The founders of Ryanair (the Ryan family, of course) inked a deal with the Mexican bus company IAMSA to start a new discount airline. The Ryans took a 49% stake in the new company, allegedly named… (wait for it…)
AeroBus.
With that name, they’re ironically not using Airbus planes. Rather, they’re starting off with two Boeing 737-300s.
Besides intra-Mexican flights, AeroBus is considering flights to San Diego, LA, Las Vegas, Houston, and Chicago.
We can assume that the airline will be aggressive on price, certainly to start. Let’s just hope they offer more legroom than Ryanair. Windowshades and seats that recline even just a smidgen would be nice, too.
