Benito Juárez International Airport
FSX
Information:
Benito Juárez International Airport (IATA: MEX, ICAO: MMMX) is a commercial airport
that serves Mexico City, the capital of Mexico. It is Mexico's busiest airport by both
passenger traffic and aircraft movements and is Latin America's second busiest airport by
passenger traffic after Guarulhos Airport in São Paulo, Brazil and the busiest airport by
aircraft movements. Although Juárez was not its official name for several decades, it was
formally named after the 19th century president Benito Juárez in 2006, and is Mexico's
main domestic gateway. The airport is owned by Grupo Aeroportuario de la Ciudad de
México and operated by Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares, the government-owned
corporation, which also operates 21 other airports throughout Mexico. In recent years
Toluca Airport has become an alternate airport.
This hot and high airport is served by 30 domestic and international airlines and offers
direct flights to more than 100 destinations worldwide. It provides non-stop services from
Mexico City to North America, Central America and the Caribbean, South America, Asia
and Europe. In 2012, the airport served 29,491,553 passengers, an 11.84% increase
compared to 2011. For the 12-month period ending July 31, 2013, the airport handled
30,501,632 passengers. In optimal conditions, and with recent renovations and expansion
projects completed, the Benito Juárez airport will be able to handle up to 32 million
passengers per year. As the main hub for Mexico's largest airline Aeroméxico and a
secondary hub for its subsidiary Aeroméxico Connect, the airport has become a SkyTeam
hub. It is also a hub for Aeromar, Interjet, Volaris and a focus city for VivaAerobus.
