Since 2023 the federal operator Olmeca-Maya-Mexica has run Ingeniero Alberto Acuña Ongay International (IATA: CPE, ICAO: MMCP), the airport of Campeche on Mexico's Gulf coast, which handled about 127,500 passengers in 2025 against 133,377 in 2024. Its 2,500-metre runway and three-position apron accept Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 equipment, but no dedicated cargo terminal or regular freighter service is documented. Air freight here is essentially belly cargo on domestic services, chiefly to Mexico City. The surrounding economy rests on Pemex oil and offshore services and on fishing, so heavy and oversized traffic moves through coastal ports such as Ciudad del Carmen and by road. The airport sits some 9 kilometres from the city, with the Yucatán peninsula's road network providing trucking links north towards Mérida. For international air cargo with customs clearance, forwarders use Mexico City (MEX) and Villahermosa (VSA), with Mérida (MID) as the nearest peninsular alternative.
