Air Montenegro
A Mexican scheduled carrier legally known as Interjet, formerly distinguished by an all-Airbus narrow-body operation and an extensive domestic network centered on Mexico City.
About Air Montenegro
The airline identified legally as Interjet was a Mexican scheduled carrier founded in 2005 and based in Mexico City. Although the directory label says Air Montenegro, the Mexican headquarters, Interjet legal name, 4O code and interjet.com website belong to Interjet rather than Montenegro’s current flag carrier. Interjet developed as a privately owned alternative to Mexico’s established airlines, combining low-fare positioning with a comparatively spacious single-class product.
Mexico City was its principal hub and busiest departure point, followed by Guadalajara, Monterrey, Cancun and San Jose del Cabo. Its network covered 31 destinations across five countries through 85 routes. Important Mexican markets included Acapulco, Ixtapa, Puerto Vallarta, Tijuana and Chetumal, while international services included cities such as Los Angeles, San Antonio and New York.
Interjet’s aircraft operation centered on the Airbus A320 family, with the Airbus Industrie A320 recorded across its network. Cabins were primarily configured for economy travel, and the airline became known for offering more space between rows than many low-cost competitors. Available services, baggage allowances and seat conditions depended on the fare and period of travel, so historical ticket terms should not be treated as current policy.
Interjet did not belong to Star Alliance, SkyTeam or Oneworld. It operated its own loyalty scheme, Club Interjet, rather than participating in a major global alliance programme. The absence of alliance membership limited reciprocal status benefits, lounge access and through-ticketing opportunities compared with Mexico-based carriers connected to larger international airline groups.
Interjet’s principal strength was a broad Mexican network linking major commercial centers with coastal leisure destinations, supported by Airbus A320 aircraft and a relatively roomy economy cabin. Its major challenge was financial and operational instability, which culminated in the suspension of flights in December 2020. Travellers should therefore understand that the 31-destination, five-country network and its 85 routes describe the carrier’s operating footprint, not a currently bookable schedule.

Mexico City was the carrier’s primary hub, with Guadalajara, Monterrey, Cancun and San Jose del Cabo also serving as important departure points.
Airbus A320 Fleet
The network was operated with Airbus A320-family aircraft. Interjet generally offered an economy-focused cabin and was known for relatively generous spacing between seat rows.
