About
VivaAerobus, also trading as Aeroenlaces Nacionales, S.A is a Mexican low-cost airline, owned by the Mexican bus group IAMSA. The airline began operations in November 2006 and initially flew from Monterrey to many Mexican domestic locations and by 2007 had announced its services to Austin Texas. However, this particular service ended in 2009.
The airline operates at 4 airports: Cancún International Airport (CUN), Guadalajara International Airport (GDL), Mexico City Airport (MEX) and Monterrey International Airport (MTY).
It was originally launched in 2006 and was co-owned by Mexico City-based passenger transport conglomerate IAMSA and Irelandia Aviation (founders of Ryanair). In December 2016, IAMSA bought out Irelandia Aviation’s 49% interest in the company, making the airline 100% Mexican-owned. As part of that transaction, IAMSA sold its 25% stake in Colombian airline Viva Colombia to Irelandia Aviation.
The airline flies to 40 destinations in Mexico and the United States.
