The aircraft with 103 passengers and 6 crew members had been onFlight 582 fromCancún. Following the crash, an engine fire broke out, but the aircraft was evacuated in time, so that there were no fatalities.[13]
  • On 27 April 2009 at approximately at 18:00 local time another undercarriage failure occurred with a Magnicharters Boeing 737-200 (registered XA-MAF) operating a flight from Cancún to Guadalajara, this time asFlight 585. Upon approaching Guadalajara International Airport, the landing gear could not be fully lowered, so the pilots had to perform abelly landing. There were no serious injuries among the 108 passengers and 8 crew on board.[14]
  • In December 2014, a pilot of the airline was laid off for letting the singer Esmeralda Ugalde sit in the pilot's seat and take possession of the plane's control during a commercial flight. The singer had taken photos and posted them on Twitter.[15]
  • In December 2014, thePROFECO suspended the commercial activity of Magnicharters because the company did not release its prices to the public.[16]
  • On 26 November 2015 another landing gear problem on aBoeing 737-300 occurred and caused the left main leg to fail and sway the aircraft, but without any injuries. A photo labelled "MEXICO AIRPORT FIRE DEPT" shows the left main gear leg displaced to the rear, with a broken wing root fairing. This points out not to a folded LG, but a structural failure.[citation needed]
