"The direct flights from Israel to Mexico will save passengers many hours and a lot of money," Transportation Minister Miri Regev said.

Direct flight routes will be launched between Tel Aviv and Mexico City and Cancun, Transportation Minister Miri Regev announced on Thursday.

"The direct flights from Israel to Mexico will save passengers many hours and a lot of money. Until now, the flights between the countries have only been possible with a stopover in Europe, the USA, or Canada. Soon, the direct flights will be launched and will shorten many flying hours," said Regev during a visit to Mexico.

 "These flights will be an additional contribution to the Israeli economy, connecting Israel to the world and lowering flight costs. During my visit, I met with Mexico's Jewish communities and celebrated Sukkot together with them, and strengthened the relationship we have with the Jewish communities in the Diaspora. I met a strong, believing, Zionist, Jewish community in Mexico, which stands behind the State of Israel."

Also, Mexican Transportation Minister Jorge Nuño Lara and his deputy were invited by Regev to take part in the International Conference on Advanced Systems in Public Transport which will be held in Israel this coming November.
