<p><a href="https://www.aeromexico.com/new/es-mx"><span dir="auto">Grupo Aeroméxico</span></a><span dir="auto"> reported that the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit ruled in favor of its alliance with </span><a href="https://es.delta.com/us/es"><span dir="auto">Delta Air Lines</span></a><span dir="auto">  and nullified the order of the </span><a href="https://www.transportation.gov/"><span dir="auto">United States Department of Transportation (DOT)</span></a><span dir="auto"> , which terminated the approval of the joint collaboration agreement between both airlines, as well as its antitrust immunity.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Antitrust immunity allows two airlines authorized by the competent authorities to coordinate certain </span><strong><span dir="auto">commercial and operational decisions</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , and without that authorization, they could face restrictions arising from competition laws.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“ </span><strong><span dir="auto">As a result, the joint venture agreement and its antitrust immunity remain in effect</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , allowing Aeromexico and Delta to continue offering greater connectivity, a broader network, more convenient service options, and greater competition for customers traveling between Mexico and the United States,” the company said in a statement.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">However, the Mexican airline, led by Andrés Conesa, stated that it is reviewing the Court&#8217;s opinion and possible next steps with Delta and its legal advisors.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">In September of last year, the United States Department of Transportation decided to terminate the antitrust alliance between Aeromexico and Delta Air Lines, because it considered that  </span><strong><span dir="auto">it generated anti-competitive effects</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , arguing that Mexico had supposedly not respected the </span><strong><span dir="auto">Air Transport Agreement signed in 2015</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , so the termination would come into effect on January 1, 2026.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“This action is necessary due to the anti-competitive effects in the Mexico City and United States markets, which provide an unfair advantage to Delta and Aeromexico as two dominant competitors and create unacceptable real and potential harm to stakeholders, including consumers,” the agency said.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">According to the final document, the DOT explained that the implications go beyond Mexico City, </span><strong><span dir="auto"> affecting competition for passengers and cargo operations</span></strong><span dir="auto">  in additional markets between the two countries.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">In that regard, Aeromexico and Delta went to court and in November 2025 obtained a suspension of the measure while the litigation was being resolved.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">The Court&#8217;s ruling of August 20 allows the two companies </span><strong><span dir="auto">to maintain their cooperation on the routes and services included within the alliance</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">For Aeromexico, the court ruling also means the preservation of a cooperation model that is key to strengthening its competitiveness against other airlines that operate routes between the two countries.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">It is worth remembering that, in July 2025, the DOT had identified that the limitation of </span><em><span dir="auto">slots</span></em><span dir="auto"> (takeoff and landing times) at the </span><a href="https://www.aicm.com.mx/"><span dir="auto">Mexico City International Airport (AICM)</span></a><span dir="auto">  and the relocation of dedicated cargo planes to the  </span><a href="https://aifa.aero/"><span dir="auto">Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA)</span></a><span dir="auto"> allowed the alliance between Delta and Aeroméxico to consolidate its position in passengers and cargo, with the Mexican airline having the largest share in the cross-border cargo market.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">At the time, Delta and Aeromexico argued that ending their alliance would lead to the cancellation of routes between Mexico and the United States; in addition, it would cause an economic impact of $800 million and lead to an increase in ticket prices.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">For its part, the DOT had argued that continuing the alliance </span><strong><span dir="auto">would lead to significant problems, such as higher fares in some markets</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , stifled innovation, reduced capacity (including frequencies and new routes), difficulties in &#8220;doing business&#8221; for U.S. airlines, and other impediments for established competitors and new entrants.</span></p>

