The Strategic Advantage of MMTO
Mexico City's two main airports -- Benito Juarez (MMMX) and Felipe Angeles (MMSM) -- handle the bulk of the country's commercial traffic. Slot restrictions, congestion delays, and lengthy taxi times are the norm. Toluca International Airport (MMTO) operates in a different category altogether. With significantly lower traffic volume, private aviation operators like Aero JL benefit from rapid taxi-to-takeoff times, flexible scheduling, and dedicated hangar facilities that keep aircraft ready for deployment within hours.
Altitude and Performance
At 2,580 meters (8,464 feet) above sea level, Toluca sits at an elevation similar to many high-altitude airports worldwide. While this requires specific crew training and performance calculations, AeroJL's pilots have thousands of hours at this field elevation. The thinner air at altitude actually benefits jet performance during cruise, and our flight operations team accounts for density altitude in every departure calculation to ensure optimal payload and range.
Proximity to the Capital
The 65-kilometer drive from Toluca to Mexico City's Santa Fe business district takes approximately 40 minutes via the modern toll highway. For executives based in Polanco, Lomas, or Santa Fe, Toluca is often faster to reach than AICM during peak traffic hours. Several ground transportation services offer dedicated private transfers timed to your departure.
Aero JL's 3,459 m2 hangar at MMTO houses our entire fleet of eight aircraft, with maintenance, operations, and dispatch all under one roof -- enabling the fastest possible response times.
A Three-Decade Commitment
Aero JL has operated from Toluca since 1994. That three-decade presence means deep relationships with airport authorities, ground handlers, customs officials, and fuel providers. When you fly with AeroJL, you benefit from an operator that knows every corner of this airport and has optimized every aspect of the ground experience.
