How much does Aeromexico charge to change a flight?
Aeroméxico’s flight change fees vary widely depending on your fare type, route, and when you request the change. In general, the airline groups tickets into different fare families — from the most restrictive Basic fares to more flexible Classic, AM Plus, Flexible, and Premier fares — and each has different change costs.
First, most airlines including Aeroméxico allow free changes within 24 hours of purchase if the ticket was bought at least seven days before departure. This “grace period” lets you correct mistakes or adjust plans without paying a change fee, though this only applies right after booking.
Beyond that window, Basic fares — often the cheapest options — are typically non-changeable. If you try to modify a Basic ticket after the 24-hour period, you may not be permitted to change at all, or you may be forced to cancel and repurchase a new flight instead.
For Classic and AM Plus fares, which are more flexible, change fees apply and they vary depending on where you’re flying:
- Domestic flights within Mexico: Aeroméxico usually charges approximately MXN 700 (~USD $40) if you make the change 8 or more days before departure, and around MXN 1,000 (~USD $55) if changed within seven days of travel.
- International flights (U.S., Canada, Central/South America, Caribbean): These routes commonly incur change fees around MXN 4,020 (~USD $210).
- Long-haul flights (e.g., Europe or Asia): Change fees for these intercontinental routes can be as high as MXN 6,030 (~USD $320).
In addition to the specific change fee, you must pay any fare difference between your original ticket and the new flight if the new flight is more expensive. That means even after you pay the change fee, you could owe more depending on current prices.
Some sources note slightly different rounding or ranges — for example, international and cross-border flights may range roughly between $100–$300+ USD in change fees, and domestic changes in Mexico often fall on the lower end, around $40–$100 USD equivalent. These figures are estimates and can vary by point of sale and currency conversion.
More flexible fare families such as Flexible or Premier fares (and certain business or premium tickets) may allow changes with no change fee at all. In these cases, you still pay any fare difference, but the penalty fee itself may be waived. This makes these fare types more adaptable if you know your travel plans may change.
To change a flight, you can do so online via “Manage My Booking” on Aeroméxico’s website, through their mobile app, by calling customer service, or sometimes at the airport. Changing earlier generally gives you more options and potentially lower fees than last-minute changes, which can be stricter or more expensive.
In summary: Aeroméxico change fees vary from no charge within 24 hours to about MXN 700–1,000 (~$40–$55) for domestic changes, around MXN 4,020 (~$210) for many international flights, and up to MXN 6,030 (~$320) for longer-haul routes, plus any fare difference. Basic fares often don’t allow changes at all, while Flexible/Premier tickets may waive change fees.