<p><span dir="auto">Giancarlo Mulinelli, the airline&#8217;s senior vice president of Global Sales, said that this new destination will strengthen cultural, commercial and business ties between the two countries.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“With this, we will become the only airline in our country to directly connect Mexico City with two of Italy’s most iconic destinations, thus offering greater opportunities to meet a growing demand from passengers traveling for both business and pleasure,” he explained.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><strong><span dir="auto">The start of this route is planned for March 2027</span></strong><span dir="auto"> and will become the second city to operate in that European country, complementing the current service offered from </span><a href="https://www.aicm.com.mx/"><span dir="auto">Mexico City International Airport (AICM)</span></a><span dir="auto"> to Rome-Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">The route will be operated </span><strong><span dir="auto">with 787 Dreamliner aircraft</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , which will land at Milan-Malpensa International Airport.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">In this way, the company will add a total of seven destinations and 10 routes to Europe, which will increase its connectivity options.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">The Mexico City–Milan service is currently undergoing government approval, so information related to frequencies and schedules will be published once the corresponding validations are obtained.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“We are very excited to add the city of Milan to our international network, a destination that will allow us to strengthen cultural, commercial and business ties between Mexico and Italy,” Mulinelli concluded.</span></p></blockquote>

<p><a href="https://www.aircanada.com/home/mx/es/aco/flights"><span dir="auto">Air Canada</span></a><span dir="auto"> announced Anko Van der Werff as its next president and chief executive officer, and a member of the Board, who </span><strong><span dir="auto">will assume that position at the end of January 2027.</span></strong></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Van der Werff succeeds Michael Rousseau, who previously announced his retirement in March of this year after 19 years with the company, following an accident involving one of the airline&#8217;s planes at </span><a href="https://www.laguardiaairport.com/"><span dir="auto">LaGuardia</span></a><span dir="auto"> Airport in New York, and the controversy he caused </span><strong><span dir="auto">by announcing his condolences only in English.</span></strong></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Vagn Sørensen, chairman of the firm&#8217;s board, mentioned that </span><strong><span dir="auto">this change will drive growth and transformation</span></strong><span dir="auto"> to generate more value, while maintaining its commitment to a disciplined allocation of capital.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“Our Board of Directors was impressed by the quality of experienced executives from around the world who expressed interest in the position. We are delighted to have attracted and recruited an executive of Van der Werff’s caliber to lead Air Canada. He possesses exceptional international aviation experience and a proven track record of 25 years, including his most recent and visionary executive leadership at Scandinavian Airlines, Avianca Group, and Aeroméxico, and previously at KLM Royal Dutch Airlines (now Air France-KLM) and Qatar Airways,” he explained.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">Anko Van der Werff has over 25 years of leadership experience in international airlines, having held senior positions in Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East. Prior to joining Air Canada, he was President and CEO of </span><a href="https://www.flysas.com/es-es"><span dir="auto">SAS Scandinavian Airlines,</span></a><span dir="auto"> leading the airline through a significant period of transformation and strategic renewal.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">He also served as CEO of </span><a href="https://www.avianca.com/es"><span dir="auto">Avianca,</span></a><span dir="auto"> one of Latin America&#8217;s leading airlines. Early in his career, </span><strong><span dir="auto">he was Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer at </span><a href="https://www.aeromexico.com/new/es-mx"><span dir="auto">Aeroméxico</span></a></strong><span dir="auto"> , held senior commercial management positions at </span><a href="https://www.qatarairways.com/en/homepage.html"><span dir="auto">Qatar Airways</span></a><span dir="auto"> , and occupied various executive roles at </span><a href="https://www.klm.com/"><span dir="auto">KLM Royal Dutch Airlines.</span></a></p>
<p><span dir="auto">He also served on the Board of Governors of the </span><a href="https://www.iata.org/"><span dir="auto">International </span></a><a href="https://www.iata.org/"><span dir="auto">Air Transport Association (IATA)</span></a><span dir="auto"> until June 2026 and has served on the boards of directors of several international organizations in the aviation, technology, and business sectors. He holds a Master of Laws degree from Leiden University and completed executive studies at Harvard Business School.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“Air Canada is a leading airline recognized globally. It is an honor to be chosen to lead this iconic Canadian company as it drives its ambitions and strategy, builds on its award-winning employee culture and customer value proposition, and prepares for an even brighter future,” said Anko Van der Werff.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">Sørensen, for his part, thanked Michael Rousseau for “his exceptional leadership and extraordinary contributions, which are largely responsible for Air Canada’s enviable position among global airlines. We are grateful for that legacy and his support during the transition.”</span></p>
<p><strong><span dir="auto">Rousseau&#8217;s retirement will be effective from August 31, 2026.</span></strong><span dir="auto"> He will remain available as needed throughout the transition. Following his departure and during the transition period, the Executive Committee will keep the Board of Directors informed.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">The airline stated that Van der Werff&#8217;s selection follows an extensive global search for the best person to lead Air Canada into the future and considered several performance criteria, including </span><strong><span dir="auto">the ability to communicate in French. A native of the Netherlands, he speaks Dutch, as well as English, Spanish, Italian, and Swedish at varying levels.</span></strong></p>

