U.S. downgrades Mexico air safety rating
- 4 years ago
The United States on Tuesday downgraded Mexico's aviation safety rating, an action that bars Mexican carriers from adding new U.S. flights and limits the ability of airlines to carry out marketing agreements with one another.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, in announcing the action, said it is "fully committed to helping the Mexican aviation authority improve its safety oversight system to a level that meets" international standards. The agency also said it is "ready to provide expertise and resources" to resolve issues raised in the safety assessment process.
