Frequently asked questions
What does business aviation traffic look like at MMTO?
Adolfo López Mateos International Airport recorded 40,211 business aviation operations in 2025, according to FAA TFMSC data, out of 58,150 total operations. This traffic is crossborder activity as tracked by the FAA, not the airport's full operational count. MMTO ranks as a tier 1 facility in this dataset, reflecting its position as a high-volume terminal serving the Toluca area. Dispatchers routing into central Mexico should expect consistent bizav volume across the year, with some months showing higher concentration than others.
How long is the runway at Toluca International Airport?
MMTO has a single runway, designated 15/33, measuring 13,780 feet long and 148 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This length matches the airport's published maximum paved distance, making it one of the longer runways available to operators in the region. The paved surface supports a wide range of aircraft types without a shorter-runway constraint. Crews planning performance calculations should note there is no secondary runway option at this field.
When is business aviation traffic busiest at MMTO?
Business aviation traffic at Adolfo López Mateos International Airport concentrates in November, December, and March, based on FAA TFMSC monthly figures. November posts the highest single-month count at 3,993 operations, followed by March at 3,739 and December at 3,690. Quieter months include July and June, each falling near 2,700 to 2,800 operations. Operators scheduling flights into MMTO should anticipate higher ramp and slot demand during these peak months.
What is the field elevation at Toluca International Airport, and why does it matter?
Toluca International Airport sits at 8,466 feet field elevation, one of the higher elevations among major airports serving the Mexico City metro area. This elevation affects density altitude calculations, takeoff and landing performance, and engine-out climb gradients for turbine aircraft. Crews should factor elevation into runway length requirements even though MMTO's 13,780-foot runway offers considerable margin. Temperature at the field, which averages between roughly 64°F and 72°F across the year according to available climate data, compounds density altitude effects during warmer months.
What other airports are near MMTO in the Mexico City area?
Adolfo López Mateos International Airport (MMTO) has several airports within roughly 40 nautical miles, useful for alternate planning. Jorge Jiménez Cantú National Airport lies about 21 nautical miles to the northeast, Mexico City Benito Juárez International Airport is roughly 29 nautical miles east, General Mariano Matamoros International Airport sits about 35 nautical miles to the south-southeast, and Felipe Ángeles International Airport is approximately 40 nautical miles northeast.
