Tips for Cheap New York to Mexico City Flights

1Fly into Mexico City's newer Felipe Angeles Airport (NLU) instead of Benito Juarez (MEX) for potentially cheaper fares and shorter immigration lines. Uber to the city center runs about $20-25.
2Book flights for Tuesday, Wednesday, or Saturday departures when business travel is lower. You'll save $75-150 compared to Monday and Friday flights favored by business travelers and weekend trippers.
3Volaris and Viva Aerobus offer ultra-low fares ($200-300 roundtrip) but charge for everything extra. If traveling light with just a personal item, these Mexican carriers provide unbeatable value.
4Visit during shoulder season (April-May or September-October) for ideal weather and lower prices. You'll avoid rainy summer months and peak winter holidays while enjoying cultural events and perfect temps.
5Set alerts for JetBlue and Aeromexico flash sales, which happen 4-6 times yearly. These sales can drop NYC-Mexico City flights to $250-300 roundtrip, sometimes with Mint upgrades at steep discounts.

💡Savings tip: Book 6-8 weeks ahead for the best New York to Mexico City fares. Flexibility with dates can save you 20-30%.
