Exhibit Description
99.1 Press release dated April 7, 2025, titled “Volaris Reports March 2025 Traffic Results: Load Factor of 84%”

Volaris Reports March 2025 Traffic Results: Load Factor of 84% Mexico City, Mexico, April 7, 2025 – Controladora Vuela Compañía de Aviación, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: VLRS and BMV: VOLAR) (“Volaris” or “the Company”), the ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC) serving Mexico, the United States, Central and South America, reports its March 2025 preliminary traffic results. In March, Volaris’ ASM capacity increased by 10.9% year-over-year, while RPMs for the month grew by 7.8%. Mexican domestic RPMs increased 9.9%, while international RPMs increased 4.6%. As a result, the load factor decreased by 2.4 percentage points year-over-year to 84.4%. During the month, Volaris transported 2.6 million passengers. Enrique Beltranena, Volaris’ President and CEO, said: "March domestic load factor remains stable, indicating our effective approach to capacity management and fare modulation. Meanwhile, international cross-border demand continues to show limited elasticity. Across both domestic and international markets, VFR segments have maintained steady levels. Additionally, the shift of the Easter holiday into April this year contributed to some of the reduced load factors observed. We will continue to monitor forward booking patterns and adjust capacity to match demand accordingly."
