Passenger traffic increased year-on-year by
4.5% in Mexico and 11.2% in
Puerto Rico and decreased 10.8% in
Colombia
MEXICO
CITY, Jan. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo
Aeroportuario del Sureste, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: ASR;
BMV: ASUR), ASUR, a leading international airport group with
operations in Mexico, the U.S. and
Colombia, today announced that
passenger traffic for December 2023
reached a total of 6.5 million passengers, representing an increase
of 1.8% compared to December
2022.
Passenger traffic presented year-on-year increases of 4.5% in
Mexico, 11.2% in Puerto Rico, while it decreased 10.8% in
Colombia. Passenger traffic growth
in Mexico and Puerto Rico was driven primarily by increases
in international traffic of 9.6% and 27.2%, respectively, while
domestic traffic decreased 1.1% in Mexico and increased 9.6% in Puerto Rico. Passenger traffic in Colombia remained negatively affected by the
suspension of operations of two local airlines in the beginning of
2023 which resulted in an 14.2% decline in domestic traffic while
international traffic increased 4.0% year-on-year.
This announcement reflects comparisons between the periods
December 1 through December 31, 2023
and 2022. Transit and general aviation passengers are excluded from
traffic measures in Mexico and
Colombia.
