Interjet was a popular low-cost airline from Mexico. It started flying in 2005. Its main base, or "hub," was at Mexico City International Airport. Interjet mostly used Airbus A320 and Sukhoi Superjet airplanes. They flew from Mexico to places like the USA, Central America, and South America.

Interjet stopped flying in 2020.

What Was Interjet?

Interjet was known for offering flights that were more affordable than many other airlines. They aimed to make air travel easier for many people. Even though they were a "low-cost" airline, they tried to offer good service to their passengers.

Where Did Interjet Fly?

Interjet's main goal was to connect different cities within Mexico. But they also flew to many international destinations. This included popular cities in the United States, like Las Vegas, and various places across Central America and South America. They helped people travel for vacations, family visits, and business trips.

Interjet's Airplanes

Interjet's fleet mainly consisted of two types of airplanes:

  • The Airbus A320: This is a very common type of plane used by airlines all over the world. It's known for being reliable and comfortable for short to medium-length flights.
  • The Sukhoi Superjet 100: This was a newer type of regional jet. Interjet was one of the first airlines to use these planes outside of Russia.

Partnerships

In 2014, Interjet made special agreements with other big airlines. They partnered with American Airlines and Iberia. These partnerships meant that passengers could sometimes book flights that involved flying on more than one airline, making travel connections easier.
