History
Aviacsa was created in June of 1990, by the government of the Mexican State of Chiapas in order to fulfil the transportation needs of the fast-growing communities located in that state. It operated its first flight on September 20, 1990 using one 89-seat British Aerospace 146 (BAe 146) regional aircraft between Mexico City and the cities of Tapachula, and Tuxtla Gutiérrez, both located in the Mexican State of Chiapas. By the end of the year, the airline received a second BAe 146 and had initiated service from the two towns in Chiapas to Villahermosa, Merida, Oaxaca, Chetumal, and Cancun.
- 1994: Aviacsa once again changes its fleet of Fokker 100s, for a new fleet of four 164-seat Boeing 727-200s. The airline also initiates a charter division, utilising the Fokker 100s.
- December 1999: The airline acquires four Boeing 737-200s and adds them to their fleet.
- 2000 to 2005: Aviacsa uses its small fleet to introduce new flights and destinations throughout Mexico, as well as scheduled service to five US Cities. In 2000, it changed its image, slogan, and corporate logo. Currently, it is the third largest airline in Mexico, as well as the fastest growing.
