MEXICO CITY, Oct. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo Aeroportuario del Sureste, S.A.B. de C.V.

Passenger traffic increased year-on-year by 2.7% in Mexico and 24.1 % in Puerto Rico, and declined 13.7% in Colombia. Passenger traffic growth in Mexico was mainly driven by domestic traffic up 9.0% which offset a 4.8% decline in international traffic, while Puerto Rico reported increases of 22.0% in domestic traffic and 46.4% in international passengers. Passenger traffic in Colombia remained negatively affected by the suspension of operations of two local airlines since the beginning of 2023.

This announcement reflects comparisons between the periods September 1 through September 30, 2023 and 2022. Transit and general aviation passengers are excluded from traffic measures in Mexico and Colombia.
