AeroMexico to Expand North American Operations With New Service to Toronto, San Francisco and Denver in Early 2009
Airline Launches First Canadian Service with Toronto Operations; San Francisco/Bay Area is Airline's Fourth California Market; Colorado Becomes Fifth State Served by AeroMexico in Western U.S.

AeroMexico, the global airline of Latin
America, has announced that it will expand its North American operations
significantly with new service to Toronto, Canada, San Francisco and Denver
in early 2009. Service in each market will include daily, non-stop flights
to Mexico City with connecting service to 40 destinations throughout Mexico
and cities in 12 other countries in Latin America, Europe and Asia. The
airline will offer the best value available on these routes with its
combination of competitive fares and a distinctive, premier style of
service. Attractively priced vacation packages, which include airfare,
hotel accommodations and rental car, will also be available through
AeroMexico Vacations.
Frank Galan, Vice President, U.S. Division, AeroMexico, said, "We are
expanding our North American operations to capitalize on growth
opportunities that have arisen due to shifts in service by other carriers
and increased market demand. We are very enthusiastic about AeroMexico's
growth and will continue to expand to new markets where it makes sense
based on customers' international travel needs."
Toronto Will Become Airline's First Canadian Market
Galan added, "Launching service in Canada is an important part of
AeroMexico's growth strategy for 2009. We expect strong demand both in
Toronto and in Mexico City for this service due to the increase in
international business and tourism between the two countries."
AeroMexico will launch daily, non-stop flights between Toronto and Mexico
City on February 2. Flights will depart from Toronto Pearson International
Airport at 9:00 a.m. EST and arrive at Mexico City International Airport at
1:00 p.m. CST. Departures from Mexico City are scheduled at 5:35 p.m. CST
with arrivals in Toronto at 11:05 p.m. EST.
San Francisco/Bay Area Will Become Airline's Fourth California Market
Galan said, "California has become AeroMexico's largest overall market in
the United States. Our upcoming San Francisco service reflects our
commitment to being a leader in meeting the state's international travel
needs to Mexico and beyond."
He added, "San Francisco, Los Angeles, Ontario and San Diego all have major
Hispanic/Latino populations with ties to Mexico; Mexico destinations
represent attractive vacation locations for California residents; and
California destinations are favorite vacation spots for people in Mexico.
International business is also growing between these markets and our new
flights support this exchange of goods and services."
AeroMexico will launch daily, non-stop flights between San Francisco and
Mexico City on February 2. Flights will depart from San Francisco
International Airport at 7:00 a.m. PST and will arrive at Mexico City
International Airport at 1:20 p.m. CST. Departures from Mexico City are
scheduled at 7:05 p.m. CST with arrivals in San Francisco at 10:15 p.m.
PST.
Denver Service Will Add Fifth State to AeroMexico's Western Region
Galan said, "We are excited about launching service to Denver because it
allows us to bring our distinctive service to the traveling public in a
fifth state in our Western region. Passenger traffic trends also indicate
that important, unmet demand exists for this service."
AeroMexico will launch daily, non-stop flights between Denver and Mexico
City on March 2. Flights will depart from Denver International Airport at
1:25 p.m. MST and will arrive at Mexico City International Airport at 6:20
p.m. CST. Departures from Mexico City are scheduled at 9:30 a.m. CST with
