Aerolineas returns to MEX! Anyone know when the original service started? From what I recall, in the 50s and 60s, MEX and EZE were linked by Trans Canada, but don't know if I'm correct.

Welcome back AR!
There are billboards throughout Mexico City advertising the EZE-LIM-MEX service and a fare of U.S.$499 is quoted in those billboards. Let's see how many pax AR can steal from MX.

I'm on my way to MEX to catch up with Guerra and Quetzalcoatl! APM team will be there ready for the pictures! A shame it's not a 340 or 747 service as it used to be!

WOO! This is great news for EZE, LIM and MEX! AR now has an AM and PM flight to EZE from Lima. I hope that someone gets pictures. If any of you A.netters fly EZE-LIM-MEX you'll be stopping in Lima during the day, make sure you get pictures!! Good luck to AR on this venture, hopefully someone can give us the loadfactors.

Hola a todos!
I thought Aerolineas already flew to MEX. I was born and lived in Argentina for 15 years and I always thought that Aerolineas flew to MEX. One question though, I have realized Aerolineas has decreased its destinations to Europe from EZE in the last few years. I remember before Aerolineas used to fly to cities like Zurich, Paris, London, etc from EZE. How come those flights are no longer excecuted from EZE?

Just talk with APM team, they are now at Mexico City international airport waiting for flight AR1368 to arrived but nothing! Anyone knows if the flight is on time, or is it cancelled or what's the problem?? I can't find any information.
Anyone knows something?
Greetings

Airborn86, yeah Aerolineas used to fly to MEX using B747-200, i think that Aerolineas stop flying to MEX beacuse of 2 probable reasons:
1. There was no PAX demand.
2. The critical economy problem in Argentina
however i maybe lying to you, i dont know the exact reason, maybe Ghost77 knows what happend.

I'm hearing from a travel agent, that the freaking flight is booked through march. Plus their Y fare is $640 USD round trip so...they really entered the market without any illusions and agressively

AR385:
Funny you should say that, since on the night before the inaugural service, the flight still had available seats in both "Ejecutiva" and "Turista", or at least on AR's website...
Any confirmation on whether it was an A310 or A340?

Congratulations AR for this new service, and the best luck in the years to come. I really hope that you can "gain" more and more passengers each day [not "stealing" from MX as EddieDude said][just kidding Eduardo].
As soon as anyone in MX has a (some) picture(s), please share it/them with us!
