Natural ventilation also contributes to the sense of well-being, with air conditioning used only in the boarding areas. A fundamental theme of the design is the constant supply of natural light, which filters in through the large window panes and the circular perforations in the walls and false ceilings there are domes on the roof without overheating the building.

First among them is the spaciousness of the large two-level hall, with its gardens, cafeterias, restaurants, shops, and services. The priority of creating a sense of expansive comfort for passengers was achieved by various means. The terminal building is the heart of the megacomplex. The various aspects of the program are organized by this green space: the four-story, u-shaped terminal building with its 23 boarding positions international flights along the north finger and domestic ones along the south the bus terminal and the seven-story parking building, with capacity for 2,500 vehicles, plus 900 more outside.

The enormous garden patio functions as a balcony overlooking the city and as a lobby. The complex consists of three interrelated parts: the terminal itself, with capacity for 12,000,000 passengers per year the large frame 130 meters square with its circular aperture 65 meter in diameter and 5-star hotel 8308 rooms distributed over three upper levels and the parking area. The location of the large building was determined mainly by an analysis of the platform, specifically of the position of the airplanes and their approaches. The new Terminal 2 is located to the southeast of terminal 1, on the other side of the runways. It also proposed, among other improvements, the construction of a new Terminal 2, for which a national competition was held in 2004. In response to the increasing number of passengers in Terminal 1 of the Mexico City International Airport, the federal government set up a Metropolitan System of airports with the objective of making the fullest possible use of the airport infrastructure of Mexico City and the surrounding states of Puebla, Morelos, Queretaro, and Estado de Mexico.
