GRUPO AEROPORTUARIO DEL PACIFICO ANNOUNCES

NO MAJOR DAMAGE REPORTED AS A RESULT OF HURRICANE PATRICIA

Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, October 26, 2015 - Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: PAC; BMV: GAP) (“the Company” or “GAP”) announces that on Friday, October 23, GAP undertook preventive emergency measures as Hurricane Patricia moved over the states of Jalisco and Colima, with the potential to impact the Manzanillo, Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara airports.

The aviation authorities announced the suspension of operations at the Manzanillo and Puerto Vallarta airports on the morning of Friday, October 23. The hurricane made landfall on Friday at 6:00 pm near Cuixmala, approximately 85 kilometers northeast of Manzanillo and 180 kilometers south of Puerto Vallarta, causing no damage to the Puerto Vallarta airport and minimal damage to the Manzanillo airport, where GAP has already begun repairs. The Puerto Vallarta airport reinitiated operations with commercial flights on Saturday at 8:00 am, and the Manzanillo airport reinitiated operations at 3:00 pm that same day.

No damage to the hotels in these destinations has been reported. We expect hotels to continue operating normally and consequently believe that tourism will not be materially affected in these cities.

On Friday and Saturday, the city of Guadalajara experienced heavy winds and rain; however, operations at the Guadalajara airport were not affected. This airport operated normally and without interruptions, reporting no damage as a result of the storm.
