Frequently asked questions
What runway length is available at MMMT?
Minatitlán / Coatzacoalcos International Airport (MMMT) has a single runway, designated 01/19, measuring 6,890 feet long and 148 feet wide. The surface is asphalt and it is listed as paved. This length and width combination supports a range of business jet types without a paved-length constraint being an issue for most midsize equipment. There is no second runway at this field, so wind coverage depends entirely on this one strip.
How much cross-border business aviation traffic does MMMT see?
MMMT recorded 988 business aviation operations in 2025 according to FAA TFMSC data, out of 3,105 total annual operations tracked for the airport. Because MMMT is in Mexico, this figure reflects cross-border traffic seen by the FAA rather than the airport's full operational count. Monthly volumes ranged from a low of 50 operations in June to a high of 121 in December. The back half of the year, particularly September through December, consistently outpaced the first half.
Is traffic at Minatitlán / Coatzacoalcos International Airport spread evenly through the year?
No, traffic at Minatitlán / Coatzacoalcos International Airport is not evenly distributed across the year. Business aviation operations climbed notably from September through December, with each of those four months exceeding 114 operations. By contrast, months like March and June saw counts in the 50-to-52 range, roughly half the late-year peak. Operators planning around this field should expect materially higher activity levels in the fourth quarter compared to the spring and early summer months.

Minatitlán / Coatzacoalcos International Airport (MMMT) sits at a field elevation of 36 feet above sea level. It is located in Cosoleacaque, in the state of Veracruz, Mexico, and operates on the America / Mexico_City time zone. The airport also carries the IATA code MTT.
