Aeromar is giving southern Arizonans more opportunity to connect with Mexico – and Mexicans more opportunities to do business and shop in the Tucson region – by adding Wednesdays to its schedule of flights at Tucson International Airport.
The new Wednesday flights, which start this week on May 3, mean business and leisure travelers can now fly five days a week – except on Tuesdays and Saturdays – between Tucson and three of Mexico’s most important cities: Hermosillo, Culiacán and Guadalajara.
“We look forward to welcoming more people from Mexico to come shop, play and stay in Tucson,” said Felipe Garcia, who as executive vice president of Visit Tucson oversees Mexico marketing. “This responds to people we’ve heard from asking for the convenience of being able to fly more days of the week.”
This is the second change Aeromar has made to its schedule since introducing flights from Tucson to Mexico last October. In March, in response to passenger demand, the airline added service to Culiacán and shortened the flying time to Guadalajara.
Bonnie Allin, president and CEO of the Tucson Airport Authority, said “These flights are an important addition that will help the economies of regions on both sides of the border and further strengthen the long-established and important ties between southern Arizona and the states of Sonora, Sinaloa and Jalisco.”
