Flying Aeroméxico using Flying Blue Miles

Aeroméxico is Mexico’s flagship airline and operates flights from major Canadian airports hubs like Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver to various destinations in Mexico. Additionally, they provide seamless connections not only to domestic routes within Mexico but also to the Caribbean, South America, and Central America.

During the upcoming winter holidays (14th December 2023 to 14th January 2024) Aeroméxico will increase frequencies from Canadian hubs. Specifically, there will be an increase in daily flights from both Montreal and Toronto, rising from 2 daily to 3 daily, while Vancouver will see an increase from 3 daily flights to 4.

Aeroméxico is a founding member of the SkyTeam alliance, making it easy to redeem for Aeroméxico flights through Flying Blue and other SkyTeam loyalty programs such as Delta Skymiles.

As Flying Blue is an American Express Membership Rewards transfer partner. You can transfer your Membership Rewards into Flying Blue Miles at a ratio of 1,000 Membership Rewards points = 750 Flying Blue Miles.

Securing Aeromexico’s premium cabin flights via FlyingBlue can be exceptionally challenging; as a result, our primary emphasis will be on booking Economy class flights.

Given that Mexico City serves as Aeroméxico’s primary hub and handles the majority of international flights, it presents an excellent opportunity for a city break before embarking on the next leg of your journey further south on the continent.

The fastest way to earn Flying Blue miles is to transfer points from another loyalty program. Flying Blue is a transfer partner of the American Express Membership Rewards program and Marriott Bonvoy.

You can transfer American Express Membership Reward points to Flying Blue at a ratio of 1,000 Membership Rewards points = 750 Flying Blue Miles.

Below, you’ll find the American Express Membership Rewards cards available in Canada.

For accumulating Flying Blue miles, the American Express Cobalt^® Card stands out as the most favorable choice. With this card, you can earn an impressive 3.75 Flying Blue miles for every dollar spent on purchases

The table below offers a clear and direct breakdown of the spending-to-earning ratio across various spending categories.

The American Express Marriott Bonvoy credit cards allow you to accrue Marriott Bonvoy points, which provide you with the flexibility to transfer them to various airline miles, including Flying Blue. However, it’s important to note that the transfer ratio is less favorable, with 3 Marriott Bonvoy points equaling = 1 airline mile.

It’s also worth noting that when you transfer 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points, you’ll earn 5,000 Bonus Miles. So, 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points = 25,000 Flying Blue Miles. It’s best to transfer in increments of 60,000 points.

In addition to the new partnership between Airmiles and Aeroméxico, it is now easier to book an Aeroméxico flight to Mexico or anywhere in the Caribbean and Latin America through the Flying Blue program. Take advantage of the new free stopover feature, which permits you to extend your stay in Mexico City without incurring any additional charges.

Exploring the choice of booking through Flying Blue is worth considering since it frequently provides valuable redemption options compared to Air Canada Aeroplan, British Airways Avios, and Delta Skymiles.
