco project, the federal government announced an extension to the existing terminal in 2003, increasing its annual capacity from 20 to 32 million passengers. The project added 48,000 square metres (520,000 sq ft) of new construction and renovated 42,000 square metres (450,000 sq ft), including new check-in areas, commercial zones, a departures concourse, and a long-distance bus terminal with direct access to nearby neighborhoods.[27]
Throughout the 2000s and 2010s, political initiatives aimed at establishing nearby airports such asPuebla,Toluca,Cuernavaca, andQuerétaro as supplementary options for serving the Mexico City Area were introduced. This initiative, known as the Metropolitan Airport System, aimed to reduce pressure on Mexico City International Airport.[28]
Until 2007, a single terminal served all flights at Mexico City's airport. The airport was among a few globally to employmobile lounges as a boarding system, a technology also used by airports such asWashington-Dulles,Montreal,New York-JFK,Paris-Charles de Gaulle, andJeddah.[29] This system involved elevated bus-like vehicles to transport passengers from gates to remote aircraftparking positions.[30] Terminal 2 was inaugurated on November 15, 2007, and fully opened in March 2008. It increased the number of gates by 40% and overall capacity by 15%. MostSkyTeam members—exceptAir France andKLM—moved operations to the new terminal.[31]
In 2014, aviation authorities declared Mexico City’s airspace saturated, capping operations at 61 per hour between 07:00 and 23:59.[32] That year, President Peña Nieto’s administration launched theTexcoco Airport project.[33][34][35] Positioned as Mexico's largest public infrastructure project in a century, it aimed to replace the aging Mexico City International Airport by 2023, featuring a state-of-the-art terminal of 560,000 square metres (6,000,000 sq ft) and six runways.[36][37][38] However,López Obrador, then a presidential candidate, campaigned against the project, sparking political controversy.[39]
Upon assuming the presidency, López Obrador's administration held a controversial public referendum on whether to cancel Texcoco.[40] Despite criticism over its legality and transparency, the project was cancelled, and construction began onFelipe Ángeles International Airport at Santa Lucía, which opened in 2022. Intended as a secondary airport for Mexico City, it has struggled to attract airlines and passengers.[41][42]
On July 23, 2020, Terminal 2’s Pier L extension opened, adding seven gates to reduce remote stand operations and bus transfers to aircraft. However, in 2022, a new saturation declaration reaffirmed the 61-operations-per-hour cap, effective 05:00–23:59 at Terminal 1 and 06:00–23:00 at Terminal 2, maintaining the 61 operations/hour limit.[43] In 2023, the Mexican government attempted to decongest the airport by relocating all cargo flights to Felipe Ángeles Airport, citing safety and congestion concerns.[44] In 2025, an MXN 8 billion (approx. USD 460 million) renovation began, scheduled for completion by mid-2026, aiming to improve operations and prepare for Mexico’s role in the2026 FIFA World Cup.[45][46]
The airport is located in the neighborhood of Peñón de los Baños withinVenustiano Carranza, one of Mexico City’ssixteen boroughs, 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) east ofDowntown. It is surrounded by built-up areas:Gustavo A. Madero to the north, andVenustiano Carranza to the west, south, and east.[47]
The airport spans 747 hectares (1,850 acres) and has two parallel runways separated by less than 300 metres (980 ft), which restricts simultaneous operations. At 2,230 metres (7,320 ft) elevation, the airport is classified ashot and high, where reduced air density reduces aircraft performance.[48] Runway 05L/23R is 3,900 metres (12,800 ft) long, and runway 05R/23L is 3,950 metres (12,960 ft) long. The runways, aligned southwest–northeast, contribute to aircraft noise pollution in central neighborhoods, especially during landings with northeast winds.[49]
Terminal 1, cargo facilities, maintenance hangars, and administration buildings are located on the north side of the airfield. On its northern edge,Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (ASA), a government-owned corporation, is headquartered.[50] On the south side of the airfield are Terminal 2, maintenance hangars, police facilities, Mexican Airspace Navigation Services buildings, and a military complex. The airport includes 95 aircraft stands for commercial operations, 63 of which are connected to the terminals viajet bridges (33 in Terminal 1 and 30 in Terminal 2), and 32 are remote.[51]
Air Force Base No. 19 (Spanish:Base Aérea Militar No. 19 Ciudad de México)(B.A.M. 19) is located on airport grounds, adjacent to Terminal 2. It serves as the home for the High Command Special Air Transport Unit (UETAAM), which operates a fleet that includes theBoeing 737, IAI 201, JetStar,King Air,SA 330J, andUH-60 Black Hawk. It also hosts the Coordination Office of the Presidential Air Transport Unit. B.A.M. 19 includes an apron and several hangars, one of which is known as the Presidential Hangar, used for state visits and presidential transport.[52] It also includes administrative buildings and facilities to accommodate Air Force personnel.[53]
Mexico City Area Control Center (ACC) is one of fourArea Control Centers in Mexico, along withMazatlán ACC,Monterrey ACC, andMérida ACC. It operates under the Mexican Airspace Navigation Services (Spanish:Servicios a la Navegación en el Espacio Aéreo Mexicano). Mexico ACC provides air traffic control services to aircraft within the MexicoFlight Information Region (FIR), covering central Mexico. It borders Monterrey ACC to the north, Mérida ACC to the east, Mazatlán ACC to the west, and Mazatlán Oceanic (MMFO) to the south.[54]
Terminal 1, operational since 1958, has undergone several expansions, with major upgrades in 1970, 1989, 1998, 2000, and 2004, resulting in a total surface area of 542,000 square metres (5,830,000 sq ft). The terminal is an 800 metres (2,600 ft) long, two-story building, with international services located in the eastern section and domestic services in the west. The ground floor houses all arrival facilities, including 22 baggage claim carousels; domestic check-in areas forVolaris,Viva, andMagnicharters (A1, A2, B, C, D, D1), and a commercial corridor hosting snack kiosks, banks, souvenir shops and car rental services. The top floor contains international check-in areas (F1, F2, F3), food courts, restaurants, security checkpoints, and a 900 metres (3,000 ft) long departures concourse (gates 1-28) connected via a walkway to a satellite building (gates 29-36).[55]
Terminal 1 offers 33 contact gates with jet bridges and 20 remote stands. Gates 1-18 primarily serve domestic flights, while gates 19-36 cater to international routes. Passengers using remote gates are transported by bus. The terminal also houses administrative offices, two long-distance bus terminals, and parking for 5,500 vehicles.
