When World War II began, the airline continued to grow with the help of Pan Am, which owned 25% of the new Mexican airline. World War II, or the Second World War, (often abbreviated WWII) was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including Aeroméxico saw few changes for the next two decades. However, during the 1950s, renovation began, and the airline took over various small competitor companies across the country, including Aerovias Guest (the second airline of the country at that time) that held the routes to Madrid and Paris. Madrid (pronounced in English in Spanish and colloquially in Spain) is the Capital and largest city of Spain. Paris (ˈpærɨs in English; in French) is the Capital of France and the country's largest city Aeroméxico added aircraft including the legendary Douglas DC-3 and its successor, the Douglas DC-4.

During the late 1950s, the Douglas DC-4's were replaced by some Douglas DC-6 and 3 Bristol Britannia the first turboprop passenger plane in the fleet and in 1958, services were inaugurated to Idlewild Airport (now JFK) using the same Bristol Britannia.

1960s

In the early 1960s fleet of Aeronaves de Mexico (Aeromexico) included Douglas DC-3, Douglas DC-6, and Bristol Britannia aircraft. Starting in 1961, "Aeronaves" began replacing its piston-engined planes with new jets. The first jet-engined aircraft were a pair of Douglas DC-8's. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout The planes were used on routes within Mexico and to New York City. Between 1962 and 1963, Aeronaves de Mexico (Aeromexico) took over Aerovias Guest Mexico the second airline, and they were merged, under the name Aeronaves de Mexico. Later in the 1960s more DC-8's were added and service to Europe was resumed, the service was operated by two Mexicana's, Comet IVC those planes were dry leased by Aerovias Guest Before the merger.

1970s

The 1970s brought dramatic changes for Aeroméxico. In 1970, under a government plan, Mexican domestic airlines were rationalized into an integrated air transport system under the control of Aeronaves de Mexico. The system included eight smaller carriers, although these were later disbanded. [1] During the early-1970s, the remaining DC-6 and Bristol Britannia aircraft were retired. A new color scheme (orange and black) was introduced and the airline changed its name from "Aeronaves de México" to its current, shortened version of Aeroméxico in February 1972. Aeromexico, as one of the launch customers of the Douglas DC-10-30s program, received the first two planes in 1974, registered as XA-DUG and XA-DUH. That same year the airline also took delivery the first four Douglas DC-9-32s. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft. Please see WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft/page content for recommended layout During this period the airline's popularity and visibility grew dramatically. This was due in part to Aeroméxico's involvement in Mexican movies. The United Mexican States ( or commonly Mexico (ˈmɛksɪkoʊ () is a federal constitutional Republic in North America. Basically, every time a character in any movie produced in Mexico had to fly somewhere, they supposedly flew on Aeroméxico. Service to Canada was initiated and in late-1970s, two more DC-9-15s were added to the fleet. Country to "Dominion of Canada" or "Canadian Federation" or anything else please read the Talk Page

1980s

The early 1980s brought times of expansion. A new color scheme was introduced (orange paint and silver), two DC-10-15 and a DC-10-30 planes were added in 1981, N10038 and N1003N, and in 1982, N3878P later XA-RIY. Aeromexico as one of the launch customers of the McDonnell Douglas MD-82, a stretch version of the DC-9, received the first two planes in late 1981. During the period between 1980 and 1981, eight more DC-9-32 aircraft were added. The late 1980s were tough times for Aeroméxico. On August 31, 1986, the company suffered the only fatal accident outside of Mexico when Aeroméxico Flight 498, a Douglas DC-9, approaching Los Angeles International Airport was struck by a small Piper aircraft.

Fifteen victims on the ground were also killed. After three years and a long trial, the plane crew and the airline were found not to blame. This was because the pilot of the Piper had strayed into an air traffic control zone reserved for commercial flights. This accident cost 82 people their lives. In April 1988, the state owned company was declared bankrupt. The main reasons were lack of organization, a fleet with an average of 20 years without a renovation plan and a depredating administration by the Mexican Government. The company was grounded for three months. In August, a privatization program was underway. This involved retiring ten Douglas DC-8 along with five DC-9-15 aircraft. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft.

1990s

The early 1990s were turbulent times, with the rise in fuel costs due to the first Gulf War, and a domestic fare war caused by start up airlines like TAESA, Saro, Aviacsa, among others, as well as constant labor problems. TAESA (Transportes Aéreos Ejecutivos SA was a discount Airline based in Mexico and owned by Alberto Abed Schekaiban. Aviacsa (Consorcio Aviaxsa SA de CV is an Airline based in Monterrey, Mexico.

Later that year, AeroMexico acquired the bankrupt Aeroperú from the Peruvian government. They tried to use the same path that led AeroMexico to the leadership in the domestic market with AeroPeru. In 1992, AeroMéxico introduced direct flights to Madrid and Paris from Mexico City and started services to Frankfurt via Paris and Rome via Madrid. Rome ( Roma ˈroma Roma is the capital city of Italy and Lazio, and is Italy's largest and most populous city with more than 2 On 1993 Aeromexico Group took over Mexicana the second largest airline in the Mexican market. Between 1994 and 1995 the six DC-10 aircraft in the fleet were retired. Their last revenue flight was in February 1995. The sale of Grupo Cintra was announced after several delays in September 1999. With the looming presidential elections in 2000, everything was delayed once again. The ruling party for 70 years lost the election and all the policies changed. The new government put everything on hold until better economic conditions arrived to start the stock sell-off. Just when they were about to start the process, the September 11, 2001 attacks occurred and nothing materialized since the two main carriers Mexicana and AeroMexico (as all the carriers in the world) were losing large amounts of money.

2000s

In the period between 2000-2005 AeroMéxico had an average fleet of 60 aircraft in main line, plus 20 in Aerolitoral, as well as five CEO's during this time.
