Aeromexico has announced new nonstop flights between Austin, Texas and Mexico City, Mexico. The new service started on November 17, 2016. “Aeromexico’s new Austin-Mexico City service will build a bridge to opportunities in Mexico,” said Mayor Steve Adler.
“This new direct flight links our two capitals and brings Mexico City’s ancient pyramids that much closer to our statues of Willie Nelson and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Welcome, Aeromexico.”
From Austin, the flights will depart Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays at 1:09 p.m. arriving in Mexico City at 3:33 p.m. Return flights from Mexico City will depart on the same days at 9:30 a.m., arriving in Austin at 11:53 a.m.
From Mexico City, convenient connections to 45 destinations in Mexico are available on Aeromexico. Beyond Mexico, Aeromexico offers service to 15 destinations in Latin America, four in Europe, three in Canada, and two in Asia.
“The new Austin – Mexico City nonstop flight is a step forward to the strengthening of the relationship between two capital cities that will not only bring both of our people closer than ever, but also expand our economic and trade potential,” said the Consul General of Mexico in Austin, Carlos González Gutiérrez.
“Adding Austin as our 17th destination in the United States makes us proud as this new service will increase our connections and frequencies between United States and Mexico City”, said Anko Van der Werff, Chief Revenue Officer, at Aeromexico.
“The Austin service increases our average weekly offer to 6,500 seats in our round routes to Texas that will increase economical, commercial, educational and cultural trade with the state; it also allows our clients to connect to more destinations inside Mexico, Central and South America” he added.
