ASUR October 2026 Passenger Traffic Falls 0.9% to 9.3 Million as Mexico, Costa Rica and Curazao Decline
Why It MattersDeclines in Mexico, Costa Rica and Curazao outweighed gains in Puerto Rico and Colombia, showing airport traffic across ASUR's Americas portfolio moving unevenly rather than in one direction.
Grupo Aeroportuario del Sureste (ASUR) reported total passenger traffic of 9.3 million for October 2026, a decline of 0.9% from October 2025. The figures compare October 1–31, 2026 with October 1–31, 2025, and passengers in transit and general aviation are excluded for Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Curazao only.
By country, total traffic rose 4.8% in Puerto Rico, 2.8% in Colombia, 0.9% in Brazil and 0.2% in Ecuador. It fell 5.4% in Mexico, 6.6% in Costa Rica and 3.5% in Curazao.
In Colombia, domestic traffic rose 1.8% and international traffic rose 6.2%. In Puerto Rico, a 6.2% increase in domestic traffic was partially offset by a 3.0% decrease in international traffic. In Brazil, domestic traffic rose 1.0%, partially offset by a 3.5% decrease in international traffic. In Ecuador, a 5.9% increase in international traffic was practically offset by a 4.9% decline in domestic traffic. Mexico saw domestic traffic fall 3.7% and international traffic fall 7.6%. In Costa Rica, a 6.9% increase in domestic passengers was more than offset by a 6.8% decrease in international traffic.
