Cancún International Airport (IATA: CUN, ICAO: MMUN) is located in Cancún, Quintana Roo, on the Caribbean coast of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. It is Mexico's second busiest airport, after Mexico City International Airport in Mexico City. In 2006, the airport handled 9,728,149 passengers. In 2007, that number grew to 11,340,027 passengers, setting a new record.^[1]. It is currently the 4th busiest airport in Latin America, just behind Mexico City, and the two main airports in São Paulo, Brazil.

The airport has been expanding as the market has, nowadays, being the most important international airport in the country. It has one operative runway (with another in construction), and three commercial terminals. Terminal 1 is used by charter airlines from North America, including domestic charter airlines. Terminal 2 is used by some international airlines, as all of the scheduled domestic airlines, and new Terminal 3 handles almost all international operations of airlines from North America and Europe.

The airport is operated by ASUR, together with Cozumel International Airport, Mérida International Airport, Villahermosa Airport, Veracruz Airport and Oaxaca Airport among others.

Cancún International Airport has Three terminals: Terminal 1 serves all charter flights, while Terminal 2 and a connected satellite building serve all national and international scheduled flights and the new Terminal 3 serves as a relief for Terminal 2.

The terminals together comprise 47 boarding gates (of which 17 are remote), 22 (A1-A11 and B12-B22) in Terminal 2, and 14 in Terminal 3^[2].
