“PASSUR is an important contributor to Aeromexico’s award of #1 On Time Performing Airline in the world,” said Juan Carlos Almanza, Director of Mexico City International Airport Operations/Underwing for Aeromexico. “Our optimized aircraft tow operation, managed by Aeromexico’s skilled ground operations team on the PASSUR ARiVA platform, is an essential component of that outstanding achievement — part of a larger integration of the ARiVA platform into Aeromexico’s operations. We are very pleased with the Aeromexico-PASSUR partnership.”
Recently, Aeromexico was recognized with the Global On Time Performance Award for 2025—its second consecutive year as the world’s most on-time airline. Aeromexico’s aircraft tow operation at Mexico City International Airport (AICM), managed on the PASSUR ARiVA platform, is an essential component of that outstanding achievement. Here’s an article from Cirium about their on time performance.
Aircraft tows are just one part of the Aeromexico operation powered by ARiVA, which also includes support for gate optimization, taxi time optimization, and network integrity. Here is a more detailed description of the Aeromexico tow operation on ARiVA.
