Aerounión (México City International) has rebranded to Avianca Cargo México, the company announced in a statement.
The Mexican cargo specialist aims to bolster its global connectivity by aligning with avianca cargo’s (and thereby parent avianca airlines’) broader network and capabilities. It underlined that the rebranding did not affect the Mexican carrier's business structure, operational permits, or governance. Avianca Cargo México will continue "operating independently".
Avianca Holdings has held a stake of an undisclosed percentage in Mexico’s AeroUnion since 2014 when fully-owned subsidiary TAMPA Cargo (now avianca cargo) completed its acquisition of a minority share.
AeroUnion operates a fleet of two A330-300(P2F)s, the latest one received on June 20, 2025. Last year, it retired its ageing B767-200(ERBDSF) and A300-600R(F) fleets moving to a younger, standardised fleet manufactured by Airbus, following the steps of avianca cargo, which has six A330-200Fs.
Mexican law caps the foreign ownership of local carriers at 49%.
