Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

The exact closure date is unknown. The airport is listed as 'closed' in current aviation databases, but no official public record or announcement specifies the date. This is typical for small, private airstrips that cease operations gradually and fall into disuse over time rather than through a formal closure event.

Reason for Closure

The specific reason for closure is not officially documented. However, given its nature as a small, private, unpaved airstrip, the most probable cause is economic. The closure was likely due to the owner no longer having a need for the airstrip, the high cost of maintenance relative to its utility, or a change in land ownership or use. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a major accident, military conversion, or regulatory action.

Current Status

Based on recent satellite imagery, the site is no longer a functioning airport. The unpaved runway is still visible but appears unmaintained and is partially overgrown. The land is integrated with the surrounding agricultural properties, which consist mainly of orchards. The runway is likely used as a simple dirt access road for farm vehicles. The facility is completely abandoned for aviation purposes.

Historical Significance

El Cuzareño Airport was a small, privately-owned airstrip (aeropista) serving general aviation. Its primary function was almost certainly to support the local agricultural economy in the Guerrero municipality, a major apple-producing region. Operations would have likely included crop dusting, transportation for farm owners and managers, movement of light cargo and supplies, and private recreational flights. It did not handle commercial passenger services or large-scale cargo operations.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening El Cuzareño Airport. As a privately-owned strip in a rural area, any reactivation would depend entirely on the landowner's initiative and investment. There is no apparent commercial or public demand that would justify its reopening.
