Felipe Carrillo Puerto International Airport, also known as Tulum Airport (TQO/MMTL), is a modern international airport located near the city of Tulum in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico. It was constructed to relieve pressure on the heavily congested Cancún International Airport and to provide direct access to the booming Tulum and Riviera Maya tourism corridor. The airport is named after Felipe Carrillo Puerto, a prominent socialist governor of Yucatán in the early 20th century. It represents a major infrastructure investment by the Mexican government, developed under the administration of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador as part of a broader regional development initiative. The facility is designed to handle millions of passengers annually and aims to attract both domestic and international carriers, supporting the rapid growth of Tulum as a luxury and eco-tourism destination on the Caribbean coast.
