Passenger traffic increased year-on-year by 6.8% in Mexico and 15.5% in Puerto Rico and decreased 14.2% in Colombia

MEXICO CITY, June 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo Aeroportuario del Sureste, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: ASR; BMV: ASUR), ASUR, a leading international airport group with operations in Mexico, the U.S. and Colombia, today announced that passenger traffic for May 2023 reached a total of 5.7 million passengers, 3.2% above the levels reported in May 2022.

Passenger traffic increased 6.8% year-on-year in Mexico and 15.5% in Puerto Rico; and declined 14.2% in Colombia. Passenger traffic growth in Mexico and Puerto Rico was mainly driven by year-on-year increases in domestic traffic of 13.9% and 12.6%, respectively and in international traffic of 0.1% and 50.0%, respectively. Traffic in Colombia was negatively impacted by the suspension of operations of two local airlines since March 2023.

This announcement reflects comparisons between the periods May 1 through May 31, 2023, and 2022. Transit and general aviation passengers are excluded from traffic measures in Mexico and Colombia
