The New Orleans mayor and the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport announced Monday that Aeromexico-Delta would add new nonstop service connecting New Orleans directly with Mexico City International Airport.
The nonstop flights to Mexico City will soon be available, and city officials say this marks a significant milestone for the airport.
Aeromexico will operate the new service, which is set to begin in June with four weekly flights.
The flights will be on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
Officials said these will be the first nonstop direct flights to Latin America from Armstrong International in years.
