Mexico City: €305 Non-Stop From Madrid With Iberia & Aeromexico

Oneworld member Iberia, as well as Aeromexico, are currently selling tickets for non-stop flights between Madrid and Mexico City at very reasonable prices. You can purchase tickets for your round-trip starting at only €305. If you don’t mind a layover on your way back, you can reduce this amount even more to €294 for Oneworld flights.

If you opt for the non-stop connection, the flight time will be between 11 and 12 hours onboard an Iberia Airbus A340 or an Aeromexico Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Cheaper trips that include a layover are operated by British Airways on the long-haul segment and will take you from Mexico to Marid via London.

Search & Book

The fare rules for this deal state that tickets for Oneworld flights should be sold until January 31st. Those for trips with Aeromexico until January 21st. But as always, the cheap seats might sell out way earlier. So don’t hesitate too long if you’re interested in the deal. Reservations with Iberia have to be made at least 10 days in advance.

Minimum stay requirements are for five days (Oneworld) or seven days (SkyTeam), and your latest return flight has to take place 3 months after your departure from Europe. Aeromexico is more generous and allows for a stay of up to 12 months

Since Google Flights (instructions) is the easiest way to search for the best connections, we recommend you use the tool to see if dates that work for you are available. Then, either book on the carrier’s website or use our Travel Dealz flight search to compare prices – and maybe save money.

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.

Mileage

Oneworld

All tickets will be issued in booking class O. Even though the tickets are highly discounted, the earning rate is still 25% on most Oneworld frequent flyer programs. Here’s what a direct flight will get you:

SkyTeam

If you’re flying with Aeromexico, your booking class will be V. This can get you up 50% of the distance miles with many SkyTeam frequent flyer programs:
