Aeroméxico has announced plans to introduce a new direct flight between Mexico City and Milan, Italy, slated to commence in the spring of 2027. This route will connect Mexico City International Airport (AICM) with Milan-Malpensa Airport (MXP), a significant air hub serving northern Italy and offering access to business and leisure travelers as well as connections to other European locations.
While Milan-Malpensa is situated outside the city, it is linked to Milano Centrale via the Malpensa Express rail service. Aeroméxico has not disclosed details regarding the flight's frequency, operating days, schedules, introductory fares, or flight number, as the project is contingent upon obtaining the required government approvals.
Should the approval process be successful, Aeroméxico would become the sole Mexican airline offering a connection between Mexico City and two Italian destinations, as they currently operate through a service to Rome-Fiumicino. Giancarlo Mulinelli, Senior Vice President of Global Sales at Aeroméxico, expressed excitement about adding Milan to their international network, stating that the route will foster stronger cultural, commercial, and business relationships between Mexico and Italy.
Recent data from the Tourism Ministry indicates that air arrivals from Italy increased by 13.7% in the first eleven months of 2025, reaching 102,813 arrivals. The new route will not only benefit Milan but also provide Mexicans from various regions with the opportunity to fly to Milan via a layover in Mexico City, maintaining Aeroméxico's network.
