Paris, July 27, 2026 – Aeromexico Cargo’s summer schedule saw the start of a Paris-Monterrey connection and the resumption of its Barcelona-Mexico flights after a 5-year pause. ECS Group’s subsidiaries, Aero Cargo France and GenAir Spain, are successfully promoting and filling the extra 100 tons of weekly cargo capacity out of Europe.
“Aeromexico implemented the largest European expansion in our airline’s history this year, and our cargo customers on both continents are already feeling the benefit of enhanced and expanded connections,” states Alejandro Mendez, Senior Vice President of Aeromexico Cargo. “We have listened to customers, monitored the market and worked closely with GenAir Spain and Aero Cargo France, to develop a cargo offer that meets demand and improves the efficiency of cargo logistics both on board as well as on the ground. Our Barcelona-Mexico City connection is one such case in point, as there is now no need to truck cargo to Madrid first, to make the flight connection – a win for both speed and sustainability. Together with our ECS Group partners, we will continue to leverage the insights gained from digital data analysis to finetune our cargo services out of Europe.”
In addition to its year-round daily flights (AM006) from Paris–Charles de Gaulle (CDG) to Mexico City (MEX), Aeromexico premiered a direct service from Paris to Monterrey (MTY). This is the airline’s second connection, building on the success of its existing Madrid-Monterrey flights which began in 2022, becoming the first ever Monterrey service out of the European Union at that time. Flight number AM045 leaves Paris for Monterrey every Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday, after which it continues to Mexico City, thus increasing the airline’s Mexico connections to 10 weekly flights over the summer period through to October 2026, adding 35-45 tons of cargo capacity to the French export market. Boeing 787 aircraft are operated on all these routes, offering a cargo capacity of up to 16 tons per flight.
Aeromexico also resumed its direct flights from Barcelona El Prat (BCN) to Mexico City in late March 2026, having halted the connection in 2019. The Boeing 787 service operates daily except Wednesdays, offering up to 60 tons of cargo capacity per week.
“GenAir Spain and Aeromexico celebrate 35 years of partnership this year, and Aero Cargo France’s connection with Aeromexico has also passed the 30-year mark. Our French and Spanish colleagues know exactly what Aeromexico’s cargo customers want and need, and the fruit of their preparation in the run-up to the new service launches is already showing,” says Jean Ceccaldi, Chief Executive Officer of ECS Group. “Existing partnerships with forwarders across Europe have been expanded and strengthened, and agreements with new customers set up, ensuring healthy load factors. Aero Cargo France reports a mix of pharmaceutical, automotive, aerospace, and luxury items, whilst GenAir Spain’s Mexico shipments include textiles, automotive, machinery, e-commerce, and pharmaceuticals.”
