AeroMexico to Expand Las Vegas Service on January 29 with Twice Weekly Flights to Mexico City.

* Las Vegas Stands Out as Top Destination for Travelers From Mexico

* Strong Dollar Makes Mexico Even More Affordable Destination

HOUSTON -- AeroMexico, the global airline of Latin America, has announced today that it will link two of North America's busiest and most popular travel destinations when it begins non-stop flights between Las Vegas and Mexico City on January 29. Twice weekly flights will be offered on Thursdays and Sundays. In Mexico City, travelers also will be able to connect with AeroMexico flights to 40 destinations throughout Mexico and cities in 12 other countries in Latin America, Europe and Asia. The airline currently offers weekly flights between Las Vegas and Monterrey, Mexico.

Frank Galan, Vice President, U.S. Division, AeroMexico, said, "AeroMexico is excited about expanding service in Las Vegas, which is a top destination for people in Mexico. This route will also appeal to people in Las Vegas who appreciate quality travel and entertainment experiences at great prices. With the current strength of the U.S. dollar to the peso, Mexico is definitely one of North America's most affordable destinations."

AeroMexico's new Las Vegas - Mexico City route will serve the travel needs and interests of leisure and business travelers in both markets, which are expected to remain strong in 2009. Las Vegas ranks as one of the top tourism destinations for people in Mexico, according to the United States-Mexico Chamber of Commerce. Passenger load factors on existing flights averaged 80 percent in 2008, a 17 percent increase over 2007, with more than 40,000 passengers traveling from Mexico to Las Vegas. Mexico is also one of the most popular travel destinations for people in the Las Vegas area, according to the Mexico Tourism Board. Additionally, more than 480,000 Las Vegas-area residents, representing more than 27 percent of the population, are of Hispanic or Latino origin.

Galan added, "AeroMexico is confident that our premier style of service at affordable rates will appeal to travelers in both Las Vegas and Mexico City. We see demand for our service in both the leisure and business travel sectors with the biggest opportunities in the international vacation market."

Flights will depart from McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas at 3:00 p.m. PST and arrive at Mexico City International Airport at 8:45 p.m. CST. Departures from Mexico City are at 12:05 p.m. CST with arrivals in Las Vegas at 2:00 p.m. PST.

The airline will offer the best value available on these routes with its competitive fares and premier style of service, which earned AeroMexico the "Best Airline in Mexico" award for 2008 from both Global Traveler and Business Traveler, two of the world's leading travel magazines.
