FEMSA's Gulfstream lands in Madrid after continental circuit

FEMSA's Gulfstream G280, registration XA-FMX, was tracked arriving at Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport (LEMD) on June 26, 2026, after a brief, high-altitude hop from Vöslau-Kottingbrunn Airfield (LOAV) near Vienna. The 2h 27m flight touched down in the Spanish capital at 4:21 PM local, capping a European swing that earlier this week included a Madrid-to-Vienna leg on June 21 and an Asturias-to-Madrid segment on June 19.

If FEMSA leadership was aboard, the itinerary would place them in Madrid the same week Coca-Cola FEMSA announced its first-quarter 2026 results — reported on April 29 and covered in detail by the company's investor relations page [femsa.com](https://www.femsa.com/en/press-room/press-release/coca-cola-femsa-first-quarter-2026-results/). The bottler, led by CEO Ian Craig, noted stable margins despite a Mexican excise tax hit, and outlined strategic regional investments, including a new $51 million distribution center in Argentina and a first can production line in Uruguay [femsa.com](https://www.femsa.com/en/press-room/press-release/coca-cola-femsa-reinforces-leadership-in-latin-america-with-strategic-investments-and-operational-expansion/). While the earnings call was virtual, a European stop for investor roadshows or board-level meetings would be unsurprising.

The aircraft's recent pattern shows FEMSA's aviation subsidiary, Servicios Aereos Regiomontanos, keeping the G280 busy: after departing its Monterrey base on June 13 for São José dos Campos, Brazil, the jet made its way to northern Spain and then to Vienna before returning to Madrid. The aircraft's home base remains Monterrey International Airport (MMMY), and the annual rhythm of roughly 120 U.S. flights suggests this European tour — while atypical — may reflect the conglomerate's sprawling Coca-Cola and retail footprint from Mexico to Europe.
