Querétaro-Ing. Fernando Espinosa Gutiérrez Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional Ing. Fernando Espinosa Gutiérrez) (IATA: QRO, ICAO: MMQT) was an international airport situated in Querétaro, Querétaro, Mexico. It functioned as the primary airport for Querétaro, facilitating both domestic and international flights, in addition to supporting flight training, charter, cargo, and general aviation activities. The airport was named in honor of Fernando Espinosa Gutiérrez, a prominent engineer from Querétaro. It underwent dismantling in 2004, and the remaining facilities were subsequently donated to the Autonomous University of Querétaro, now operating as a university campus. The closest airport currently handling commercial flights is Querétaro Intercontinental Airport.
