From Reuters:

“The Mexican government will launch a military-run airline later this year, officials said on Thursday, made possible by the 815 million-peso ($48 million) purchase of the brand of defunct airline Mexicana de Aviacion.

Mexicana, which entered bankruptcy proceedings in 2010, was previously a major national carrier, but encountered financial turbulence several years after being privatized.Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has vowed to revive the airline to offer low-cost options to travelers, adding there is room in the domestic market for another airline.”
