With this reopening, the airline reaffirms its commitment to expand its connectivity network to link Mexico with the most important destinations in the world, its representatives said last August during the announcement.
Aeromexico began operations in Cuba in 2011 and stopped in 2020 as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the health restrictions derived from it.
