Mexico’s aviation industry has seen a strong performance in the first seven months of 2025, as the country’s leading airlines—Aeroméxico, Viva, and Volaris—reported a collective increase in passenger traffic. A total of 44.5 million passengers were transported by these carriers, representing a 4.62% growth compared to the same period in 2024, when the number stood at 42.56 million. This growth highlights the recovery of the Mexican aviation sector, which has been bolstered by both strong domestic demand and growing international travel.
In particular, Viva increased its domestic capacity by 8.5% and boosted its international capacity by 17.5% in July. This strategic capacity expansion allowed Viva to further solidify its position as a leader in both domestic and international travel. While its domestic routes posted a robust load factor of 89.6%, its international routes saw a slightly lower figure of 83.8%, showing room for improvement in its long-haul operations.
However, there are still several challenges ahead. The aviation industry continues to face external pressures such as fluctuating fuel prices, geopolitical factors, and ongoing operational disruptions. These challenges will likely affect all players in the market, and the ability to maintain growth will depend on how effectively these airlines can manage these external factors.
