Volaris, the ultra low cost Mexican airline operating in Mexico, the United States and Central America, strengthens its international expansion strategy and its commitment to unite families and stimulate commercial ties between Mexico and the United States with its new direct route between Fresno and Guanajuato with the lowest fares and the best on-board service.
“Our main objective in Volaris is that more people travel more. With the opening of this new route we are fulfilling this vision, by getting more people to visit their loved ones, especially during the December holiday period. This new route will help boost trade and the creation of new businesses - small and medium - between these two regions,” said Miguel Aguiñiga, Director of Market Development and Distribution of Volaris.
In addition to being an economic and cultural center, Hispanics are the biggest ethnic group in California, making up around 40% of their population. Fresno’s population in particular, is nearly 50% percent Hispanic or Latino, making it extremelly important to Volaris in furthering its mission to unite friends and family on both sides of the border. “Guanajuato and California are two of the main economies of North America. With this route, we connect Mexicans living in the central and northern parts of California with one of the regions of the greatest economic dynamism currently in the country,” said Aguiñiga.
