About Querétaro Intercontinental Airport

Querétaro Intercontinental Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Intercontinental de Querétaro) (IATA: QRO, ICAO: MMQT) is an international airport located in the municipalities of Colón and El Marqués, Querétaro, Mexico. It handles the national and international air traffic of the Querétaro Metropolitan area and can function as an alternate airport to Mexico City International Airport. It replaced the Ing. Fernando Espinoza Gutiérrez International Airport, which is no longer operational.

Querétaro Airport serves as the main hub for the regional airline TAR Aerolíneas and provides passenger flights to various cities in Mexico, as well as international services to the United States. Additionally, the airport plays a significant role as a hub for cargo flights, offering services to Mexico, the United States, and Europe. Previously, the now-defunct cargo airline Regional Cargo was headquartered on the airport premises. Moreover, Querétaro Airport is home to the Querétaro Aerospace Cluster, which has rapidly grown into a major hub for aerospace activities in Mexico.

Querétaro International Airport has undergone significant growth, moving up from the 41st position among Mexico's busiest airports in 2010 to the 16th position in 2023. In 2022, it served 1,151,602 passengers, reaching the one-million threshold for the first time; and in 2023, it handled 1,767,376 passengers, a significant year-on-year increase of over 50%.