<p><span dir="auto">Authorities at </span><a href="https://www.aicm.com.mx/"><span dir="auto">Mexico City International Airport (AICM)</span></a><span dir="auto"> believe that the renovations being carried out on this infrastructure could allow for a further increase </span><strong><span dir="auto">in </span></strong><strong><span dir="auto">takeoff </span></strong><strong><span dir="auto">and landing </span><em><span dir="auto">slots</span></em><span dir="auto"> .</span></strong></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“I believe so, we are working towards that. We are building three taxiways; Delta One is already finished, which allows the aircraft to occupy the runway for the shortest possible time; the second taxiway is already under construction and will be completed in July of this year, and a third one between December and January of next year,” Admiral Juan José Padilla Olmos, general director of AICM, told T21.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">However, he specified that the </span><a href="https://www.gob.mx/afac/es"><span dir="auto">Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC)</span></a><span dir="auto"> and the </span><a href="https://www.tsa.gov/"><span dir="auto">Transportation Security Administration (TSA)</span></a><span dir="auto">  will determine, through an evaluation of the AICM&#8217;s capabilities, whether it is feasible to increase the </span><em><span dir="auto">slots</span></em><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><em><span dir="auto">Padilla Olmos also confirmed that the slots</span></em><span dir="auto"> that were taken away from Mexican and international airlines in 2022 have already been returned to them. Furthermore, he confirmed that there are no dedicated cargo planes involved in this arrangement, although if one requests it, </span><strong><span dir="auto">the AFAC (Federal Civil Aviation Agency) will evaluate its potential landing at the Mexico City International Airport (AICM)</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“We haven’t received any requests from any cargo companies. They would have to submit their request, and AFAC has the directives, and as soon as we receive a request, we will forward it to the agency,” he explained.</span></p></blockquote>

<p><span dir="auto">It is worth remembering that the federal government, when it was headed by Andrés Manuel López Obrador, decreed saturation at the AICM in 2022, so the operations went from 61 to 52 and later from 52 to 43, until May 2025, when they increased to 44 and </span><strong><span dir="auto">recently the increase to 46 was ordered, a measure that came into effect on June 1</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Padilla Olmos indicated that </span><strong><span dir="auto">granting a </span><em><span dir="auto">slot</span></em><span dir="auto"> means 1.2 million additional passengers per year</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , so it is expected that with the increase to 46 operations, 2026 will close with close to 49 million travelers.</span></p>

<p><span dir="auto">He recalled that </span><strong><span dir="auto">on May 15, takeoff and landing slots were assigned for the upcoming winter season</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , “some were confiscated for misuse, that is done by the AFAC, and they are told what the assignment list is, what they cancel and what they are going to use and an operational reserve is generated that we take to the Slot Convention (held in Bangkok, Thailand, from June 9 to 11).”</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">He explained that </span><strong><span dir="auto">a reservation of 2,300 </span><em><span dir="auto">slots</span></em></strong><span dir="auto"> was achieved , plus the increase, so there were 5,600 new operations.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“That’s something we’ll see reflected through October, November, and December.

