The number of passengers traveling between Mexico and the United States fell by 5.2 percent compared to 2010, according to government statistics. Two Mexican airlines — Mexicana and Aviacsa — both of which served U. S. markets, no longer are flying. Foreign airlines have attempted to fill the gap and other Mexican airlines have moved in as well. Even so, figures indicate that only 4.7 million passengers flew between the two countries the first quarter of this year compared to 4.9 million in 2010.
