Nashville International Airport Expands International Gateway with New Aeromexico–Delta Nonstop Mexico City Service

BNA's newest airline partner to launch four weekly nonstop flights in June 2027

Nashville, Tenn. (Nov. 9, 2026) — Nashville International Airport, also known as BNA, today announced that the Aeromexico–Delta Alliance will launch a new nonstop service between Nashville and Mexico City, establishing the airline's first-ever service to Music City and creating a new gateway between Middle Tennessee and the most populous city in North America.

“This is a significant milestone for Nashville International Airport as we welcome Aeromexico as our newest airline partner and continue to expand opportunities for international travel from Middle Tennessee,” said Doug Kreulen, president and CEO of the Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority (MNAA). “From the iconic Frida Kahlo Museum to the rich history of Tenochtitlan, Mexico City is one of the world’s great cultural capitals and a destination unlike any other. This new nonstop service will strengthen ties between our regions, provide new opportunities for business and leisure travelers, and offer convenient access to destinations throughout Mexico, Latin America and beyond.”

With the launch of this new nonstop service, Aeromexico continues to expand connectivity between the United States and Mexico. This year-round route will operate four times weekly, with the inaugural Aeromexico flight arriving from Mexico City on June 13, 2027. The first outbound flight from BNA will depart for Mexico City on June 14, 2027.

Aeromexico will serve the route with an Embraer 190 (E190) aircraft featuring 99 seats, including 11 in Premier cabin. The aircraft offers a comfortable 2-2 seating configuration, ensuring every passenger enjoys either an aisle or window seat, with no middle seats onboard.

Through its hub at Mexico City International Airport (MEX), Aeromexico operates a network of 113 routes, the most extensive in Mexico’s aviation market. The airline flies to more than 100 destinations across Mexico and 23 other countries, connecting three continents and providing Middle Tennesseans with expanded access to leisure, business and cultural destinations around the world.

“Nashville represents an exciting new addition to Aeromexico’s growing network in the United States. Starting in June, our four weekly nonstop flights will directly connect Nashville with Mexico City, while providing access to more than 100 destinations across our network. Through our Joint Cooperation Agreement with Delta, which will operate more than 80 year-round and seasonal routes between Mexico and the United States by the end of 2026, we continue to expand connectivity and create new opportunities for business and leisure travelers across both countries.”
