Aerus adds Saltillo and Monclova routes from Monterrey in second anniversary expansion
Mexican regional airline to launch flights to Saltillo and Monclova, boosting connectivity in Nuevo León and Coahuila through Viva Aerobus partnership
To mark its second anniversary, regional airline Aerus has announced the launch of two new routes from its base at Monterrey International Airport (MTY). Starting June 16 and 17, 2025, the airline will connect the capital of Nuevo León with Saltillo (SLW) and Monclova (LOV), respectively, strengthening mobility across northeastern Mexico.

Flights will be operated with the airline’s Cessna Grand Caravan EX aircraft, which seat 12 passengers and are part of what Aerus describes as the most modern fleet in the country.
The Monterrey–Saltillo route will begin on June 16, with two daily flights, operating seven days a week. Departures from Monterrey are scheduled at 8:55 a.m. and 7:15 p.m., while return flights from Saltillo will take off at 10:05 a.m. and 8:25 p.m. This direct air service offers a convenient alternative to ground transportation between two of the region’s most dynamic industrial hubs.
The Monterrey–Monclova route will launch on June 17, operating five times per week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday). The flight departs Monterrey at 12:45 p.m., with the return from Monclova at 2:20 p.m.
