Overview
- Sheinbaum said she met again with national and foreign companies and industry associations involved in cargo operations at AIFA.
- The session follows more than a month of U.S. flight cancellations from AIFA that have affected freight activity at the Estado de México hub.
- U.S. authorities in late October revoked authorization for more than a dozen routes operated by Mexican airlines, citing what they called illegal cancellations of U.S. flights to Mexico.
- On November 17, Sheinbaum announced that Mexican airlines would cede some slots at Mexico City International Airport to U.S. carriers as a mitigation step.
- The presidency presented the meetings as ongoing coordination with operators to address the operational impacts on AIFA’s cargo services.
