Volaris Set to Launch Two New Nonstop Destinations From SJC

Dec. 12, 2017

Ultra-low cost Mexican airline Volaris is growing at Mineta San José International Airport with the upcoming launch of nonstop service between San José and two cities in Mexico currently unserved by any airline at Silicon Valley’s airport. Volaris will introduce twice-weekly flights to Morelia beginning Dec. 15, with service offered on Fridays and Sundays. Zacatecas flights begin Dec. 18, and will operate on Mondays and Thursdays.

“For Volaris, a fundamental part of our business model is to bring families and friends together,” said Miguel Aguiñiga, director of market development at Volaris. “We accomplish that through a combination of better connectivity, low fares and an extensive route network. These new direct flights into San José, CA from the Mexican cities of Morelia and Zacatecas further expand the number of travel options for our Visiting Friends and Relatives (VFR) audience, as well as those who travel for business and vacation. As 2017 comes to an end, Volaris continues to grow and build the bridges that our customers need.”

“We’re excited about Volaris’ growth here at SJC,” said San José Director of Aviation John Aitken, “and we’re especially happy that we’ll be able to offer nonstop service to two more cities in Mexico that were previously unserved.”
