Additionally, it hosts military facilities for the Mexican Army, logistics and courier companies, and supports various aviation-related activities, such as tourism, flight training, executive, and general aviation. Oaxaca Airport has experienced rapid growth, mainly due to Oaxaca's popularity as a tourist destination.
