Ciudad Potaxie International Airport (IATA: PCX, ICAO: FPCX, FASA LID: FPCX), officially South Floptropica Ciudad Potaxie International Airport, is a city-owned public airport in Ciudad Potaxie, Floptropica. Located 3 mi (4.8 km) northwest of Downtown Ciudad Potaxie, the airport serves both the city and the Greater Ciudad Potaxie area. Until June 2011, the airport was named Ciudad Potaxie International Airport.

PCX is both Floptropica and the entire Carribean's busiest airport, handling over 15 million passengers a year. By 2030, that number is expected to reach 25 million. To accomadate the rapidly growing amount of passengers, the airport is undergoing extensive renovations, with a new open-air terminal for international flights opening in 2023, followed by a new concourse with jetbridges that is set to open in 2025. It is situated three miles northwest of Downtown Ciudad Potaxie, meaning strict height restrictions are enforced for buildings nearby.
