Aeromexico Launches Nonstop Flights to New Orleans and Nashville
Aeromexico will launch nonstop service from Mexico City to New Orleans and Nashville in June 2027 through a partnership with Delta Air Lines.
Aeromexico announced a network expansion that includes new nonstop flights between Mexico City and both New Orleans and Nashville starting in June 2027. Operating through a Joint Cooperation Agreement with Delta Air Lines, the airline will be the sole provider of direct service between Mexico City and New Orleans, marking the first such connection in over 15 years.
Starting June 17, 2027, the New Orleans route will operate four times weekly on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays using 99-seat Embraer 190 aircraft. Helena Moreno, Mayor of New Orleans, stated the route will bring significant economic benefits to a region where Mexico is already the largest trading partner. Airport officials noted that unlike previous international efforts, these flights are not being subsidized.
In Nashville, the year-round service will also run four times weekly, with the inaugural flight arriving June 13, 2027. This expansion follows the recent addition of nonstop service from Nashville to Guadalajara. Across both markets, Aeromexico aims to provide travelers access to more than 100 destinations within its broader network. Local aviation officials emphasized that the success of these routes is critical for attracting further international air service to their respective regions.
