During the inauguration of Boeing India Engineering & Tech Center in Bengaluru, PM Modi praised Bengaluru's role in linking India's tech potential to global demand and lauded the new campus's potential to strengthen the global aviation sector. He also joked with Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah as the crowd chanted "Modi, Modi," saying "Mukhyamantri Ji aisa hota rehta hai." The event also saw the launch of the Boeing Sukanya Program aimed at supporting more girls' entry into the aviation sector.
Mexico City International Airport (AICM) will reduce flights from 52 to 43 per hour starting in November, according to a decree issued by Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. The decision has sparked backlash from the aviation sector, with the International Air Transport Association (IATA) criticizing the government's unilateral decision and lack of consultation with operators and users. Mexico's top three carriers, Aeromexico, Volaris, and Viva Aerobus, have also expressed concerns about the short notice and negative impact on passengers and workers. The flight reductions aim to alleviate saturation in Mexico City's airspace and divert traffic to the newer Felipe Angeles International Airport.
