Need a Car For After Your Flight?

Looking for low cost flights to Mexico? Orbitz can help save you time and money so you have more of both for exploring!

Flights to Mexico

International flights to Mexico land at any one of many international airports around the country. Mexico City, Acapulco, Cancun, and Guadalajara are major tourist destinations, and most airlines fly into all four of these cities. If you want to explore off the beaten track, there are many more regional and international airports available as well! The Benito Juarez International Airport in Mexico City is indicative of airports throughout the country. Providing nonstop service to North, South, Central America, and Europe, it is the only Mexican airport that also provides service direct to Asia. It is served by United Airlines and Delta, and is a hub port for Aeromexico, and a secondary hub for the Aeromexico Connect subsidiary. The other major international airports in Mexico have similar services.

Mexico Weather

Mexican weather is determined by latitude and altitude. The higher into the hills and mountains you go, the cooler it gets. In general, Mexico has a dry season and a wet season, and temperatures vary by region. Take care traveling during hurricane season, which lasts from June to November. Traveling during these months isn't discouraged, but take precautions in case of large storms. In general, you will want to check the weather reports for the region of Mexico you are visiting: variations in altitude and proximity to the oceans can create great variations in average temperature from region to region.

Getting Around Mexico

Once you have disembarked from your Mexico flights, there are many ways to get around the country. The country has good roads and a comprehensive bus network. Buses come in several price points: premium, first class, second class, and luggage is generally safe when stowed in the baggage hold. Make sure you get a receipt for it when you check it, however, and keep your passport and other valuables in the cabin with you, closely protected from pickpockets! Driving yourself may be a bit more complicated than driving in your home country, but it can be a good way to transport surfboards or other ungainly baggage, or to get to places off the beaten road, where you'd otherwise have to risk hitchhiking!

Mexico Attractions

After your Mexico flights land, you will want to explore the area. The country is vast and varied, and each region has lots to do, see, and explore. Take your time to relax or jump on a whirlwind tour: the choices are yours. Some major attractions include:

  • Piramidi di Teotihuacan. Step pyramids near Mexico City that you can climb.
  • Cancun, one of Mexico's most popular destinations, featuring snorkeling, swimming with dolphins, horseback riding, bars, and restaurants open into the night.
  • Museum of Anthropology, with an extensive collection to folk dancers and street food in the courtyards.
  • Punta Mia, one of Puerto Vallarta's best diving and surfing spots.
  • Cathedral Basilica of Durango, a colonial treasure in the north of the country.

    Frequently asked questions

    Which airlines fly to Mexico?
    Book a fare with one of the 12 airlines that operate services to Mexico City Intl. Airport (MEX) and get set for new adventures. This airport is the entryway for Mexico. When you're ready to discover the region, these quality carriers will take you there:

    • Aeromexico - 1,401 flights to Mexico per month
    • Volaris - 282 flights to Mexico per month
    • United Airlines - 239 flights to Mexico per month

    How much is a flight to Mexico?
    This week, prices fluctuated between $98 and $597 for a round-trip fare to Mexico. One-way tickets departing from New York (JFK) fell as low as $161 over the same time period.
    How to book the cheapest flight to Mexico?
    With some of the most impressive flight deals around, you'll always jet for less with Orbitz. The following tips and hints will help you land cheap flights to Mexico — and leave you with more cash to play with:

    • Depending on where you're taking off from, click on the 'Nearby airports' function (located under the departure and arrival form fields). In some cases, alternative departure points work out cheaper.
    • If you're flexible with your schedule, click on the 'Show flexible dates' option. It'll display the flight deals for the days either side of your selected departure. Fares often vary depending on the day of the week.
    • To filter your results, hit 'Show options.' You can search based on seating class, airlines, and nonstop and refundable flights. You can also choose whether you want to fly in the morning, afternoon or evening under 'Sort & Filter' to the left.
    • The early bird catches the most rewarding deals, so book as soon as you've worked out your travel dates. The most affordable airfares go like hotcakes and prices normally rise as the departure date gets closer.
    • Think about bundling your flights, hotels and car rentals into a package deal to get more for your money.
    • Where possible, avoid traveling during the busy season. Airfares often hit their highest during summer, school breaks and around other vacation times like Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    What is the best time to book a flight to Mexico?
    Generally speaking, January is the cheapest month to book your plane ticket. This is followed by February and August. Bear this in mind while tracking down a cheap flight to Mexico.
    What day of the week is the cheapest to book a flight to Mexico?
    When it comes to cheap airfares to Mexico, the best days to make a booking are generally Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. An unbeatable flight deal is just a few clicks away with Orbitz.
    What is the cheapest day of the week to fly to Mexico?
    You can nab cheap flights to Mexico by taking off on a Monday, according to Orbitz data from 2020. Tuesday is the next cheapest day, while Saturday has the most expensive airfares. Whether you prefer to save money or fly whenever is convenient, you'll always get a fantastic deal with Orbitz.
    What is the cheapest month to fly to Mexico?
    We won't keep you guessing — according to Orbitz data, August is generally the most affordable month to fly. Perfect for those who need a weekend getaway or simply escape from it all before the weather changes. The most expensive time to fly is in the middle of summer, with airfares at their highest in June.
    Which airlines allow free cancellation?
    We understand that plans change and flexibility matters. That's why you can search for flights that have free cancellation and no change fees on Orbitz. Simply click on "Filter by flexible change policies" and we'll show you fares more flexible than a lip balm left in the sun!
    What do I need for the flight to Mexico?
    There's so much to sort out for any big journey, so it's good to get a little bit of help before you set out. Here are a few tips to ensure that you're organized for departure:

    • Travel documents such as e-tickets and identification are a must. To avoid any unwanted delays when checking in, make sure your booking is made with the same name, birth date and gender as listed on your government-issued ID.
    • Stock your carry-on bag with snacks and activities and you'll easily pass the time on this medium-haul flight. If possible, join the airport's Wi-Fi and transfer your favorite podcast or playlist to your phone or tablet before take off.
    • Airplane cabins often get quite cold. If you decide to fly during the height of summer, make sure you take an extra warm layer just in case.

    How do I get cheap first-class/business deals to Mexico?
    Experienced travelers have mastered the art of finding first or business-class flights to Mexico without the steep price tag. Be like them with these handy tips:

    • Flexibility is essential. By being open to a variety of travel dates, you'll have better odds of landing a deal on business or first-class airfares.
    • Budget airlines offer first or business-class seats at a fraction of the usual cost. Ditch the full-service carriers and consider these cheaper options.
    • Take advantage of your airline's loyalty scheme and upgrade your seat. Alternatively, you can try bidding for an upgrade in an online auction if available.

    What is the best time to go to Mexico?
    Anytime is a fantastic time to go to Mexico, though February, March and April are the most popular months. For most places in the Northern Hemisphere, the summer commences June 20. If you'd rather spend most of your days in a light T-shirt than a heavy winter jacket, this time of the year may suit you perfectly. Expect average daily highs of 85 ºF and nighttime lows around 75 ºF.
    Travel tips for Mexico

    • The possibilities for adventure in Mexico are endless — and Xcaret Eco Theme Park is just one place you'll find it. Grab a car rental, find out how to get to this sought-after attraction and then get cruisin'!
    • If you enjoy the excitement and buzz of major cities, start your getaway in Cancun. This lively destination is the first port of call for many travelers to the area.
