General Mariano Matamoros Airport , also known as Cuernavaca Airport or Cuernavaca International Airport, is an international airport located in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico, near Mexico City. It handles national and international air traffic for the city of Cuernavaca. It is part of the Mexico City Metropolitan Airport Group, as the airports of Puebla, Queretaro, Hidalgo, Mexico City, and Toluca, controlled by the private airport group Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (ASA).
It was recently renovated with the purpose of offering a fresh image, and modern facilities, and its composed of a sole building (excluiding general aviation terminal, hangars, and control tower), with check in facilities, security check-points, a cafe, ATM, customs, waiting room and a sole boarding gate. The airport infrastructure is being improved in order to be more attractive to airlines, with the construction of a turnaround at the end of the runway, to avoid mid-sized airplanes such as MD-80s to push back along the runway after landing to get to the terminal instead of just turning around.
It was Aerolineas Internacionales main hub before the airline ceased operations, and airlines as Mexicana, and AeroMexico are trying to develop traffic from that airport.
