Mexico City: €505 Aeromexico Flights from Barcelona (Incl. 23 kg Hold Luggage)

SkyTeam member Aeromexico is offering a deal from Barcelona to Mexico City starting at just €505. This deal includes 23kg checked luggage and seat selection, which is not usual with Aeromexico. Departures are available from September to March 2025 with blackout dates in December.

Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to Aeromexico or Skyscanner with your selected flight dates. From Skyscanner, you can proceed to check check what OTAs have to offer, as they sell these tickets up to €30 cheaper.

First, you will take a feeder flight with Air Europa to Madrid or with Air France to Paris, and then continue on an Aeromexico Boeing 787 for your transatlantic flight to Mexico City. These planes feature a 3-3-3 cabin configuration in economy class.

This deal is a Classic fare, providing you with 25 kg of checked luggage and complimentary seat selection, which typically costs around €200 extra with Aeromexico.

Search & Book

This deal will expire on May 23, 2024. A minimum stay of a Saturday overnight stay, and a maximum stay of six months applies. Departures are available from September to March 2025 with blackout dates in December.

You can find suitable dates using our calendar above or with the help of Google Flights. We recommend booking directly on Aeromexico’s website, but you can find cheaper prices with Skyscanner. However, booking on OTAs has its downsides. In some dates in September, the website Trip.com offers tickets with shorter layovers compared to Skyscanner or Aeromexico.

Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?

More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:

Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.

If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.

This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.

Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.

This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.

Miles & Points

This ticket is issued in booking class R. Here are the miles and points you can earn from this deal:

Information & Tips for Mexico

Mexico offers diverse attractions such as the ancient ruins of Chichen Itza, the beaches of Cancún and Playa del Carmen, and vibrant cities like Mexico City and Guadalajara. The currency is the Mexican peso (MXN), and credit cards are widely accepted, though cash is useful in smaller towns. Prices are generally affordable, with a wide range depending on location and type of service. The climate varies from tropical along the coasts to more temperate inland, with the dry season from November to April being the most popular time to visit.

Mexico’s transport infrastructure varies widely. In major cities like Mexico City, public transit includes a large metro system, buses, and taxis, though congestion and safety concerns can be issues. Ride-hailing apps are popular in urban areas. Between cities, long-distance buses are common, affordable, and cover most routes, while domestic flights offer faster but more expensive options. Road conditions outside major highways can be uneven, and travel times may be long.
