The cooperation will start on 1 February 2011, when Continental will place its code on Aeromar-operated flights between Mexico City and 13 destinations in Mexico.

This latest development follows the launch of frequent-flyer cooperation between the two airlines, which commenced in August 2010, and allows Continental OnePass members to accrue and redeem miles on all Aeromar-operated flights. In addition, Continental's international first- and business-class passengers, Presidents Club members and Star Alliance Gold customers have access to Aeromar's Salon Diamante lounge in Mexico City.
