Company

Company overview

Central North Airport Group operates, maintains and develops airports mainly in northern and central Mexico. Most revenue comes from regulated airport services, chiefly a charge for departing passengers. Airlines include this charge in tickets, collect it from passengers and remit it to the company. Airlines also pay for services such as landing and aircraft parking.

The company earns additional income by leasing airport space to shops and restaurants, often receiving the greater of a minimum rent or a share of tenant sales. It also collects parking fees and earns income from OMA Carga logistics, hotel operations and industrial-property leasing. Terminal commercial revenue is outside the airport maximum-tariff system.

The business depends heavily on passenger traffic, predominantly on domestic flights. Monterrey is its largest airport and revenue contributor. VivaAerobus supplies a large share of aeronautical revenue; together with Volaris and Aeroméxico and its affiliates, it accounts for most of that revenue. These airlines are not required to keep serving the airports. The Mexican government caps regulated revenue relative to passenger and cargo volumes, limiting the company’s ability to raise charges. Its concessions also require approved construction and maintenance investments, and it cannot continue operating without them.

OMA’s results depend heavily on Mexican domestic airline capacity, especially VivaAerobus and Volaris, which together supplied 62.9% of its aeronautical revenue from airline customers in 2025.

  • Pacific Airport Group shares OMA’s exposure to Mexican air-travel demand and airport concession policy: both charge airlines and passengers for airport use and collect rents from shops and restaurants. Watch its Mexican airport business rather than its Jamaican operations for a comparison with OMA.

  • ASUR shares OMA’s exposure to Mexican aviation demand, but its Cancún airport also competes for vacation travelers with OMA’s Acapulco, Mazatlán and Zihuatanejo airports; both operators earn airport-use fees and commercial revenue at Mexican concession airports. Cancún’s passenger traffic is the clearest place to watch that tourism rivalry.

  • Corporacion America Airports S.A. depends on traffic growth much as OMA does: both charge passengers and airlines regulated fees for airport use and also earn commercial airport revenue, though they serve different regions. Its passenger traffic and aircraft movements offer a comparison for the volumes behind OMA’s airport fees, not a direct read on Mexican demand.

  • American Airlines’ capacity on routes using OMA’s airports directly affects OMA’s airport fees; the airline sells passenger and cargo transport and accounted for 5.8% of OMA’s aeronautical revenue in 2025. Watch capacity changes on those routes, where OMA collects departing-passenger charges included in tickets and billed to the airline.
