Grupo Aereo Monterrey S.A. de C.V., known under the commercial name Magnicharters, is an airline with its headquarters in Colonia Juárez, Cuauhtémoc, Mexico City, operating domestic holiday flights out of Mexico City International Airport.
The travel agency Magnitur was created in 1984.[3] Magnicharters was established in 1994 by the Bojórquez family to fly the clients of Magnitur.[4] It started operations in January 1995.[5] Focusing on the domestic tourism market, it mainly serves the major beach resorts of the country.
Magnicharters was the first Mexican commercial airline to hire a woman pilot.[3]
In 2000, Magnicharters was allowed to offer commercial flights (only charters and cargo flights before).[6]
In 2014, Magnicharters invested $2.5 million to develop its fleet by 30%. That year, the airline started flights to the United States, from Monterrey to Las Vegas and Orlando.[7]
In July 2017, to celebrate the 25 year-anniversary of the Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide, Magnicharters presented 2 planes painted with the masks of Dr. Wagner Jr. and Psycho Clown.[8][9]
