 Mexico City airport undergoes massive World Cup deadline renovation amid ongoing construction chaos

 With less than a month until the 2026 FIFA World Cup, passengers arriving at Mexico City’s Benito Juárez International Airport are being met with active construction zones, where drilling equipment, exposed pipes, and unfinished flooring dominate parts of the terminals. Despite the disruption, the airport is also filled with World Cup branding, including posters and large decorative soccer balls and trophies meant to keep the focus on the upcoming tournament.

Airport officials say more than 3,000 workers are on site operating up to 20 hours a day as part of an accelerated effort to finish major upgrades. The renovation, launched in May 2025 and valued at roughly $500 million, is one of the largest modernization projects in the airport’s history and is fully funded by the facility itself, which has been overseen by the Mexican Navy since 2023. The first phase is more than 90% complete, but officials acknowledge the work has been slowed by aging infrastructure and missing original construction plans in some areas.

The airport, which handles around 120,000 passengers daily, has long struggled with issues such as overcrowding, flooding, and aging facilities. Engineers and administrators involved in the project say years of underinvestment left the terminals in difficult condition, requiring extensive repairs and redesigns. The current overhaul includes new terminal facades, upgraded restrooms, improved baggage systems, and the replacement of nearly 1.1 million square feet of flooring and lighting, along with the recovery of additional passenger space through internal redesigns.

Security systems are also being significantly expanded, with the number of surveillance cameras set to rise from about 2,200 to more than 4,000, incorporating artificial intelligence to help identify potential threats involving vehicles, luggage, or individuals. Officials also say an anti-drone system is expected to be installed as part of broader security upgrades.

Work is being carried out in coordination with changes to airport operations, including an agreement between Mexico and the United States to adjust flight slot allocations under a 2015 aviation pact. The airport plans to gradually increase hourly slots to 46, following earlier reductions that had sparked international concern from airlines.

Even as construction continues, airport officials say a second phase of renovations will begin after the World Cup and continue through the end of the year, reflecting the long-term scope of the modernization effort as Mexico prepares to host global visitors.
