About Cozumel International Airport
Cozumel International Airport is the main airport serving the island of Cozumel in Quintana Roo, Mexico. It connects the island with domestic destinations in Mexico and with seasonal international routes, primarily from the United States and Canada, making it an important entry point for visitors traveling to Cozumel's resorts, beaches, and dive sites.
The airport dates back to 1943 and was renovated and expanded in 2003. It operates a compact single passenger terminal with separate domestic and international areas, eight boarding gates, and facilities including check-in counters, security screening, baggage claim, shops, cafés, and car rental desks.
Located about 3 km north of downtown San Miguel de Cozumel, the airport is unusually close to the island's main town. Taxis, hotel shuttles, private transfers, and rental cars provide short connections to hotels, the ferry terminal, and beach areas across the island.
As a convenient island gateway, Cozumel International Airport offers travelers a compact and manageable arrival and departure experience, with direct access to the town center and onward transport to the surrounding Riviera Maya region.
