Aeroméxico Connect operated a daily flight to Monterrey until the winter of 2009, which was canceled due to the replacement of its Saab 340 aircraft with Embraer ERJ 145 jets. After two years without commercial flights, on November 3, 2010, Aeromar commenced operations in the city with the Piedras Negras-Monterrey route. Later, it was changed to the direct flight Piedras Negras-Saltillo-Mexico City. From 2014 until its bankruptcy in 2023, Aeromar offered flights between Piedras Negras and Mexico City.[2] In 2023, the regional airline Aerus began operations with a route to Monterrey.
