Airline Industry Information, Sept 13, 2005

Mexico's Aeromexico has offered to fly Mexicans for free from the areas damaged by the hurricane in the USA.

Mexicans in damaged areas of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida will receive free flights home and one of the first uses of the offer will be to carry home the body of a Mexican killed due to Hurricane Katrina.

There will be 1,000 seats made available on flights to Mexico from Atlanta, Miami, Houston and Dallas, according to Jose Kuri, the senior vice president of Aeromexico's US division. Those who qualify for tickets will be identified and helped by Mexican consulates in the US. They include those Mexicans who have lost their homes and jobs due to the hurricane.
