Delta Air Lines and Aeromexico have finalized a multi-year sponsorship agreement with the Federación Mexicana de Fútbol, the governing body for soccer in Mexico, and the Mexican National Team.
Under the agreement, both carriers are named the Official Airline Partners of the Mexican National Team. The partnership is designed to deliver enhanced fan experiences, meaningful community engagement and exclusive online content. With an audience of more than 140 million Mexican National Team supporters across Mexico and the United States, the team plays a central role in Hispanic culture and offers a strong platform to celebrate this new collaboration between the two airlines.
“This sponsorship is historic for Delta, Aeromexico and the Mexican National Team,” said Steve Sear, president, international and executive vice president, global sales, Delta. “We are proud to partner with a team that connects deeply with our employees and customers on both sides of the border. There is no better way to mark our growing transborder partnership between the U.S. and Mexico as our joint cooperative agreement becomes effective.”
Beyond serving as the team’s official airlines, the global sponsorship will feature a wide range of promotional assets at matches held in Mexico, at Mexico-hosted games in the United States during the annual MNT U.S. Tour, and at World Cup qualifiers and international friendlies staged in both countries. These initiatives aim to strengthen fan engagement, provide unique experiences at matches and support community programs tied to the Mexican National Team.
The collaboration between Delta and Aeromexico highlights a strategic alignment that leverages both carriers’ networks and customer bases. By combining resources and brand presence, the partnership seeks to create memorable moments for fans, improve travel experiences for the team and supporters, and extend outreach through content and activations geared toward the Mexican and Mexican-American communities.
As official airline partners, Delta and Aeromexico will integrate signage, promotions and digital content across match venues and related events, ensuring fans encounter consistent branding and elevated experiences. The sponsorship also opens opportunities for co-branded campaigns, special travel packages tied to match schedules and community-focused initiatives that celebrate the sport and its cultural impact.
This agreement represents a long-term commitment to supporting soccer in Mexico and reinforcing ties between both countries through sport. By aligning with the Mexican National Team, Delta and Aeromexico position themselves to engage a passionate fan base, deliver tailored services for supporters and foster community programs that resonate with millions of fans across North America.
