History

On 18 May 2023,[2] the Official Journal of the Federation (Mexico)[3] listed the creation of the company Aerolínea del Estado Mexicano, S.A. de C.V, that will "promote, operate and provide the public service of national and international regular air transport of passengers, cargo, mail or a combination of these, on its own account or through public or private persons.”[4]

In August 2023, deals were finalized by the Mexico government, which introduced the airline during a press conference. After launching ticket pre-sales in September, the airline is planning to begin operations in December 2023.[5][6][7]

The airline will be managed by the Secretariat of National Defense and will have its headquarters at Felipe Ángeles International Airport.

Operations

The airline will begin operations on 1 December 2023, with a planned fleet of 10 Boeing 737-800 aircraft.
