That was buoyed by 5.8 percent growth in international traffic, according to ASUR, which manages Cancun airport and a number of other airpots across Mexico, Colombia and Puerto Rico.

For the year, Cancun’s airport traffic is now up by 6.9 percent, with a total of just under 22.93 million passengers served so far in 2018.

That includes 4.3 percent growth in international traffic, according to the company.
