As a result of this alliance, Viva Aerobus will decorate one of its Airbus aircrafts with iconic Raiders imagery in the more than 2,000 flights a year that this aircraft will carry out. Likewise, it will be included in numerous dynamics on its social networks to pamper its passengers, who will now have the opportunity to win trips, exclusive access and tickets to attend Raiders games in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium, which has been recognized as one of the best venues in the U.S.
"We are very excited to be the official Mexican airline of the Raiders, a team that, like us, is guided by discipline, perseverance, camaraderie and passion for what we do.

This alliance is one more step taken by the Las Vegas Raiders and Viva Aerobus to promote healthy recreation, sports and the values associated with them, and connect with the local community and culture. Likewise, this partnership is the result of Viva's vision to be the most entertaining airline in the Americas and, consequently, to strengthen its presence in the United States.
Viva currently operates two routes to/from Las Vegas, flying from Mexico City daily and from Monterrey four times a week. The airline makes available to passengers more than 200,000 seats between Mexico and the state of Nevada per year at low prices, point-to-point flights, the most modern fleet in Mexico—the third newest in North America, with an average aircraft age of five years.
