After booking a last-minute long weekend trip to Cancun, I needed to find a good way to get there from NYC. I hadn't flown with AeroMexico before, and since the airline was offering nonstop service on the departure day I needed, I decided to test it out.
One-way fares from New York (JFK) to Cancn International Airport (CUN) were going for $280 at the time, so we used The Platinum Card from American Express to book directly with the airline so I'd earn 5x Membership Rewards points, yielding me a total of 1,400 MR points for this one-way flight.
Those looking to redeem Delta SkyMiles can book this flight from 17,500 miles one-way. While there was no availability when I was searching for my flight, you should be able to find at least a few days open if you plan your trip farther in advance and have more flexibility with your travel dates than I did.
A few days before my flight, I looked up my reservation on AeroMexico's site and saw the option to upgrade to an AM Plus seat, which offered several more inches of legroom. I figured it was worth buying paying a little more for the privilege of being able to spread out during such an early flight, so I paid the additional $79 with my Citi Prestige Card, which offers a $250 airline credit and had the charge credited back to my account a few days later.
In order to check my bag, I had to go from the check-in desk to another line. Once I finally made it to the front, I used my Ritz-Carlton Rewards Credit Card to pay the $25 fee, which I've since had credited back to me thanks to the card's nifty $300 annual travel credit.
If I had been at the airport later in the day, I could've visited the Air France lounge in T1, which I had access to through Priority Pass. It wasn't open yet, so instead, I bought an overpriced bagel sandwich and a water from an eatery near the gate.
This AeroMexico 737-800 has a total of 160 seats that are divided into three classes. First class is known as Clase Premier and is comprised of 16 recliner seats in a 2-2 configuration that are 21 inches wide, with 39 inches of pitch.
AM Plus is AeroMexico's extra legroom economy product. There are 18 of these seats arranged in a 3-3 pattern, with each measuring in at 17 inches wide, with 34 inches of pitch. The AM Plus seats sported gray headrests that had AM Plus branding to help distinguish them from the regular economy seats.
This aircraft has 126 regular economy seats arranged in a 3-3 pattern, each of them with 17 inches of width and a tighter 31 inches of pitch. Overall, the cabin looks fresh and new, and reminded me of some of the newer Delta 737s that I've flown on before.
I chose 7F, a window seat in the AM Plus section. There was a slim blanket waiting for me there, which was an unexpected surprise. While the blanket itself wasn't anything special, I consider anything that goes beyond what the major US carriers offer to be a perk.
As I mentioned above, I believe upgrading to the AM Plus seat was worth it because I was able to stretch out a little more. I was trying to get some sleep for much of the flight and was more than happy to have the extra bit of legroom. Plus, the extra fee I paid was eventually credited back to me as part of the Citi Prestige Card's $250 annual airline credit, so it was a win-win.
There was a great selection of pre-loaded movies, as well as TV shows, a real-time airshow and special content designed for kids. If I had been more awake, I wouldn't have had any trouble finding a movie to watch.
Instead, I aimlessly watched the airshow whenever I wasn't sleeping. And while the screen wasn't as big as some of the ones you'd find in business class, the graphics were sharp and the screen responded quickly.
This plane wasn't equipped with Wi-Fi, which wasn't all that surprising to me because it's such a leisure-heavy route and Wi-Fi isn't likely to be as important to travelers as it would be on other flights. However, that alone could dissuade some from picking the carrier on this route.
I did show up to the gate after boarding began as I was relaxing in the Salon premier lounge. I do believe that typically skyteam elite and business class ticket holders do get priority boarding through the sky priority lane.
Once on board, service was great. The 737-800 has a small business class cabin. Just 4 rows of business class recliners in a 22 configuration. Each seat has a leg rest and a tv. The seats are the typical business class seats and configuration found on most airlines in North America. The only exception was the leg rest.
Upon boarding the plane each passenger was provided with a sanitizing wipe. In Club Premier, aka business class, there is also a thin blanket at each seat. Flight attendants later came by with earbuds for passengers.
The leg rest are a great addition and were very comfortable. The recline was also greater than I am used to on most flights within North America. Nothing like a lay flat seat, but very comfortable for a 6 hour flight. Overall a very comfortable clase premier seat. Below is a picture of the leg rest.
Water and a beverage of our choice was offered. I opted for a glass of red wine. Dinner is on a single plate. The hot dishes are covered with tinfoil. Throughout meal service beverage refills were offered.
The meal was quite tasty for a flight within North America. Better than most meals I am used to. The salad could use more vegetables as the iceberg lettuce leaves a lot to be desired. Otherwise, a good meal for a 6 hour flight between Mexico City and Seattle. After meal service, about 2 hours before landing a snack basket was available for business class passengers. Between mean service and the snack basket flight attendants mostly remained in the galley. Yet, whenever someone pressed their call light, the cabin crew quickly came to serve the passenger with a smile.
As this was a medium haul flight the service is different from a long haul business class flight. For example there are no amenity kits or lie flat seats. The flights on the 737 offer comfort common to other carriers operating narrow body planes. Overall Aeromexico is a fantastic full service airline when it comes to everything from the service to the onboard wi fi and meals. Color me impressed, but it seems as though this is one airline that is greatly improving.

Aeromexico has updated its business class aboard the 737-800 to new seats that are slightly more comfortable than a typical domestic first class seat in the USA. The 16-seat cabin (four rows of 2-2) has 39 inches of seat pitch and a legrest.
