Passenger traffic increased year-on-year by 2.6% in Mexico and 8.2% in Puerto Rico, and decreased 10.1% in Colombia

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo Aeroportuario del Sureste, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: ASR; BMV: ASUR), ASUR, a leading international airport group with operations in Mexico, the U.S. and Colombia, today announced that passenger traffic for January 2024 reached a total of 6.3 million passengers, representing an increase of 0.5% compared to January 2023.

Passenger traffic presented year-on-year increases of 2.6% in Mexico and 8.2% in Puerto Rico, while it decreased 10.1% in Colombia. Passenger traffic growth in Mexico and Puerto Rico was driven primarily by increased international traffic of 6.3% and 23.1%, respectively, while domestic traffic decreased 2.2% in Mexico and increased 6.7% in Puerto Rico. Passenger traffic in Colombia remained negatively affected by the suspension of operations of two local airlines in the beginning of 2023 which resulted in a 14.1% decline in domestic traffic while international traffic increased 6.6% year-on-year.

This announcement reflects comparisons between the periods January 1 through January 31, 2024 and 2023. Transit and general aviation passengers are excluded from traffic measures in Mexico and Colombia.