<p><span dir="auto">In that regard, he emphasized that American Airlines requested more operations because it anticipates a greater increase in winter; additionally, Aeromexico, Volaris and Viva are requesting to increase flights, as they will start new routes to Latin America.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“Of those, 1,100 will be new operations; most already fly here, but they will increase routes,” he explained.</span></p></blockquote>

<p><a href="https://www.aeromexico.com/new/es-mx"><span dir="auto">Grupo Aeroméxico</span></a><span dir="auto"> has formed a strategic alliance with </span><a href="https://www.grupobimbo.com/es"><span dir="auto">Grupo Bimbo</span></a><span dir="auto"> through which </span><strong><span dir="auto">it will promote the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel</span></strong><span dir="auto"> (SAF) in its corporate and business travel in Latin America.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">With this alliance, the first of its kind in the region, both </span><strong><span dir="auto">companies combine capabilities, vision and commitment to accelerate the reduction of emissions through the use of SAF</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , joining efforts to move towards more sustainable aviation.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">The reduction of emissions will be certified through internationally recognized mechanisms for the allocation and traceability of the SAF.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“This alliance reflects how collaboration can accelerate the transition to more sustainable aviation in Mexico and Latin America, driving concrete actions to reduce emissions in key activities such as business travel. The transition will only be possible through a network of partners committed to significantly reducing the environmental impact of their entire value chain and moving toward long-term goals for 2050. This agreement sets a precedent in the region and demonstrates that it is possible to move toward concrete, measurable solutions aligned with global climate challenges,” said Karen Farías, Director of Sustainability &amp; ESG at Aeroméxico.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">In this way, </span><strong><span dir="auto">both companies will contribute to the mitigation of greenhouse gases;</span></strong><span dir="auto"> in the case of the airline, by reducing Scope 1 emissions generated by fuel use; while Grupo Bimbo will reduce its Scope 3 emissions, generated by business travel. This joint effort reinforces the long-term decarbonization goals of both organizations and consolidates their leadership in corporate sustainability.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“We have a clear goal for 2050: for Grupo Bimbo to be a net-zero carbon emissions company. To achieve this, initiatives like the one we have today with Aeroméxico contribute to this goal, which requires the joint work of all stakeholders throughout our value chain,” said Alejandra Vázquez, Global Director of Sustainability at Grupo Bimbo.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">Furthermore, David Hernández, Global Purchasing Director at Grupo Bimbo, stated that “this alliance with Aeroméxico demonstrates how collaboration with strategic partners can help us reduce emissions beyond our direct operations and tangibly advance towards our goal of net-zero emissions by 2050.”</span></p>
<p><strong><span dir="auto">This collaboration represents a milestone for the airline industry in Mexico and Latin America</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , reflecting the commitment and vision of both organizations in integrating sustainability into their business models and corporate strategies; as well as in adopting tangible solutions to move towards a low-carbon economy.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Regarding Aeromexico, this initiative will allow it to continue moving towards its goal of net zero emissions by 2050, strengthening its leadership as one of the main drivers of the viability of sustainable aviation fuels in the region.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Currently, </span><strong><span dir="auto">SAF is considered the leading solution available for reducing air transport emissions</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , as it allows for up to an 80% reduction in carbon emissions compared to conventional fossil fuels. It is produced from renewable raw materials such as organic waste and has the necessary certifications for its use, making it compatible with the current airline fleet.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Therefore, the </span><strong><span dir="auto">initiative seeks to strengthen a culture of sustainability</span></strong><span dir="auto"> both within organizations and in society, promoting greater awareness of the importance of decarbonization. It is also part of Grupo Bimbo&#8217;s comprehensive decarbonization strategy, which addresses various aspects of the value chain, from agriculture to logistics and energy.</span></p>

