About 100 travel industry types were on hand in Toronto this week to celebrate AeroMexico’s launch of non-stop service between Toronto and Mexico City.

And the mood was certainly buoyant as the carrier – already operating flights from Montreal – also announced that come December of this year, it would be adding service out of Vancouver.
