[edit] History
Interjet started operations on December 1, 2005, with an initial fleet of seven Airbus A320 aircraft, which had previously belonged to Volare Airlines.[5] The airline placed an order for 16 new A320 aircraft to replace the second-hand ones, which was increased by another 10 aircraft on 10 January 2010. After the demise of Mexico City-based competitor Aero California in August 2008, Interjet took over the vacant slots and established flight services to Mexico City International Airport.
[edit] International services
The airline operates international services to Guatemala City and Havana from Mexico City. On September 28, 2011, Interjet will finally begin American flights to Miami, Florida on November 17 from Mexico City and will also start service from San Antonio to Mexico City on December 1st. [6] [7]
