Monterrey International Airport


Monterrey International Airport
Monterrey International Airport, (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional de Monterrey, IATA: MTY, ICAO: MMMY), ceremonial name General Mariano Escobedo International Airport, is an international airport located in Apodaca, Nuevo León, Mexico. Together with Del Norte International Airport, the airport handles domestic and international operations for the city of Monterrey and its metropolitan area.
There are almost 300 daily flights to more than 35 destinations in Mexico and the United States. It is the country's fourth busiest airport and is the busiest in northern Mexico. Only Mexico City, Cancún, and Guadalajara serve more passengers per year than Monterrey International Airport.
The airport serves as a hub for Aeroméxico,  Magnicharters, and VivaAerobus, and a focus city for Interjet and Volaris. Airport terminals were renovated and expanded in 2003 and 2007.
It's also one of the fastest growing airports in Mexico and among the Top 15 in Latin America: in 2017, the airport handled 9,771,630 passengers, and in 2018 it handled 10,733,186 passengers.
Facilities
The airport resides at an elevation of 1280 feet (390 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 11/29 with an asphalt surface measuring 3,000 by 45 metres (9,843 ft × 148 ft). A second runway which is rarely used is designated 16/34 and also has an asphalt surface with a stretch of 1,801 by 30 metres (5,909 ft × 98 ft). The main runway, 11/29, has an ILS approach system and has its own VHF omnidirectional radio range (VOR) and DME station. It is also capable of handling aircraft such as the Boeing 747-400, but due to the lack of remote positions, this airport is mainly used by smaller aircraft. In September 2014, Monterrey commenced its first intercontinental flight in years when Aeromexico begins flying its Boeing 787 Dreamliner four days a week to Tokyo-Narita as a fuel stop to flights between Mexico City International Airport and Tokyo-Narita. Aeromexico stated that the flight will last while Tijuana International Airport, the usual gateway to Mexico from Asia, makes improvements to its runway. Monterrey was selected due to its importance to the country's economy and for being a popular business destination.

Terminal B: 6 contact positions, 7 remote positions
Terminal C: 8 remote positions
VivaAerobus has its corporate headquarters in the Cargo Zone of Terminal C

CONTAINERS, DRUGS, GUNS & MONEY

              With Cargo Crime on the Rise, CakeBoxx is an Effective Security Solution In the last week there have been over $1B in container-related drug seizures in major US east coast ports, involving world class, C-TPAT Tier 3 companies. Astounding – yes! But what about all those container security programs? The exploitation of intermodal shipping containers as a conveyance for illegal drugs, weapons and other illicit materials has never been greater. More containers, bigger ships, increasing market driven need for speed – even the most diligent shippers are susceptible to the sophistication of modern-day supply chain crime. Everything scales. No doubt that advanced data, process management and container tracking systems are invaluable tools for today’s fast-paced supply chains. But, there is nothing like real ‘physical’ security to deter crime, protect your customers, your cargo and your reputation. CakeBoxx two...
