Genuinely functioning port of entry (on-site customs/immigration via the airport FBO), not a nominal 'Internacional' name only - this is the small resort town of Loreto's main air link, built around sport-fishing, diving and whale-watching/eco-tourism demand tied to Loreto Bay National Park. Scheduled service is carried by Alaska Airlines (year-round from Los Angeles), seasonal American Eagle flights (Dallas/Fort Worth and Phoenix), seasonal WestJet service (Calgary), and domestic routes on Volaris (Tijuana) and Aereo Servicio Guerrero (Guaymas, Los Mochis); Calafia Airlines, formerly a Loreto focus carrier, ceased all operations in January 2025 and no longer serves the field. Administration passed from ASA to the Navy-linked Grupo Aeroportuario Marina in 2023-2025.
