1950's Photographs (2) - 1 Mexico Airlines + 1 KLM Airlines w/VIP Group?

I found these cleaning out a section of my living room so I could get to the AC & change the filter (yes there is a lot of stuff there I've bought but haven't gotten to yet!).
One is of a old Air Mexico airplane with a group of people in front of it - and something written in spanish on the back; which says something about a excursion?
The 2nd one is possibly something special - it's a group of military? Pilots? in front of a KLM Airlines airplane cira 1950's. Could it be the launching of a new airplane? (PS - there was nothing on back of this photo)
Any thoughts on these would be appreciated; I know old aviation photographs can be valuable.
Thank you!

Registered on a teeny tiny Dutch island first off. In the Netherlands Antilles. Given the white dress tropical uniform, probably taken there. Civilian.

My tame geek has probably seen it.

 

Unless some 'important' person could be identified I'm afraid they won't be valuable. Too much emphasis put on the groups of people to qualify as pricey aviation photos.

 

"Excursion of ENT Specialists to Mexico leaving February 27 1954" (That would explain the fur coats.)

Ah. Just as I expected... There was a Pan-American ENT congresso or conference in México, D.F. that began on February 28 and ran until March 4, 1954. So where was the group flying from? Since you're in Miami, Cuba is most likely.

The other could well be an inaugural flight. You might want to research when KLM opened its Latin American routes.

Will check out KLM inaugural flight Debora - if it was registered on a small dutch island in the Antilles in 1953 like the link Ownedbybear gave me- then it may be a first flight!

 

Think this may be the connection. The Corsair 340 was delivered to the Netherland Antilles in the same year, 1954.
