For travelers looking to explore more of Mexico this year, American Airlines is set to offer a record-breaking schedule with more flights, seats and destinations than any other U.S. airline. With service to Puerto Escondido (PXM) — the airline’s 30th destination in Mexico — starting Dec. 3, American’s network offers comprehensive service to the top destinations for adventure-lovers, sun-seekers and friends and family visitors alike.
“With the announcement of American’s 30th destination in Mexico — Puerto Escondido — we further solidify our position as the leading U.S. airline in the country with an operation and network that is unmatched,” said José A. Freig, American’s Vice President of International, Contact Center Operations and Service Recovery. “Puerto Escondido is quickly becoming a top destination for travelers in search of tropical and relaxing getaways, and we are confident that our new service from Dallas-Fort Worth will offer our customers the opportunity to experience a unique part of Mexico.”
Located on the coast of Oaxaca, Puerto Escondido is a hidden gem known for its beaches, nightlife and more. From surfing and sunbathing to delectable seafood, Puerto Escondido has something for all kinds of travelers looking for a winter escape. American will operate year-round service twice a week to PXM from Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) on Wednesdays and Saturdays, the most service of any U.S. carrier to PXM. Customers can also enhance their journey by choosing a premium cabin on the Embraer 175 aircraft that will be used on the route.
Mexico is the most popular international destination for travel from the U.S., and American continues to grow its network to the country. In March, American launched new service to Tampico (TAM), and in November, American will offer the only international service from the state of Oklahoma with new flights to Cancun (CUN). American launched service to three destinations in Mexico in 2024: Tijuana (TIJ), Tulum (TQO) and Veracruz (VER).
