Francisco Primo de Verdad y Ramos Airport (LOM)

Francisco Primo de Verdad y Ramos Airport (LOM) is a domestic aviation facility serving the city of Lagos de Moreno in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. Situated approximately 17 miles south of the city center at an elevation of 6,168 feet, the airport primarily acts as a hub for general aviation, flight training, and regional charter operations. The facility operates from a single, basic passenger terminal building designed to handle domestic transit and essential administrative processing. Infrastructure at the Lagos de Moreno terminal is minimalist and focused on providing functional support for private pilots and seasonal travelers. While the facility historically hosted regular commercial services to major Mexican hubs, it currently lacks standard metropolitan amenities such as extensive food courts, professional lounges, or retail shops. The terminal provides essential waiting areas and check-in counters for travelers utilizing private or chartered flights, with processing typically handled directly by local airfield staff. Ground transportation to and from the LOM terminal is primarily managed via local taxis and private vehicles, given the airport's location south of the city center. The airfield features a single 1,200-meter asphalt runway (04/22) and typically operates during daylight hours under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). For travelers seeking major scheduled commercial airline connections in the region, Bajío International Airport (BJX) in León remains the primary gateway, located approximately 56 kilometers away. The airport is currently undergoing strategic assessments for future expansion into a cargo and logistics hub to support the Bajío industrial corridor, emphasizing its role as a key regional outpost.
