About Cozumel International Airport
Overview
Cozumel International Airport serves as the primary aviation gateway for Cozumel, a popular island destination located off the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Positioned at 20.514922, -86.928538, the airport supports large commercial and tourist aircraft operations with its substantial runway infrastructure. As a significant transportation hub for the region, the airport plays a critical role in connecting Cozumel to mainland Mexico and international destinations.
Flying Conditions
The airport's low elevation of 15 ft MSL indicates a relatively flat terrain with minimal altitude-related performance considerations for aircraft. Situated in the Caribbean region, pilots should anticipate potential tropical maritime weather patterns with potential rapid atmospheric changes. The two substantial asphalt runways (05/23 at 10,165 ft and 12/30 at 8,858 ft) provide considerable operational flexibility for various aircraft types and wind conditions.
Notable Features
Cozumel International Airport features two parallel-oriented runways with significant length, accommodating large commercial aircraft. The airport's geographic position on an island environment means potential for sea-level wind variations and localized meteorological phenomena. Its proximity to coastal regions suggests pilots should be prepared for potential marine layer developments and wind shift potential.
Approach Considerations
With two extensive runways oriented at different angles (05/23 and 12/30), pilots have multiple approach options depending on prevailing wind conditions. The substantial runway lengths of 10,165 ft and 8,858 ft provide generous landing and takeoff margins for most commercial aircraft types. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind scenarios typical of island airport environments and be prepared to select the most appropriate runway based on current meteorological conditions.