<p><span dir="auto">After the United States government announced yesterday the cancellation of 13 routes by Mexican airlines to that country from the  </span><a href="https://www.aicm.com.mx/"><span dir="auto">Mexico City International Airport (AICM)</span></a><span dir="auto">  and  </span><a href="https://aifa.aero/"><span dir="auto">Felipe Ángeles Airport (AIFA)</span></a><span dir="auto"> , </span><strong><span dir="auto">the president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, rejected the decision of the northern neighbor and described the measure as &#8220;unfounded&#8221;</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">In her morning press conference this Wednesday, Sheinbaum said that she instructed Foreign Minister Juan Ramón de la Fuente to </span><strong><span dir="auto">request an urgent meeting with the U.S. Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, and the head of the </span><a href="https://www.usa.gov/es/agencias/departamento-de-transporte"><span dir="auto">U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT)</span></a><span dir="auto"> , Sean Duffy, to review the decision and demand formal explanations</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Sheinbaum defended the transfer of cargo operations from Mexico City International Airport (AICM) to the Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA) as a sovereign decision, based on security and civil protection criteria due to AICM&#8217;s saturation. </span><strong><span dir="auto">She asserted that cargo companies, including those from the United States, are satisfied operating from AIFA</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">He also requested that the </span><a href="https://www.gob.mx/antimonopolio"><span dir="auto">National Antitrust Commission (CNA)</span></a><span dir="auto"> conduct a technical analysis </span><strong><span dir="auto">to determine whether the DOT provisions are intended to benefit other airlines</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<h4><strong><span dir="auto">Reactions from the airline industry</span></strong></h4>
<p><span dir="auto">The DOT order has generated concern among Mexican airlines and industry unions. </span><a href="https://www.vivaaerobus.com/es-mx/"><span dir="auto">Viva Aerobus </span></a><strong><span dir="auto">reported that it is evaluating the impact of the measure on its operations from AIFA (Felipe Ángeles International Airport), whose routes beginning in November will be affected</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , including Los Angeles, Chicago, Orlando, Austin, and Dallas, among others. However, the airline clarified that flights from other airports and AICM (Mexico City International Airport) to the United States will not be affected. </span><strong><span dir="auto">The airline is confident that dialogue between authorities will lead to a solution</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><a href="https://www.volaris.com/"><span dir="auto">Volaris,</span></a><span dir="auto"> for its part, considered that the cargo regulations would have a “marginal effect” on its operations. However, </span><strong><span dir="auto">it confirmed that the order prevents the approval of its new route between Mexico City International Airport (AICM) and Newark, New Jersey, scheduled to begin on November 2.</span></strong><span dir="auto"> The airline is in contact with the </span><a href="https://www.gob.mx/sct"><span dir="auto">Ministry of Infrastructure, Communications and Transportation (SICT)</span></a><span dir="auto"> to explore alternatives.  </span><a href="https://www.aeromexico.com/es-mx"><span dir="auto">Aeroméxico</span></a><span dir="auto"> has not yet issued a statement on the matter.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">For its part, the </span><a href="https://web.aspa.org.mx/"><span dir="auto">Mexican Air Pilots Association (ASPA) </span></a><strong><span dir="auto">expressed its “deep concern” about the implications of the order</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , which includes a proposal to prohibit cargo transport on combined flights from Mexico City International Airport (AICM). The organization </span><strong><span dir="auto">warned that these provisions could affect air connectivity, the competitiveness of the national aviation sector, and thousands of jobs</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">While the </span><a href="https://portal.colegiodepilotos.org/sessions/sign-in"><span dir="auto">Mexican College of Airline Pilots (CPAM)</span></a><span dir="auto"> expressed its concern regarding the measures, noting that they severely affect connectivity between the two countries, and that </span><strong><span dir="auto">the revocation of routes from AIFA and AICM impacts major Mexican airlines, putting thousands of jobs at risk</span></strong><span dir="auto"> . The organization urged the Mexican government to </span><strong><span dir="auto">reconsider the decree that expelled air cargo from AICM</span></strong><span dir="auto"> and proposed establishing a technical working group with all stakeholders in the sector to “restore the confidence of our trading partners.”</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that next Friday she will meet with representatives from Aeromexico, Volaris, and Viva Aerobus to learn their positions and move towards a solution through dialogue and understanding.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">It&#8217;s worth recalling that on October 28, the DOT announced the cancellation of 13 scheduled routes from Mexico to the United States operated by Mexican airlines from AIFA and AICM. </span><strong><span dir="auto">According to the DOT, the measure was taken due to Mexico&#8217;s failure to comply with the Air Transport Agreement signed in 2015</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>

