Airport contact
Border-city airport 18 km from downtown Ciudad Juárez, directly across from El Paso, TX; served by Volaris, Viva, Aeroméxico and TAR on domestic/cargo routings. Despite its international designation and functioning customs/immigration, it currently carries no scheduled international flights — high Mexican international-operation taxes push most cross-border air travelers to use El Paso International instead — while the field remains a key cargo/logistics node for the region's maquiladora industry.
