El Tajín National Airport

Poza Rica Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto de Poza Rica); officially Aeropuerto Nacional El Tajín (El Tajín National Airport) (IATA: PAZ, ICAO: MMPA) is an airport located in Tihuatlán, Veracruz, Mexico. It serves domestic flights for Poza Rica and Tuxpan in Veracruz, while also supporting various executive and general aviation activities. Operated by Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares, a federal government-owned corporation, the airport takes its name from El Tajín, a pre-Columbian archaeological site in Northern Veracruz. In 2025, the airport handled 1,997 passengers. Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, Poza Rica Airport saw significant operations, largely driven by the substantial volume of passengers associated with the petroleum industry. While Aeromexico and Aeromar previously served the airport, most commercial flights were suspended by 2020. Since 2023, it has experienced intermittent service by the regional airline Aerus, with flights to Reynosa, Tampico, Veracruz, and Villahermosa.