<p><span dir="auto">Since he was a child, </span><strong><span dir="auto">Cuitláhuac Gutiérrez</span></strong><span dir="auto"> grew up watching airplanes take off as if they were promises. On each flight, he saw the echoes of his father&#8217;s work at </span><a href="https://www.aeromexico.com/es-mx"><span dir="auto">Aeroméxico</span></a><span dir="auto"> and the beginning of a story that, although fraught with turbulence, would lead him to pilot one of the most important organizations in the Mexican aviation industry: the </span><a href="https://canaero.org.mx/"><strong><span dir="auto">National Chamber of Air Transport (Canaero)</span></strong></a><span dir="auto"> . &#8220;I grew up with Aeroméxico and the industry,&#8221; he recalls with a mix of nostalgia and determination. &#8220;I studied Aviation Electronics and Communications as my first professional degree, and at that time, Aerovías de México was the breeding ground for training technicians and professionals.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">His destiny seemed clear, but the path became complicated. He failed to secure a position as a technician, and, between disappointment and curiosity, he changed course to International Relations. &#8220;In my disappointment with the airline industry, I said: now I&#8217;ll become a diplomat,&#8221; he confesses. But fate insisted on keeping him in the air: upon completing his studies, </span><strong><span dir="auto">Mexicana de Aviación opened its doors to him in the Market Research department in 1998.</span></strong><span dir="auto"> It was the beginning of a journey that would transform his life.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">For 12 years, </span><a href="https://www.mexicana.gob.mx/"><span dir="auto">Mexicana</span></a><span dir="auto"> was his school and platform. There he learned the complexity of a sector that combines engineering, economics, diplomacy, and strategy. In 2010, he returned to the place where it all began: Aeroméxico. “ </span><strong><span dir="auto">I left Mexicana without knowing what was going to happen and came to Aeroméxico because it&#8217;s where my father had worked</span></strong><span dir="auto"> . I had to redefine the alliance strategy, which at the time was </span><a href="https://es.delta.com/mx/es"><span dir="auto">Delta</span></a><span dir="auto"> limited to a codeshare,” he says. His work helped lay the foundation for a relationship that years later would give rise to a historic cross-border alliance.</span></p>

<p><span dir="auto">Aviation, like life, doesn&#8217;t fly in a straight line. A downgrade in air safety by the United States put the country in jeopardy, but also opened a new opportunity for him: the vice presidency of Operations at </span><a href="https://www.skyteam.com/en"><span dir="auto">SkyTeam</span></a><span dir="auto"> , a global airline alliance comprising Aeroméxico, Delta, </span><a href="https://wwws.airfrance.com.mx/"><span dir="auto">Air France</span></a><span dir="auto"> , and </span><a href="https://www.koreanair.com/?hl=es"><span dir="auto">Korean Air</span></a><span dir="auto"> . &#8221; </span><strong><span dir="auto">We accepted the challenge and my family and I left</span></strong><span dir="auto"> . I was in charge of network development, generating greater connectivity, more codeshares, and seeking out new products,&#8221; he recalls. His time at SkyTeam consolidated his global vision and his skill at negotiating in the skies of air diplomacy.</span></p>
<p><strong><span dir="auto">In 2016, his career took him to a different, but equally strategic, arena: </span></strong><strong><span dir="auto">representing the </span><a href="https://www.iata.org/"><span dir="auto">International Air Transport Association (IATA)</span></a><span dir="auto"> in Mexico</span></strong><span dir="auto"> . “It was a challenging job, a school where you learn everything: commercial, operational, safety, environmental, and infrastructure issues,” he says. From that position, he experienced the cancellation of the Texcoco airport, the change of government, and the political storm that engulfed aviation. “We were there at the moment when aviation was at the center of the storm,” he says with a mixture of caution and pride.</span></p>

