Aeromexico airline review '17

From San Francisco, I'm positioning towards Mexico City for my latam airlines flight to Easter island. At that time, aeromexico seems to be offering the cheapest fare between Mexico City and San Francisco. So I decided to book the fare before it increases nearer the date. Not sure whether it's a bargain though.

Anyway, this gave me a chance to fly on aeromexico for the first time, economy class on the outbound and business class on the inbound back to San Francisco.

Both flights are operated by the B737 narrowbody aircraft. Business class is set up with recliner seats, similar to a domestic first class seat. On the return trip, business class was mostly empty while economy class seems full. One reason is probably there were two aeromexico flights from Mexico city to San Francisco departing about one hour apart. Mine was the later flight.

Haven't seen this kind of aircraft window

Business class meal on Aeromexico. Everythig was served on a tray. Tasted fine, but unmemorable.

Aeromexico is a full-service airline. Complimentary meal is provided in economy class. But check-in luggage is payable.

On the whole, Aeromexico is a decent airline for both economy and business class. If the price is right, I will fly on it again.
