History
Avioquintana operated under the legal name Aviones de Renta de Quintana Roo, S.A. de C.V. and was established in 1997 in Quintana Roo, Mexico. From its principal base at Cancún International Airport and its hub at Chetumal International Airport, it provided domestic private charter and air-taxi services. The company therefore occupied a different position from Mexico’s large scheduled airlines: its documented role was as a smaller operator focused on private or charter transportation rather than a publicly marketed national timetable network. The business was owned by Mario Hermosillo Torres, whom the available reference describes as an important pilot of his era. The supplied material does not provide a detailed account of the company’s founding process, capitalization, management structure, route development, or commercial partnerships. It also does not identify a parent group, public shareholders, or a separately reported international division. Avioquintana’s documented former equipment comprised one Embraer EMB 120RT Brasilia and one Fairchild Metro II. Both are regional turboprop aircraft types historically used for short-haul passenger, cargo, and charter work. The available fleet information does not specify acquisition dates, registration details, utilization, or the exact dates on which the aircraft left service. The most recent operational detail in the supplied reference is a fleet statement dated September 2020, which reported that Avioquintana had no aircraft of its own. This is an important marker in the company’s history because it suggests that its direct operating capacity had ended or materially changed by that point. However, the reference does not say whether the company was formally dissolved, whether it operated aircraft supplied by another entity, or whether it retained an air-taxi business without owned aircraft. No later verified information is supplied regarding operations, ownership, fleet, or corporate status. The company should consequently be described as having an unknown current status rather than definitively classified as active or defunct.
