Mexico City Airport Taxi Protest Paused as AICM Chief Agrees to Talks

Protaxi seeks enforcement of a 2008 ruling that fixes its ticket booth locations.

Overview

  • The group paused a planned protest outside the Navy Secretariat after the AICM director arrived to hear complaints that relocations have cut drivers' income, with a meeting set for later the day.
  • Protaxi bases its case on a 2008 amparo, a binding court order in Mexico that it says protects its booth locations and exclusivity.
  • The concessionaires asked the Navy Secretariat to order an on-site inspection by its internal watchdog to confirm where the booths sit and who controls them.
  • They also requested preventive orders and action over what they call contempt of the 2008 ruling by the airport.
  • Grupo Aeroportuario Marina said Protaxi owes 3,064,677 pesos in unpaid booth rent through April 5, 2026, a claim that could shape the talks.
