Carlos Slim Helú returns to Toluca after a week of business in Guadalajara

Carlos Slim Helú flew from Guadalgarra to his home base at Toluca International Airport on June 19 in his Gulfstream G650, tail XA-CLR. The 48-minute hop closed out several days of travel in western Mexico, following flights the previous day that originated near the Michoacán border and from Toluca itself.

The return comes the same week Slim Helú’s annual press conference in Mexico City is reverberating. At that event, per carlosslim.com, he announced a US$5 billion investment this year across infrastructure, oil, and telecoms. He also confirmed that Grupo Carso will not proceed with the Lakach deepwater gas project with Pemex, calling the deepwater scheme “irrational” in comments cited by discoveryalert.com.au. Meanwhile, the magnate’s companies were awarded a 111-kilometer stretch of the Saltillo-Nuevo Laredo passenger rail project, per cronista.com.

The Guadalajara leg of the itinerary may have involved meetings tied to those infrastructure and telecom portfolios — the city is a major industrial and logistics hub. Slim Helú’s recent flights also show stops near Los Cabos on June 15, consistent with his pattern of moving between Grupo Carso offices, construction sites, and the capital region. The G650 is now parked at his primary base, likely ahead of a busy second half of the month.
