Unveiling Airport Potential: A Simulation-Based Study of Felipe Angeles Airport's Capacity in Mexico City

The capacity of the newly inaugurated airport terminal in Mexico City, opened in 2022, has sparked debates regarding its adequacy to accommodate future demand. To address this critical question, our study employs simulation-based analysis to assess the terminal's true potential. By simulating various scenarios, we aim to provide insights into its capacity to handle increasing passenger loads over the coming years and decades. Furthermore, our analysis identifies potential challenges and issues that may arise with the terminal's growth. This research seeks to offer valuable perspectives for stakeholders involved in the airport's planning and management, contributing to informed decisionmaking in ensuring efficient and sustainable aviation infrastructure.
