Mexico City Airport Resumes Flights After Dense Fog Disrupts Morning Operations

The fog developed under a cold-front system that triggered low-temperature alerts across the capital.

Overview

  • AICM said departures and arrivals returned to normal at 8:14 a.m. local time after low visibility halted activity for roughly two hours.
  • The airport earlier warned of affected schedules and urged passengers to verify flight status with their airlines as operations paused for safety.
  • Aeroméxico and Volaris notified customers of potential disruptions and directed them to online flight-status tools.
  • Local reports indicated the sharpest impact on arrivals at Terminal 1, with visibility reduced along Circuito Interior near the airfield.
  • The National Meteorological Service tied the fog to Cold Front No. 11 and a polar air mass, while Mexico City issued a Yellow Alert for low temperatures in Álvaro Obregón, Cuajimalpa, Magdalena Contreras, Milpa Alta and Tlalpan.
