## Description

Monterrey handles less freighter traffic than Guadalajara, yet Monterrey International Airport (MTY/MMMY) still processed 56,334 tonnes of cargo between January and September 2025 on the back of Nuevo León's manufacturing base. Automotive parts, electronics, appliances and e-commerce fulfilment volumes dominate the mix, and the airport counts among Mexico's four main cargo airports alongside Guadalajara, Querétaro and Toluca. Nationally, the all-cargo segment is led by the integrators FedEx, UPS and DHL, while belly capacity is dominated by Aeroméxico with roughly two thirds of the market, ahead of American and United. On-airport services cover bonded warehousing, customs brokerage and forwarding. Road connectivity shapes the routing decision: the US border at Nuevo Laredo is about 220 km away, so a large share of shipments is trucked north under road feeder service and flown from US gateways instead. Customs is administered by Mexico's ANAM, and much of the export industry operates under the IMMEX regime with temporary import of production materials. For maindeck capacity or e-commerce volume, Guadalajara (GDL) and Querétaro (QRO) are the usual comparisons, with Laredo and McAllen as cross-border road alternatives.