<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">And just when it seemed the skies couldn&#8217;t get any more uncertain, the COVID-19 pandemic hit. At IATA, and in close coordination with Canaero, Gutiérrez was one of the voices pushing to keep the country&#8217;s air borders open, a decision that allowed the country to regain connectivity faster than other nations. &#8220;At IATA, we sat down to figure out how to help. In the end, I took over the operation of the chamber without employees, and the position of general director of Canaero and IATA Country Manager. In the face of all the airlines,&#8221; he recalls.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">Those months marked a turning point. He oversaw the redesign of the airspace, the industry&#8217;s adaptation to the new </span><a href="https://aifa.aero/"><span dir="auto">Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA),</span></a><span dir="auto"> and collaborated with the </span><a href="https://www.gob.mx/defensa"><span dir="auto">Ministry of National Defense (Defensa)</span></a><span dir="auto"> on the operational planning of the airport system. </span><strong><span dir="auto">&#8220;We adapted the industry to its new reality,&#8221; he says</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">In 2022, he returned once again to Aeroméxico, this time as Senior Vice President of Government and Industry Affairs. &#8220;If I&#8217;m coming back, it means I&#8217;ve done something right,&#8221; he says calmly. His third stint at the airline confirmed his place in an industry where permanence depends as much on technique as on poise.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">At the beginning of 2025, Cuitláhuac Gutiérrez took over as Canaero&#8217;s leader with a clear mission: to rebuild the sector&#8217;s representativeness and prepare the industry for its upcoming expansion. &#8220;It was time to push Canaero further,&#8221; he says. Under his leadership, </span><a href="https://www.vivaaerobus.com/es-mx/"><span dir="auto">Viva Aerobus</span></a><span dir="auto"> , </span><a href="https://tarmexico.com/#/"><span dir="auto">TAR</span></a><span dir="auto"> , and </span><a href="https://flyaerus.com/"><span dir="auto">Aerus</span></a><span dir="auto"> returned , and only </span><a href="https://www.volaris.com/"><span dir="auto">Volaris</span></a><span dir="auto"> remains to complete the fleet. &#8220;We hope Volaris will be back soon and we can finally include all the national airlines,&#8221; he emphasized.</span></p>

<p><span dir="auto">His vision goes beyond the short term.

<p><span dir="auto">For him, flying isn&#8217;t just a metaphor for success: it&#8217;s a way of life. Because every career climb, every turbulence overcome, and every controlled landing confirm that his destiny was always in the skies.</span></p>

<p><span>The Aeroméxico-Delta alliance announced that </span><strong><span>starting October 29</span></strong><span> , </span><a href="https://www.aeromexico.com/es-mx"><span>Aeroméxico</span></a><span> will begin operating direct flights from Mexico City to </span><strong><span>San Juan, Puerto Rico</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<p><span>With four weekly flights, this route will </span><strong><span>offer more than 1,300 seats</span></strong><span> and will be operated by 737 MAX-8 aircraft, although during the peak winter season (December 18–January 4) it will offer one daily flight.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span> &#8220;With this, the Aeroméxico-Delta alliance continues to strengthen, connecting more key destinations between Mexico and the United States,&#8221; said Giancarlo Mulinelli, senior vice president of Global Sales at Aeroméxico, in a statement.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>This new service joins the series of openings the Mexican airline has made since 2024 and so far in 2025, through which it has managed to reach new destinations in the United States such as Atlanta, Boston, Washington, Tampa, Phoenix, Philadelphia, among others. San Juan, </span><strong><span>Puerto Rico, will become Aeroméxico&#8217;s 27th destination in the United States</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>“Puerto Rico continues to position itself as the ideal destination in the Caribbean. The opening of a new direct connection expands the investment landscape and allows us to continue promoting the many tourism attractions and business opportunities we offer,” said Jennifer González Colón, Governor of Puerto Rico.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>He explained that this route, whose </span><strong><span>direct economic impact is estimated at $13.5 million per year</span></strong><span> , will further strengthen trade ties between Mexico and Puerto Rico, which currently exceed $1.5 billion annually.</span></p>
<p><span>Currently, the Aeroméxico-Delta alliance operates more than 60 routes between the two countries, with more than 90 daily operations, and has transported more than 50 million passengers since 2017.</span></p>
