Good call, its an untapped resource. UA doesn't fly there, either does AA, CO does, but with a connection in IAH.

Mariner:
Veracruz would not be a tourist destination but more of an ethnic/friends & family route.

Yes CO fly IAH-VER in a EMB 145.
Yes, Veracruz has a lot to offer as a turistic spot, the beach is not as beautiful as Cancun or Cabo, but thre is much to do besides go to the beach in VER.
Veracruz is Mexico´s oldest city, it has a fort from the XVI century, a lot music in the streets, and not far away you can find archeological sites like the "TajÃn ruins".
The mexican tourist board should promote more Veracruz abroad.

The map on the Mexicana website is a bit out of date, I think. It doesn't show Denver at all, but they do fly there.
GALLO MEXICO:
(a) Veracruz is top of my list for places to visit.
(b) Frontier is teaming up with the Mexican Tourist Authority for a big push on the Mexican routes. I'd guess they'd tell F9 what routes they they can sell the best.
It seems clear that Frontier regards Mexico as fertile ground. What isn't clear is whether they see it as a "one way street". Obviously they're taking US tourists to Mexico. It would be interesting to know how much traffic they think they can pick up from Mexico.

I think the only airline to fly to MTY non stop from LAX is Aviacsa. F9 would be very smart to add on service to more tourist destinations in Mexico. Right now to go to Mexico from DEN I think that you must stop in Dfw on American Airlines. Or on Continental and stop in Houston.

Mariner,
Mexicana has a daily service between Mexico City and Denver. It runs an A319 six days of the week. MEX-DEN is an A320 on Saturday and DEN-MEX is an A320 on Sunday.
UA does not fly to MEX from DEN. That flight is codeshare with the above MX flight.

I wish F9 the best in ZIH! As some members say here, ZIH it's a seasonal airport... there are a lot of airlines that go into ZIH specially in fall/winter but specially a little bit more in winter....
That airport it's very similar to ACA with fall/winter flights... and also some airlines increase their capacity.. like NW from A320 to 757s and AA from MD80s to 757 and AWA from 737s to A320s or 757s....
