Many times I saw an Airbus from Fedex that had a regular run to an airport in Mexico. I think it was Saltillo.

60,000 lbs MTOGW and it should be ours. I say, should.

This should have the coke heads striking up the Mariachi Bands and doing the hat dance 'sobre el país entero' (for you Gringos - all over the country)

In a country that is now pretty much controlled by the drug cartels, this is just what they needed - their own, personal overnight delivery -hemisphere wide, of their 'products'! Caramba!

Could this be probably a pretty good inside for all that Mexican oil that they don't have the expertise to get out of the ground? A future's play, a la SWA?

Viva PhredExo !!

It's all about Cabotage. We don't fly internally w/in Canada and I suspect we won't in Mexico either. Unless of course, the U.S. is willing to let Mexican cargo airlines fly cargo internally w/in the U.S. borders. (insert a political ad from Huck here)

Not completely true, I use to fly between Monterrey and Guadalajara all the time. That was on the 727 years ago. It might be on the Bus now.

Right, and we fly between Delhi and Mumbai, Beijing and Shanghai, Narita and Nagoya but.......we don't haul internal cargo on these flights. We don't pick up boxes in Toluca and drop them off in Monterrey. If we did, you'd see Frito Bandito Aerolineas flying LAX-JFK.

And I bet you didn't drop off anything in MTY that you picked up in GDL!

I picked something up in GDL, years ago. Gave me a little sting, when I peed. But, that's another story.
