Puebla International Airport (Hermanos Serdán International Airport)
Puebla International Airport, officially Hermanos Serdán International Airport is an international airport located in the municipalities of Tlaltenango, Huejotzingo and Juan C. Bonilla near Puebla, Puebla, Mexico. It handles national and international air traffic for the city of Puebla.

It also serves as an alternate airport for Mexico City, being part of the metropolitan airport group for the Mexican capital, comprising the airports of Mexico City, Toluca, Cuernavaca and Querétaro. The airport used to be a hub for Puebla Air Lines before it ceased operations in 1995.

The airport was opened on 18 November 1985 with a flight from Guadalajara, Mexico operated by a Mexicana de Aviación Boeing 727-200. In 2001 the airport was given in concession to Operadora Estatal de Aeropuertos (OEA) for operation and development. OEA is a company founded specifically to manage and carry out investments to extend airport facilities. The following entities take part in OEA's establishment:

* Puebla State Government (26%)

* Operadora Internacional de Aeropuertos (49%)

* Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (25%)

In 2003, the US Trade and Development Agency (TDA) provided a grant for US $550,000 to OEA to enable the completion of a project feasibility study regarding the upgrade of the Puebla International Airport. OEA subsequently retained the services of The Louis Berger Group Inc. from the US to complete the study, which concludes that in the long term the airport might serve up to 15 million passengers annually considering that Puebla constitutes the fourth largest city in Mexico in terms of population.

Despite the aforementioned, and although the airport facilities were conceived to alleviate Mexico city's air traffic congestion, their capacities are still underutilized, notwithstanding that they have potential to serve the Valley of Puebla metropolitan area, which is the settlement of almost three and a half million inhabitants.

In recent years, the Puebla International Airport has showed a notable growth in passenger volume, operations and freight. In 2007 the Logistic Airport Center was opened offering all the facilities for the managing and commercial processing of cargo.

Presently, the airport has reached historical levels in its operative indicators. This situation has permitted members of the Board of Directors to support the decision to begin immediate actions to increase the capacity of the airport in the platforms areas and the Passenger Terminal Building as well.