Terminal 1 features variousVIP lounges, including the Admirals Club byAmerican Airlines, Elite Lounge byMasterCard, Salón Centurión byAmerican Express, Salón Beyond byCitibanamex, SalaAvianca, The Grand Lounge Elite (Air France-KLM-ANA-Visa), Iberia VIP Lounge (Iberia-British Airways),Televisa VIP Lounge, Terraza Elite, The Lounge by Global Network,United Club byUnited Airlines, and VIPort Lounge.

Terminal 2 began operations on November 15, 2007, with inaugural flights byDelta Air Lines, followed byAeroméxico,Copa Airlines andLATAM. It was officially inaugurated by PresidentFelipe Calderón on March 26, 2008. Despite the initial plan for allSkyTeam member airlines to use the terminal,Air France andKLM opted to remain at Terminal 1. Terminal 2 currently serves as the main hub for Aeromexico. Due to capacity constraints at Terminal 2, some of Aeromexico's domestic services temporarily operated from Terminal 1 between 2021 and 2023.[56]
The terminal spans 288,000 square metres (3,100,000 sq ft). Arrivals are handled on the lower level, featuring 15 baggage claim carousels, customs and immigration facilities, and an arrivals hall with a long-distance bus terminal. The upper level contains three check-in areas (L1-L3), two security checkpoints, and a main concourse connected to three piers. A mezzanine level houses VIP lounges and administrative offices.
The three piers contain food courts, duty-free shops, and 30 gates (numbered 52-81), all equipped with jet bridges. The northern pier contains gates 52-62, and the southern pier has gates 63-75. In 2020, the terminal was expanded with the inauguration of Pier L, located at the southern end, adjacent to the airport's boundary with Boulevard Fuerza Aérea Mexicana.[57] Gates 75-81, used byAeromexico Connect services with narrow-body aircraft, are situated in this pier. Due to the building’s narrow layout, it lacks commercial amenities. Ten remote stands are also accessible via bus.
Terminal 2 includes several VIP lounges, such as theHSBC Premier Lounge, by HSBC, Salón Beyond by Citibanamex, Salón Centurión by American Express, Salón Premier Nacional and Salón Premier Internacional by Aeroméxico, Terraza Premier byHeineken and Aeroméxico, and VIPort Lounge. Hotel services include the 287-roomNH Hotel, and izZzleep Hotel Terminal 2. Parking facilities accommodate 3,000 vehicles.
Terminal 2 is served byAeroméxico,Aeroméxico Connect,Copa Airlines, andDelta Air Lines.
The two terminals are 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) apart. Passengers have two landside transport options: a bus shuttle service, branded as "inter-terminal transportation", connects Terminal 1 (Entrance 6) and Terminal 2 (Entrance 4).[58] TheAerotrénpeople mover, available only to passengers with a boarding pass and airline crew, operates at a speed of 45 kilometres per hour (28 mph) and has a daily capacity of 7,800 passengers.[59]
The intended construction of Terminal 3 was cancelled during the globalCOVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Furthermore, the opening of theFelipe Ángeles Airport in Mexico State in 2022 may pose challenges for the Mexico City Airport in achieving pre-pandemic levels.[8]

Transportation options to Mexico City’s secondary airport, Felipe Ángeles International Airport, are limited. Shuttle services from Terminal 1 are provided byADO andAeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares.
Taxis operate in Terminals 1 and 2 and there are two models of service: ordinary service in a sedan-type vehicle for four passengers, and executive service in eight-passenger vans. There are five taxi groups in operation, and these are the only taxis authorized by the Mexican Department of Transportation (SCT).
Llegas a un área donde hay unos 1.200 empleados e inmediatamente identificas quiénes son los que se están portando bien y quiénes no.
