What to do about an Aeroméxico delay or cancellation
General guidance plus what Aeroméxico's own Customer Service Plan commits to. Your specific rights depend on the route and cause.
Confirm the current status at aeromexico.com or in the app before you head to the airport, schedules shift quickly during disruptions, and your connection time may change with them.
Aeroméxico's Customer Service Plan commits to notifying passengers of delays of 30 minutes or more within 30 minutes of the airline becoming aware. If your app hasn't updated, the counter may still know more, and so may we.
For delays, misconnections and cancellations within Aeroméxico's control that leave you overnight, the plan provides a meal allowance and an Aeroméxico-contracted hotel. Weather is typically outside that, ask us to press for what applies to your exact case.
Aeroméxico's runway-delay plan follows the US DOT framework: the option to deplane before 3 hours on domestic or 4 hours on international tarmac delays, food and water no later than 2 hours in, and status updates every 30 minutes.
Volunteering gets you transportation credit. If you're bumped involuntarily and no same-day rebooking is possible, the plan provides a meal and a hotel or a hotel-value voucher.
The plan sets a 24-hour target for delivering delayed baggage. Keep your bag receipts and file before leaving the airport, then let us follow it up.
Rights and remedies vary by route and cause, and airline plans change. We don't quote compensation amounts, call us with your flight and we'll tell you your realistic options and act on them fast. Checking status at aeromexico.com is free.
What Aeroméxico's own plan commits to
From the airline's published Customer Service Plan; causes outside its control work differently.
Delayed or cancelled, what you're generally owed
General guidance; your rights depend on the route and the cause.
Within Aeroméxico's control
Strongest position
- Rebooking or refund is the general baseline
- Overnight: meals and a contracted hotel under the plan
- Misconnections the airline caused get worked
- Keep every notice for a later claim
Outside its control
More conditional
- Weather and similar causes carry fewer commitments
- Rebooking still happens, priorities just differ
- Travel insurance may pick up what the airline doesn't
- We'll tell you honestly which case is yours
