WASHINGTON, Oct 28 (Reuters) - The U.S. Department of
Transportation on Tuesday said it has revoked approval for 13
current or planned routes by Mexican carriers into the United
States and tentatively canceled all combined passenger and cargo
flights by Mexican airlines to the United States from Felipe
Angeles International Airport.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy's order cancels current
or planned flights by Aeromexico, Volaris and Viva Aerobus and
freezes growth of Mexican carriers' combined passenger and cargo
services - known as "belly cargo" - between the United States
and Benito Juarez International Airport.
Duffy said Mexico "illegally canceled and froze U.S. carrier
flights for three years without consequences."
The DOT said Mexico's continued non-compliance "may impact
travel plans for American citizens. Passengers should contact
their carrier for specific re-accommodation information."
