His comments were echoed by local officials, who said future route growth will depend in part on passenger uptake once the service begins. (liderempresarial.com) June 1 is the next concrete milestone for the route, when Aerus is scheduled to begin operations from Aguascalientes, and July is when the airline says it expects to add Tuesday and Thursday frequencies.
