Universal Weather & Aviation has published a guide for business aviation operations in Mexico that discusses several recent changes made by the country’s Federal Civil Aviation Agency. These include easing cabotage regulations and highlighting inconsistencies with its new entry permit system for private aircraft.

According to the flight-planning company, the previous annual permit program is replaced by single- and multi-entry authorizations (AIU) that are intended to be valid for six months. However, that period is not being consistently honored by all airports.
