Interjet (ABC Aerolineas)
Interjet is a Mexican carrier that historically operated as a low-cost/hybrid airline, positioning itself between ultra-low-cost carriers and legacy full-service airlines from a traveler’s perspective. It marketed a more value-oriented product for domestic and regional travelers rather than full long-haul service.
The airline’s network centered on Mexico and nearby international markets using Mexico City-area airports as its operational bases. Interjet ceased regular operations and has been largely grounded since late 2020, with an uncertain timeline for any full resumption of scheduled passenger service.
Where Interjet Flies
Interjet operated from primary bases in the Mexico City area, notably Benito Juárez (MEX) and Toluca/Adolfo López Mateos (TLC). From a traveler’s perspective it focused on a mix of domestic Mexican routes and international services within North and Central America. It was not a member of a global airline alliance, and its codeshare and commercial partnerships were limited compared with flag carriers, so interline connectivity depended on individual agreements rather than alliance networks.

Tips for Flying Interjet (ABC Aerolineas)
- Confirm the airline’s operational status and your flight reservation before finalizing nonrefundable travel arrangements, as Interjet has experienced prolonged service suspensions in recent years.
- Check which Mexico City-area airport your flight uses (Benito Juárez (MEX) versus Toluca/Adolfo López Mateos (TLC)) because ground transport time and cost differ significantly.
- Carefully review fare rules and the baggage allowance at booking since allowances and ancillary fees vary by fare and may not be included with the base fare.
- If your trip is time-sensitive, prefer refundable or flexible tickets or buy travel insurance that covers airline insolvency or prolonged cancellations.
