Delta Airlines has found itself in a bit of a predicament after a recent decision by the U.S. Department of Transportation. The decision could potentially threaten the future of five flights between Atlanta and Mexico operated by Delta.
The issue arose when the U.S. Department of Transportation permitted low-cost carrier Viva Aerobus to launch new flights between Mexico and the United States. Viva Aerobus plans to launch flights from Mexico City to four U.S. cities, including Atlanta.
This decision has sparked concern within Delta Airlines, as the new flights could impact the airline’s current routes between Atlanta and Mexico. Delta currently operates five flights between Atlanta and Mexico, which could face increased competition from Viva Aerobus.
Delta has expressed its opposition to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s decision, stating that it goes against principles of fair competition. The airline believes that allowing Viva Aerobus to launch these new flights could threaten the viability of its existing routes.
The situation is still developing, and it remains to be seen how Delta will respond to the new competition. In the meantime, passengers traveling between Atlanta and Mexico may need to keep a close eye on the status of their flights.
