The management of this airport is the responsibility of Grupo Aeroportuario Centro Norte (OMA). Passenger traffic has grown over 25% during the last decade. As a result, the airport terminal has recently been expanded and refurbished to significantly improve its image and services: new areas of documentation, a second floor for boarding gates and waiting areas, a VIP lounge and new, multi-purpose business areas.

It handled 320,820 passengers in 2020, and 537,161 passengers in 2021.[2]

The airport was named in honor of Francisco Sarabia Tinoco, a pioneer of commercial aviation in Mexico.
