Acapulco tourism and air connectivity recovery

Overview

Viva Aerobus has announced the resumption of direct flights between Acapulco and Cancún, scheduled to begin on November 3. The airline will operate two weekly direct flights on Tuesdays and Saturdays, adding to existing services that currently require layovers at Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA).

This expansion is part of a broader strategy by the municipal government of Acapulco to strengthen air connectivity and bolster economic and tourism recovery following the impact of Hurricane Otis in 2023. Local officials aim to use increased connectivity to attract more visitors, generate economic spillover, and create employment opportunities through coordination between municipal, state, and federal government levels and the private sector.
