American Airlines adds 30th Mexico destination
American Airlines is set to offer a record-breaking schedule to Mexico with more flights, seats and destinations than any other US airline, it says.
American announced the upcoming launch to Puerto Escondido — the airline’s 30th destination in Mexico from December 3.
“With the announcement of American’s 30th destination in Mexico we further solidify our position as the leading U.S. airline,” said José A. Freig, American’s VP of International, Contact Center Operations and Service Recovery.
“Puerto Escondido is quickly becoming a top destination for travelers. We are confident that our new service from Dallas-Fort Worth will offer a unique part of Mexico.”
Located on the coast of Oaxaca, Puerto Escondido is known for its beaches, nightlife and more.
American will operate year-round service twice a week from Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Mexico is the most popular international destination for travel from the US.
Last month, American launched new service to Tampico and in November, American will offer the only international service from the state of Oklahoma with new flights to Cancun (CUN).
American launched service to three destinations in Mexico in 2024: Tijuana, Tulum and Veracruz.
