Aeromexico change rules by fare type

The Aeromexico flight change policy is built on "branded fares." Each one has fixed change rules, shown on your e-ticket and in your booking confirmation. From least to most flexible:

Light

No changes and non-refundable. Launched in 2026 on selected routes.
Basic

No changes to flight, date, time or destination. Same-day changes are not permitted.
Classic

Changes allowed for a fee plus any fare difference. On flights from the US to Mexico, the first change is free (fare difference may apply). Non-refundable.
AM Plus & Premier

Same change structure as Classic, with more comfort. The newer AM Plus Basic and Premier Basic fares, sold in Mexico on selected US routes, follow their own conditions, so check your ticket.
Flex versions

Classic Flex, AM Plus Flex, Premier Flex and Premier One Flex: unlimited changes to flight, date, time or destination with no change fee and no no-show charge. Subject to availability.

Aeromexico change fee by route

These are Aeromexico's published change fees for Classic fares. The lower figure applies in low season, the higher in high season. Changes within 7 days of departure sit at the top of each range.

Aeromexico Classic fare change fees (per passenger, before taxes)
Route region	Change fee	Name change fee
United States	US$200	US$110
Canada	US$160–180	US$110
Central America & Caribbean	US$215–235	US$110
Colombia, Peru, Ecuador	US$215–235	US$110
Argentina, Brazil, Chile	US$320–340	US$110
France, Netherlands	US$215–235	US$160
Rest of Europe	US$320–340	US$160
Japan	US$300–320	US$160
Domestic Mexico	MXN 700–1,000	MXN 1,200

Domestic Mexico: MXN 700 when you change 8 or more days before departure, MXN 1,000 within 7 days (tickets booked after 28 March 2023). International fees exclude taxes, which vary by country of purchase. Fees can change; confirm on your ticket before you pay.

Change fee vs. fare difference

A change usually costs two things. The change fee is Aeromexico's fixed charge for your fare and route. The fare difference is the gap between what you paid and today's price for the new flight. A "free change" removes the fee, but you may still pay a fare difference.

Example: You paid US$420 for a Classic round trip from Chicago to Mexico City and move your return by a week. The new fare is US$470.

Your cost: US$200 change fee + US$50 fare difference = US$250. If the trip started in the US, the first change is free, so you pay only the US$50.

Which Aeromexico fare is right if your plans might change?

The cheapest fare is not always the cheapest trip. Light and Basic fares cannot be changed at all, Classic fares charge a fee on most routes, and Flex fares remove the fee. To decide, compare the price gap between Classic and Flex with the change fee you could pay, which is US$200 on US routes and up to US$340 on most of Europe and South America.

If you fly from the United States to Mexico on Classic or AM Plus, the first change is free, so that single change costs only any fare difference. For a trip you may need to move more than once, or one that departs from outside that rule, a Flex fare usually protects you better. If your dates are fixed, a cheaper fare can be the better deal.

Aeromexico date change and rescheduling

You can move your flight to another date, time or destination on Classic, AM Plus, Premier and Flex fares, subject to seats being available. Aeromexico requires changes at least 3 hours before departure. If you don't change or notify the airline in time, no further changes are allowed unless you hold a Flex fare.

Aeromexico 24-hour rule

For flights to or from the United States, US Department of Transportation rules let you change or cancel without penalty within 24 hours of booking, as long as you booked at least 7 days before departure. This applies even to Basic fares. Outside that window, your fare's normal rules apply.

Cancel an Aeromexico flight and refunds

To cancel an Aeromexico flight, open Manage Your Booking with your reservation code and last name. Inside the 24-hour window on an eligible US flight you can cancel without penalty. Outside it, Light and Classic fares are non-refundable, so a voluntary cancellation generally does not return cash, and a cheaper replacement flight usually does not refund the difference. If Aeromexico cancels or significantly changes your flight, you are offered alternatives, and on flights to or from the United States you are entitled to a refund if you decline the new schedule. If you booked through an agency, the refund goes through the agency.

Aeromexico name correction and name change

Misspelled names are corrected free of charge; you'll need to show official ID. An Aeromexico name change to a different person costs extra (see the table above). On international flights it must be done at least 15 days before departure; on domestic Mexico flights, up to 3 hours before. Name changes aren't available on tickets bought in Brazil or paid for with a travel voucher.

Aeromexico no-show policy and missed flights

If you miss a flight without telling Aeromexico first, the rest of your itinerary may be cancelled. On domestic Mexico trips, contact Aeromexico within 24 hours of the missed flight to keep the later segments. Flex fares carry no no-show charge and can be rebooked. If you know you'll miss a flight, contact whoever issued your ticket before departure.

Aeromexico schedule change

If Aeromexico cancels your flight or changes its timing significantly, it offers alternatives at no change fee. On flights to or from the United States, US rules also entitle you to a refund if you decline the new schedule after a significant change or a cancellation. Don't accept a new itinerary that doesn't work for you before checking your options.

Modify your Aeromexico reservation

On any changeable fare you can modify an Aeromexico reservation in several ways. Each follows the same rules: the change fee for your fare and route, plus any fare difference, subject to availability.

Change the return flight only

You can reschedule just the return of a round trip and keep your outbound flight. You pay one change fee and the fare difference on the leg you change.

Change the destination or route

Classic, AM Plus, Premier and Flex fares allow a change of destination, not just date or time. Because a new route usually has a different price, expect a larger fare difference.

Change a connecting or multi-city itinerary

You can change one segment of a connecting or multi-city trip, but the rest of the itinerary must still work with the new flight. If a connection breaks, the whole journey may need to be repriced.

Change an international vs. domestic flight

International changes are priced in US dollars by region (see the fee table). Domestic Mexico changes are priced in pesos and depend on how many days remain before departure.

Upgrade instead of changing

Classic fares allow upgrades. If you want more comfort rather than a new date, an upgrade to AM Plus or Premier may cost less than changing the flight.

Aeromexico same-day flight change

On Classic, AM Plus, Premier and Flex fares, you can move to another flight on the same day as long as you make the change at least 3 hours before your original departure. Normal change fees and fare differences apply unless you hold a Flex fare. Basic and Light fares don't allow same-day changes. On domestic Mexico flights, Aeromexico's AM Vuela Flex program can waive the fee and fare difference when you move to an earlier flight on the same day.

Changing Aeromexico tickets booked elsewhere

Booked on Expedia or another online travel site

The site that issued your ticket controls changes, so start there. Aeromexico's fare rules still apply on top of the site's own fees.
