Aeromexico plans to begin nonstop flights between Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport and Mexico City on June 17, 2027, adding a direct international travel option for southeast Louisiana.
The airport announced the route November 9. Flights are planned for Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays, using Embraer 190 aircraft with 99 seats.
The route would restore a connection that Aeromexico operated from July 2009 until summer 2010, according to a separate New Orleans City Council announcement.
Travelers will also be able to connect through Aeromexico’s Mexico City hub to other destinations in Mexico and beyond, subject to available routes and schedules.
The airport directed travelers to Aeromexico and Delta for reservations. It did not announce fares.
