Volaris reported that its shareholders approved the business combination with Viva Aerobus , which will create the Más Vuelos Group , with which they seek to expand connectivity in Mexico and internationally .

In a statement sent to the Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV) , the airline detailed that at its General Assembly it reached a quorum of 93.7%, with 91.8% of the company’s outstanding share capital voting in favor of the combination, with no votes against and the rest abstaining .

“The approval of these resolutions by the shareholders represents an important milestone in the proposed transaction with Viva, to create an airline group with a more solid and efficient foundation to expand air transport and strengthen connectivity in Mexico and internationally,” he stated.

Peter Cerdá, regional vice president of the  International Air Transport Association (IATA) for the Americas, considered that the agreement between Volaris and Viva aims to offer a better service to passengers.

“Without a doubt, it’s a practice that’s carried out worldwide, and it’s done constantly. We’ve seen it in Europe, North America, and Latin America, so whether it’s commercial agreements or joint ventures , in the end, it’s the passenger who benefits,” he said in an interview with T21.

He added that in the case of Mexico it is an interesting opportunity , as is resolving the issue between Aeromexico and Delta, “so that the market is dynamic, has flexibility and so that when the conditions are right, the airlines can position themselves in the country for global connectivity.”

In December 2025, following the announcement of Volaris and Viva, Grupo Financiero Monex emphasized that the new group aims to generate economies of scale that reduce fleet ownership costs , improve access to capital and strengthen the financial profile, critical factors in an environment marked by pressures in the supply chain and increasing maintenance and engine costs.

“Both airlines emphasized that they will share an operating model based on point-to-point flights and low fares, which will facilitate commercial and technical integration. Compatibility in fleet, infrastructure, and reservation systems anticipates substantial synergies in costs and distribution. From our perspective, this move positions the group to compete more aggressively against regional and global rivals in a market where the recovery of air traffic and the expansion of tourism remain key catalysts,” he stated.

In its reports submitted to the Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV), Volaris stated that it transported 30,995,000 passengers in 2025 , a 5.2% year-over-year increase. Total revenue reached $3.038 billion, a 3.3% decrease compared to 2024.

Meanwhile, Viva transported 29,957,000 passengers in 2025 , an 8.2% increase compared to 2024. It also recorded revenues of $2.376 billion, a 7.3% decrease, although with a 6.5% increase in capacity.
