A new direct flight from Los Angeles to Cozumel landed on the island Saturday. Acting mayor Elías Farah Ceh said the airport received the plane of United Airline passengers, which is scheduled to be a new regular flight.
Farah Ceh says that the new route significantly increases Cozumel’s connectivity with the United States. “The arrival of this direct flight represents an opportunity for Cozumel to open its doors to tourists from other parts of the world since the Los Angeles airport offers more than 900 weekly flights to 34 countries.

United Airlines will operate the weekly flight between the two cities, departing L.A. every Saturday at 9:00 a.m. to arrive in Cozumel at 3:50 p.m…
