As part of a comprehensive strategy to bolster passenger traffic between Mexico’s primary business and tourism hubs and the United States, Aeroméxico—in partnership with Delta Air Lines—has announced the return of its seasonal route connecting Monterrey with New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). This service will be available from June 11 through August 30, 2026.
This operation is not an isolated development; it is integrated into the Mexican flag carrier’s broader seasonal flight offerings for the 2026 summer season, which includes strategic routes such as Guadalajara–Seattle and Cancún–Raleigh-Durham. This move reinforces Monterrey’s position as a key international connecting node for Mexico’s northern region.
Operational Details and Frequencies
The service will be operated entirely by Aeroméxico with five weekly frequencies, representing a capacity of over 1,600 seats per week.
