The U.S. Department of Transportation has ordered Delta Air Lines and Aeromexico to dissolve their joint venture effective January 1, 2026.
Delta Air Lines issued a statement: ‘We are disappointed by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s decision to withdraw approval of the strategic and pro-competitive partnership between Delta Air Lines and Aeromexico. This decision will cause significant harm to U.S. jobs, communities, and consumers traveling between the United States and Mexico. We are reviewing the Department’s order and evaluating our next steps.’
The U.S. Department of Transportation said that recent measures by the Mexican government — including banning all-cargo flights and reducing capacity at Mexico City International Airport — have created an uneven competitive environment and are causing real harm to users. The Department will reassess if conditions improve and will continue to permit a codeshare partnership.
