Jalisco is seeking new Aeroméxico routes to and from Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta after Gov. Pablo Lemus met with Grupo Aeroméxico CEO Andrés Conesa on June 10.
The talks focused on stronger international air connectivity, including possible transatlantic service to Europe and future links toward Asia. No destination, start date, frequency, aircraft plan, or ticket sale has been announced.
Puerto Vallarta was included in the discussion, but the proposal remains a state-level route-development effort, not a confirmed flight schedule for PVR.
No schedule has been published
In a June 10 public post, Lemus said the meeting aimed to strengthen air connectivity between the Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta airports.
The wording matters to local travelers because Aeroméxico already offers Puerto Vallarta itineraries to long-haul destinations via connecting flights. PVDN checked Aeroméxico’s public flight pages on Friday, June 12. The airline showed bookable itineraries from Puerto Vallarta and from Guadalajara, but its public new-routes page did not show a newly announced PVR-Europe or PVR-Asia route.
Vallarta and Guadalajara are in different positions
The route talks come as the two Jalisco airports are moving in different directions. In its May 2026 passenger report, Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico reported Guadalajara’s total passenger traffic up 7.1% from May 2025. Puerto Vallarta’s total traffic fell 14.4%.
The pressure is sharper on the international side. GAP reported that international passengers in Puerto Vallarta were down 26.5% in May from a year earlier.
That split gives the Aeroméxico talks a different meaning for each airport. Guadalajara is being discussed in terms of passenger growth. Puerto Vallarta is being named as the airport tries to recover lost international volume.
PVDN has tracked that pressure in recent airport coverage, including our reports on new Volaris routes now flying to Vallarta, the new 2026 route mix at Puerto Vallarta Airport, and earlier coverage of Puerto Vallarta airport traffic weakness.
What local readers should watch
The useful sign will be a formal airline announcement that includes the city pair, start date, weekly frequency, and whether the flight is nonstop or sold through a connection.
For now, the Aeroméxico talks should be read as a route-development negotiation. They are not booking advisories, and travelers should rely on published schedules when planning trips.
