The exclusive spaces for smokers before taking a flight in Mexico

The Smoking Lounge, inside the Mexico City International Airport, is a great option to wait for your flight.

Restaurants, bars, corporate and now, the International Airport of Mexico City presents spaces for smokers, because there is nothing healthier than respecting the decision of each person. Within that is smoking in closed spaces. Yes, we know that these assigned areas have become almost niche, since, among those who like an occasional cigarette, they know the places that are allowed to practice, such as the Smoking Lounge within the complex.

Let’s see a couple of obvious data: the AICM is positioned as one of the 50 most important airports in America, so in 2017 it saw more than 44 million passengers pass, for 2018 they were almost 48 million and last year, the This figure went from 50,000,000 commercial passengers between arrivals and departures. So it is fair to think that a good percentage of them like a cigarette while waiting for their flight or connection to leave the country.
