  • The 12 aircraft are in addition to the 28 that the airline announced last April.
  • These are the latest generation Boeing 737 MAX aircraft.

Aeromexico is working to continue adding new aircraft to its fleet and plans to add 12 new Boeing 737 MAX aircraft. The arrival is expected to begin next October.

These aircraft are in addition to the 28 that the company announced last April, making a
total of 40 new aircraft to increase its fleet, replace other aircraft and improve
connectivity.

“Aeromexico continues its strategy of having the safest, state-of-the-art, efficient, and
least polluting fleet. The additional new aircraft will allow us to continue boosting
connectivity in our main hubs to meet our customers’ demand with the best aircraft,
service, and a fare family that meets their travel needs,” said Nicolas Ferri, Aeromexico’s
Chief Commercial Officer.

The agreement to add these 12 aircraft is being negotiated with Dubai Aerospace
Enterprise (DAE) and is subject to the approval of the United States Court for the
Southern District of New York, in charge of Aeromexico’s Chapter 11 voluntary financial
restructuring process.

Aeromexico’s current fleet is comprised of 118 aircraft: 47 Embraer 190s, 53 Boeing 737s,
and 18 Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
