This alliance aims to streamline transatlantic travel, allowing passengers to fly with a single reservation and through-check baggage to their final destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Strategic Alliance for the Transatlantic Market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just months before the launch of the direct route between the capital of Nuevo Le\u00f3n and Spain, Iberia has strengthened its presence in Mexican territory. The primary objective is to offer a comprehensive connectivity network linking the country&#8217;s most significant airports with Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mar\u00eda Jes\u00fas L\u00f3pez Sol\u00e1s, Iberia\u2019s Commercial, Network Development, and Alliances Director, highlighted that this operation makes it easier for passengers from cities such as Tijuana to connect with European capitals like Paris or Rome seamlessly. For his part, Javier Su\u00e1rez, Viva\u2019s Vice President of Strategy, Planning, and Alliances, emphasized that European travelers will now have access to more than 30 domestic and international routes operated by Mexico&#8217;s most modern fleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2026\/03\/iberia-modifies-tokyo-route-schedule-for-2026-winter-season.html\">Iberia Modifies Tokyo Route Schedule for 2026 Winter Season<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connectivity Details and Destination Network<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This new agreement expands upon the existing collaboration between the two companies, which currently connects 20 cities via Mexico City International Airport (AICM). With the addition of Monterrey, customers can purchase tickets directly through Iberia\u2019s platform to fly to and from the following points:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>North and Northwest:<\/strong> Ciudad Ju\u00e1rez, Chihuahua, Ciudad Obreg\u00f3n, Culiac\u00e1n, Hermosillo, La Paz, Los Mochis, Mexicali, Mazatl\u00e1n, and Tijuana.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Central and Baj\u00edo:<\/strong> Mexico City (AICM and AIFA), Guadalajara, Guanajuato, Morelia, Puebla, Quer\u00e9taro, San Juan del Cabo, and Toluca.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>South and Southeast:<\/strong> Canc\u00fan, Cozumel, Huatulco, M\u00e9rida, Oaxaca, Puerto Escondido, Puerto Vallarta, Tampico, Tapachula, Tuxtla Guti\u00e9rrez, Tulum, Veracruz, and Villahermosa.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Operations and Capacity on the Monterrey-Madrid Route<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The commencement of direct flights between Monterrey and Madrid is scheduled for June 2. This route represents a milestone for the Spanish flag carrier, consolidating Mexico as the market with the highest seat capacity in all of Latin America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aircraft Specifications and Frequencies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Iberia will deploy its long-haul fleet to cover this route, utilizing aircraft equipped with advanced technology and multi-cabin configurations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Aircraft Model:<\/strong> Airbus A330-300.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Total Capacity:<\/strong> 292

flights.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With the opening of this second destination in the Mexican interior, the airline expects to exceed 820,000 available seats this year, reaffirming its commitment to connectivity between Spain and Mexican territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid
