Aeroméxico to resume direct flights between Mexico City and Puerto Rico
Aeroméxico is set to resume direct flights between Mexico City and San Juan, Puerto Rico, starting November 9. The route had previously been suspended following a 2025 decision by the United States Department of Transportation, which revoked authorizations for several Mexican airline routes due to regulatory disputes regarding bilateral aviation agreements.
Puerto Rican Governor Jenniffer González and Puerto Rico Tourism Company Executive Director Willianette Robles announced the service, noting that by June 2027, the route is expected to operate four weekly frequencies. This expansion will add more than 34,500 seats to the archipelago’s air travel supply.
Authorities estimate the connection will generate an annual economic impact of 13.5 million dollars, driven primarily by increased tourism and commercial exchange opportunities between the two regions.
