Monitor upcoming Q2 2026 earnings for unit revenue and margin impact from the improved load factor and international demand strength. The cross-border market momentum is a positive signal for revenue quality, but domestic weakness warrants attention.

Financial Impact
Monthly traffic metrics only — no revenue or earnings data provided. The 4.9% RPM growth on 0.4% lower capacity suggests unit revenue improvement, but financial impact cannot be quantified from this filing.
Risk Factors
- Domestic RPMs continue to decline YoY (-1.4% in May, -2.8% YTD), indicating softness in Mexico's local market
- Preliminary traffic data is unaudited and does not predict future financial performance
- Pending merger with Viva Aerobus faces regulatory uncertainty as noted in the prior 20-F filing
