The flight will be operated by an Embraer 170 aircraft with capacity for 65 passengers. The cabin configuration includes 12 seats in Business Class and 53 in Economy Class.
“American Airlines has been a strategic partner for decades, and we recognize its commitment and investment to expand connectivity at Tampico International Airport. With this new route, it reinforces its position as the largest operator of international routes at our airports, now totaling 14 international connections,” said Abelardo Muñoz, Director of Traffic Development at Grupo Aeroportuario Centro Norte (OMA) .
He recalled that in the last five years, the company and airport concessionaire has invested nearly 300 million pesos in works for the maintenance and improvement of the operational infrastructure, including rehabilitation of runways, platforms, taxiways and service roads, in addition to improvements in equipment to reinforce passenger safety.
These investments, he said, will continue in the coming years with the aim of continuing to guarantee user satisfaction and the sustainable growth of the airport.
