Tijuana International Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional de Tijuana); officially Aeropuerto Internacional General Abelardo L. Rodríguez (General Abelardo L. Rodríguez International Airport) (IATA: TIJ, ICAO: MMTJ), is an international airport located 5 km (3.1 mi) northeast of downtown Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. It serves Tijuana and the surrounding San Diego–Tijuana metropolitan area, home to a population of five million people.
The airport serves a network of 42 domestic destinations including most of the major and secondary cities across Mexico.[2] It is a hub for Volaris and a focus city for Viva. Additionally, the airport houses facilities for the Mexican Air Force and supports cargo flights, tourism, flight training, and general aviation activities. It is Mexico's westernmost airport and second-northernmost airport after Mexicali International Airport. The airport is operated by Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico.
Situated adjacent to the Mexico–United States border, Tijuana Airport is a geographically binational airport, having direct access to its terminal from Mexico, and from its Cross Border Xpress (CBX) terminal in the United States. This rare feature allows passengers with a boarding pass to walk across a bridge crossing the border. The CBX terminal handled more than 4 million passengers in 2024, approximately one-third of all passenger movements at Tijuana Airport.[1]
The airport ranks as the fifth busiest airport in Mexico for both passenger numbers and aircraft movements,[3] and holds the 16th position in Latin America and the 47th position in North America. It has witnessed significant growth, handling 8,925,900 passengers in 2019 and reaching 12,545,800 passengers in 2024. In 2022, Tijuana International Airport became the fifth airport in the country to surpass ten million passengers in a calendar year.[1]
