Anniversary

A year has passed since financially troubled Mexicana Airlines stopped flying. The carrier sought protection under bankruptcy laws and has been attempting without success to reorganize. Also no longer flying since 2010 is Aviacsa, a smaller carrier that also served cities in the United States. Newer Mexican airlines and foreign firms have taken over many routes that otherwise would have been abandoned. Both airlines say that they will return to the skies, but industry observers tend to doubt this.
