So basically it has to be somewhere within 737 range. And if it was US they'd have said trans-border. And since the minister of tourism is attending its probably a market that they're hoping to get inbound tourists on (ie not just a beach destination like somewhere in Cuba). And finally, the announcement is at a Mexican restaurant, which makes Mexico seem more likely.
Based on all that I think it's probably Mexico City. They have coverage to basically all the touristy places in Mexico already.
