During May 2018, domestic
traffic increased in nine airports,
with the largest increases in:
- Monterrey (+9.7%; +70,000 passengers), with
49% of total domestic traffic, increased traffic principally
because of higher volumes on the Mexico City, Cancún, Guadalajara,
Tijuana, Puebla, and Mexicali routes.
- Culiacán (+27.8%; +42,107), OMA’s second
largest airport with 12% of domestic traffic, increased passenger
traffic on its Tijuana, Guadalajara, La Paz, Mexicali, San José del
Cabo, and Ciudad Juárez routes.
- Ciudad Juárez (+19.7%; +19,205) had increased
traffic on its Guadalajara, Cancún, Culiacán, and Monterrey
routes.
International
traffic grew in ten airports in
May, with the largest increase in Monterrey (+3.4%; +3,468
passengers), as a result of increases in the number of passengers
on the Seoul, Korea and Detroit routes.
Of total passenger traffic, 99.0% was
commercial, and 1.0% was general aviation.
