About Quetzalcóatl International Airport

Nuevo Laredo International Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional de Nuevo Laredo); officially Aeropuerto Internacional Quetzalcóatl (Nahuatl pronunciation: [ketsalˈkoːaːtɬ]) (Quetzalcóatl International Airport) (IATA: NLD, ICAO: MMNL) is an international airport located in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, Mexico, near the U.S.-Mexico border. It serves domestic flights within Mexico for the Laredo-Nuevo Laredo binational metropolitan area, the northern Tamaulipas and Nuevo León region and Southern Texas. It also supports various cargo operations, as well as executive and general aviation activities.

Operated by Grupo Olmeca-Maya-Mexica (GAFSACOMM), a holding company owned by the Mexican military, Nuevo Laredo Airport was named after Quetzalcóatl, a deity in Aztec and other Mesoamerican cultures. Historically, the airport was served by Mexicana, which operated flights to Mexico City and Guadalajara before ceasing operations in 2010. The airport handled 107,368 passengers in 2022, almost doubling to 197,673 in 2023.
