Aero Calafia commercial director Aldo Leyva detailed following much negotiation, the reality of the round-trip Tijuana-Puerto Peñasco route would be the first step for a continued presence of the airline in the region.  He clarified the intent is to not to come in and solely operate for a few months, but rather generate conditions in order to operate year-round while possibly exploring further routes in the future.

Puerto Peñasco mayor Jorge Pivac Carrillo applauded the agreement signed with Aero Calafia, which is a regional leader in Northwestern Mexico that currently operates 23 commercial routes.  He detailed the goal is for the Aero Calafia Puerto Peñasco – Tijuana – Puerto Peñasco flights to begin in April, 2022, initially on two days weekly. Dates and costs are yet to be defined.
