Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts because a new star is about to take off in the Mexican aviation industry, and it's got all the makings of an epic journey. On October 30, the Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC) handed out the golden ticket - or in this case, the assignment title - to the latest entrant in the Mexican aviation scene, Mexicana de Aviación. But here's the kicker, it's not just another airline; it's a state-owned bird of the skies.

Now, this isn't just your run-of-the-mill news. This is more exciting than discovering extra legroom on a budget flight. The AFAC, which sounds a bit like an abbreviation for an aviation-themed rock band, granted this coveted title to “Aerolínea del Estado Mexicano S.A de C.V.” — quite a mouthful, right? This might not seem like a big deal, but hold on to your flight manuals because it's a historic moment.
