Nashville Gets First Nonstop Flights to Mexico City

Nashville International Airport will host its first nonstop commercial flights to Mexico City on June 13, 2027. The Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority announced the new route on Monday, confirming that Aeromexico will operate the service under the Aeromexico-Delta Alliance.

The airline will run four flights per week between the two cities. The inaugural arrival from Mexico City International Airport is scheduled for June 13, 2027. The first departure from Nashville for the Mexican capital will leave the following day on June 14.

Aeromexico will use Embraer 190 aircraft for these routes. The planes carry 99 passengers in a two-by-two seating layout. This configuration eliminates middle seats, placing every traveler in either a window or aisle position. Eleven seats are designated as premier cabin, while the remaining 88 are standard economy.

Current pricing on the Aeromexico website lists a one-way fare at approximately $775. The new route connects Nashville to Mexico’s largest metropolitan area, which has a population of about 22 million. That figure places the city among the 15 most populous in the world.

Mexico City serves as a major hub for Aeromexico’s network, which includes 113 routes. The airline flies to more than 100 destinations within Mexico and 23 other countries across three continents. The historic city, originally founded as Tenochtitlan in 1325, features UNESCO-listed sites such as the Historic Center and the National Museum of Anthropology.

Doug Kreulen, president and CEO of the Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority, called the addition a milestone for international travel from Middle Tennessee. Ivan Vukov, Aeromexico’s U.S. sales manager, described Nashville as an exciting addition to the carrier’s growing American network. The service will strengthen regional ties and provide direct access to destinations throughout Latin America.
