Francisco Primo de Verdad National Airport– LOM
The now defunct Francisco Primo de Verdad National Airport, also commonly known as the Lagos de Moreno Airport, was a domestic public airport that used to serve the city of Lagos de Moreno, Mexico in the province of Jalisco. The airport was a direct entry into the city, which is known for its Historic Centre City that was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Best Time to Visit
For its former operations, the LOM-Francisco Primo de Verdad National Airport used a single asphalt runway that measured 3,937 feet in length. The airport is named after Francisco Primo de Verdad y Ramos, a well-known lawyer and politician in Mexico who advocated for independence from Spain. Leon is a nearby city to visit from the airport.
What to Do & Area Attractions
When the airport was still operational, the Francisco Primo de Verdad National Airport was at a very convenient location with many hotel options close by. A lot of accommodations are within a 20-minute drive away of the former airport, including Hotel Casa Grande & Centro De Negocios and Hotel Victoria Lagos. More excellent hotels that range from luxury to good value are in the nearby city of Leon, Mexico, such as Entre Patios Hotel Boutique and the Ramada Plaza Leon.
Now that the Francisco Primo de Verdad National Airport is closed, the city of Leon is also near the closest airport to Lagos de Moreno: Del Bajío International Airport (BJX) or Guanajuato International Airport in Silao, Mexico. Another relatively close international airport is Lic. Jesús Terán Peredo International Airport in Aguascalientes, Mexico.
