Due to ash fall from the Popocatepetl volcano this Saturday, the AICM (Mexico City International Airport) reported the cancellation of almost a hundred flights in both terminals.

Also, a significant number of flights in position were delayed; most of those affected were for domestic destinations.

According to information from the AICM, the capital's air terminal was closed from 4:25 a.m. on Saturday morning until 10:00 a.m., which meant approximately five and a half hours without operations.
