Only in the first quarter 2019, Viva achieved a 13% increase in the number of passengers from / to Cancun compared to 1Q2018.

"We are leaders in Cancun, one of our most important operational bases. Thus, we can offer Cuban travelers more than 20 destinations upon their arrival to Quintana Roo at the best price. And, in parallel, we can take Mexicans to Cancun from different places of the country and then fly them to the Caribbean island", said Juan Carlos Zuazua, CEO of Viva Aerobus.
