Delta and Aeromexico to increase cross-border seat capacity by more than 30% by 2024

-

The Delta-Aeromexico Joint Cooperation Agreement (JCA) will increase operations between Mexico and the United States after the Civil Aviation Administration (FAA) upgraded the Aztec country to Category 1, allowing both airlines to launch new routes and reactivate their codeshare.

Starting in January 2024, Aeromexico will gradually add 17 new routes from seven airports in Mexico to nine destinations in the United States, and all of these services will be available under Delta’s codeshare.

With the new routes and increased frequencies to existing destinations, the Mexican airline plans to operate around 60 daily frequencies to the U.S. by July 2024, a 35% increase in departures compared to 2023, serving 36 U.S. markets.

Delta is scheduled to operate 34 daily frequencies to Mexico by July 2024, serving seven Mexican destinations. The Delta-Aeromexico JCA will provide more than 30% more seats year-over-year, expanding travel options between the U.S. and Mexico.

By next year, the Delta-Aeromexico JCA will provide more than 90 daily flights between Mexico and the United States on some 60 routes. This enhances the cross-border market through a robust network and expanded connectivity.

Aeromexico’s increase in routes, seat capacity and frequencies is due to the modernization of the fleet with more than 50 new aircraft, mostly Boeing 737 MAX. This is in addition to the Mexican airline’s growth at Felipe Angeles International Airport (AIFA), which will have more than 1,000 weekly flights starting in October, complemented by two new services from AIFA.

Delta and Aeromexico have developed the leading alliance between Mexico and the United States, the world’s largest cross-border airline market. Throughout their cooperation, both airlines have guaranteed their customers comprehensive services and products such as:

  • Check-in powered by Skyteam technology.
  • Free in-flight messaging via in-flight Wi-Fi (where available).
  • Consistent baggage allowance policies.
