Aerolíneas Internacionales S.A. de C.V. was a Mexican domestic airline headquartered in Mexico City and had a hub in Cuernavaca Airport. Despite its name (translating to "International Airlines"), the airline never actually operated outside Mexico.2

The story

Aerolíneas Internacionales started operations in July 1994 with a fleet of two Boeing 727 under its President Luis Rodriguez Dorantes and his brother, Alfredo Rodriguez Dorantes.

The airline's permit was suspended by the Secretariat of Communications and Transport due to violations of safety inspections on its aircraft. Further, it had outstanding debts with Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares, the Mexican Air Traffic Control (SENEAM) and the finance ministry (SHCP) of over US$7 million. Thus, all scheduled and charter operations ceased on June 13, 2003.
