United Airlines is set to expand its winter travel routes by adding a new destination on Mexico's Pacific coast. Starting December 20, the airline will introduce a Saturday-only nonstop flight from Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport to Tepic International Airport. This route will be operated using an Embraer E175 aircraft.

The addition of Tepic marks United as the first U.S. airline to offer flights to this location, which is situated near the Riviera Nayarit coast, north of Puerto Vallarta. Previously, only Volaris provided nonstop service from Tepic to Los Angeles International Airport.

This move follows United's earlier expansion in Mexico with the introduction of flights to Puerto Escondido International Airport in April. American Airlines plans to begin operations there in December as well.

Alongside Tepic, United will launch two more routes: one from Denver International Airport to Mexico City International Airport and another to Punta Cana International Airport in the Dominican Republic starting October 26. These routes will operate daily using Boeing 737 MAX 8 and MAX 9 aircraft respectively.

United's expansion aligns with efforts by U.S. carriers to grow internationally amidst a softer domestic market. Recent data shows a rise in Americans traveling abroad by 2.4% compared to last year, while foreign visitors entering the U.S. decreased by 1.2%.

In addition to these new routes, United is increasing frequencies on existing Latin America and Caribbean services including flights from Houston to Medellin and Dominica.
