The partnership between Aeroméxico and Delta The duo has recently announced that it will offer three new non-stop connections from Mexico to Nashville (Tennessee), New Orleans (Louisiana) and San Juan, in Puerto Rico, starting in June 2027.

Each of these routes will be operated four times a week by Aeroméxico. Nashville and New Orleans will thus benefit from their first direct connection to the Mexican capital. With these openings, the joint network of the two partners from Mexico will reach 30 American destinations, as part of their Joint Cooperation Agreement.

Flights to Nashville will begin on June 13 from Mexico and return on June 14. New Orleans will be served starting June 17, while San Juan will welcome its first flight from Mexico on June 24, with a return the following day.

Aeroméxico will use 99-seat Embraer 190 aircraft, including 11 in First Class, to fly to Nashville and New Orleans. Flights to San Juan will be operated by 166-seat Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, including 16 in First Class.

In parallel, Aeroméxico will add a second daily frequency between Mexico City and Austin starting June 3, 2027, with the return flight launching on June 4. With this increase, the company will offer six daily flights between Mexico City and Texas, including Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio.

The new announcement strengthens an earlier announcement regarding the expansion of the network this winter. Aeromexico and Delta will offer new connections to Portland, Orange County and Fort Lauderdale starting in January 2027. This densification of the US network positions Mexico City airport as a good alternative to the major hubs operated by American airlines. In particular, for French business travelers wishing to reach the southern United States.

Paris, a strengthened market

In fact, connectivity between France and Mexico remains a key focus of development for Aeroméxico and its partner Air France. The Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle–Mexico route currently benefits from 21 weekly direct flights: 14 operated by Air France and seven by Aeroméxico. The two airlines thus offer an average of three daily frequencies on this strategic route.

Another important development awaits the French market: Aeroméxico will inaugurate a new direct connection between Guadalajara and Paris-Charles de Gaulle on April 13, 2027. This line will be operated three times a week, on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays, departing from Mexico. Return flights will depart from Paris on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. For Tomas Martinez, Commercial Director of Aeroméxico in France, the line will not only allow French business travelers to reach the second most populous city in Mexico, the capital of the state of Jalisco, but also a major economic hub.

«We benefit from the full power of the Air France hub at CDG. Through our alliance within Skyteam, Paris allows us to reach other important European markets such as Germany or the United Kingdom. Indeed, Paris appears as an excellent alternative to London Heathrow, where it is extremely difficult to obtain slots,» he describes.
