Solution to US-Mexico aviation dispute seen in coming days
Jul 22, 2025 9:36 AM

MEXICO CITY, July 22 (Reuters) - Mexican airline Volaris

believes a resolution to a dispute between the U.S. and Mexico

on aviation could arrive in the coming days, the carrier's CEO

said on Tuesday.

On Saturday, the U.S. Department of Transportation

rolled out orders requiring Mexican airlines submit their flight

schedules and

threatening to reject requests

if the Mexican government did not address U.S. concerns

over flight changes in Mexico City.

Under the previous government, Mexico

moved cargo flights

from the main capital airport to a newer, farther-away site

while also

cutting passenger flight slots

.

"We feel tremendously confident that the solution is

going to be here in the next few days," Volaris CEO Enrique

Beltranena told analysts in the firm's second-quarter results

call.

The executive added that he remained "confident that

both governments will reach a logical and mutually beneficial

agreement."

President Claudia Sheinbaum, in her daily morning press

conference on Tuesday said that the Mexico and U.S. would kick

off talks on the issue and that some compromises could be made.

"(The U.S.) is making a set of particular requests,

we're analyzing them to see whether they can be addressed or

whether an alternative can be proposed."

However, she cautioned that the new airport where

flights were moved - the Felipe Angeles International Airport

(AIFA) - was also a solution itself.

Sheinbaum's mentor, former President Andres Manuel Lopez

Obrador, overhauled the capital airspace during his term,

arguing that the main airport was oversaturated and that the

AIFA, which he had built, would alleviate the pressure.
