Francisco Sarabia International Airport (Template:Lang-es, IATA: TRC, ICAO: MMTC), also known as Torreón International Airport, is an international airport located in Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico. It handles the national and international air traffic of the Comarca Lagunera, including Gómez Palacio and Lerdo in the state of Durango.

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 681,551 passengers in 2018, and 708,563 passengers in 2019.[1]

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