Southwest Airlines announces plans to sell tickets to Mexico via a partnership with Mexican carrier Volaris.

Southwest details on codeshare schedules and "additional features regarding the partnership" will come by early 2010. Southwest says "the two airlines have completed the first step in creating a relationship that will eventually allow the carriers to offer Customers a seamless travel experience to a wide array of destinations. This initial agreement puts the two airlines on a path toward bringing more low fares and a better Customer experience across the U.S./Mexican border." The Southwest-Volaris agreement also must win government approval.

With Volaris, Southwest has now announced intentions to begin partnering with airlines in both Mexico and Canada. Canada's No. 2 airline –- low-cost carrier WestJet –- will be Southwest's partner north of the border.

As for today's announcement, what routes to Mexico might eventually have flights with Southwest flight numbers? Southwest didn't divulge any details, though Richard Sweet –- Southwest's Senior Director of Planning and Distribution – had this to say on Southwest's corporate blog: "Like our new codeshare partner WestJet, Volaris presently serves some pretty cool destinations ... Places like Cancun, Cabo, Puerto Vallarta, and Acapulco are certainly great places to vacation. Mexico City (via Toluca), Monterrey, and Guadalajara are great business travel destinations and will complement our efforts to attract more business travelers."

MEXICO CITY – Mexico and the United States have signed an agreement to expand from two to three the number of airlines allowed to fly between U.S. airports and 14 of the main Mexican resorts and cities.

The accord would provide increased competition and flights to Acapulco, Cancun, Cozumel, Guadalajara, Huatulco, Ixtapa, Loreto, Manzanillo, Mazatalan, Merida, Monterrey, Oaxaca, Puerto Vallarta and San Jose del Cabo.

"Both businesses and individual consumers win when countries allow their air carriers to compete for passengers," U.S. Ambassador Tony Garza said in a statement. The agreement "will allow new travel options and open the market to travelers who had, in the past, never dreamed they could afford to buy an airline ticket," Garza said.

The agreement, signed by Jeffrey N. Shane, the U.S. undersecretary of transportation, and Pedro Cerisola, Mexico's secretary of communication and transportation, opens opportunities for more flights and lower fares on many routes in the third-largest U.S. international air market.

The agreement adds a new provision for U.S. and Mexican carriers to enter into code-sharing arrangements with carriers from third countries for their U.S.-Mexico services.
