El Lencero Airport (Antonio Chedraui Caram Airport)

El Lencero Airport, officially Aeropuerto El Lencero-Antonio Chedraui Caram, is located in Emiliano Zapata, Veracruz, 13 kilometers southeast of Xalapa. The facility is operated by the state-owned entity Servicios Aeroportuarios de Veracruz. It is named after the town of El Lencero and entrepreneur Antonio Chedraui Caram.

Between 1998 and 2017, the airport supported daily commercial flights to Mexico City operated by Aeromar. Current operations are limited to general aviation, executive flight services, and flight training activities. The facility does not host scheduled commercial passenger flights.

Infrastructure at the site includes a runway, a passenger terminal, and several hangars. The apron is configured with helipads and parking positions for small aircraft. The facility utilizes AFIS UNICOM frequency 123.3 MHz for operations between dawn and dusk. Due to terrain rising to the west of the facility, landing approaches from that direction require a steeper than normal glide slope. Regional meteorological conditions frequently include fog and low ceilings, with prevailing winds typically originating from the east-southeast. During the polar front season from October to May, the site is subject to winds from the north.
