Aeromexico Carry-On Baggage Policy

Aeromexico generally allows one carry-on bag and one personal item on most fares. Carry-on allowance may vary by ticket type. Based on publicly available information:

• Standard carry-on: typically free on most fare types
• Basic Economy fares may have restrictions
• Size and weight limits apply

For detailed guidance on carry-on and checked baggage rules, see our general baggage guide.

Aeromexico carry-on charges may apply on certain Basic fares, depending on route and fare type.

Note: Aeromexico’s fees depend on two main things: your destination and your ticket’s “fare class.” The Basic Fare often includes no free checked baggage. Classic and Premier Fares usually include at least one piece.

Aeromexico Overweight Baggage Fees

Bags exceeding Aeromexico’s standard weight limits may be subject to additional overweight charges. Based on publicly available information:

• Bags over 55 lbs (25 kg) but under 70 lbs (32 kg) typically incur overweight fees
• Overweight fees generally range from $90-$100 USD per bag
• Maximum weight limits apply (often 70 lbs for checked bags)

Weighing luggage at home before departure can help avoid unexpected overweight baggage costs.

Aeromexico baggage fees and allowances for international flights may differ from domestic routes. Based on publicly available information:

• International routes (Mexico to USA, Canada, Europe) may include different baggage allowances
• Fee structures vary by destination region
• Baggage policies may also depend on fare class and ticket type

For route-specific international baggage fees, checking Aeromexico’s website or your ticket details is recommended.

Exceptions to Aeromexico’s Checked Baggage Fee

Some travelers might be able to check an extra piece of luggage for free. This is based on your loyalty status or who you are traveling with.

Passenger Category	Baggage Exception or Benefit	Key Aeromexico Policy Details
Club Premier Elite/Elite Plus Members	These frequent flyers of Aeromexico receive a benefit: one extra piece of checked baggage free of charge.	The free bag must still meet the standard weight and size limits for your purchased ticket. Applies even if you bought a restrictive Basic Fare.
Travelers with Infants (under 2)	Passengers with a child under two years old receive extra allowance for necessary gear.	You can check a stroller, travel bassinet, and a diaper bag at no extra cost. For international flights, one piece of standard luggage (23 kg/50 lb) for the infant is also included.
Clase Premier/Business Class	Passengers flying in this premium cabin automatically receive a higher allowance than economy fares.	You typically get two free checked bags, often with a higher weight limit (32 kg/70 lbs) per piece included in the fare price.

Checking Special Items on Aeromexico: Sports Gear, Musical Instruments & Bulky Luggage

Need to bring a surfboard or a bike? Special items are generally allowed. They are sometimes treated as regular checked baggage, but they may have an additional handling fee attached or be charged for being oversized.

Item Type	Aeromexico Policy and Fees	Important Dimensions/Weight Rule
Sports Gear (Golf, Ski, Scuba, Surf)	Sports equipment is treated as a special bag. You’ll have to pay extra fee separate from the normal baggage cost.	The total weight must be 32 kg (70 lbs) or less. The special handling fee is around $75 USD for domestic travel and $150 USD for international routes.
Musical Instruments	Instruments must be properly packaged in a hard case only. Small instruments may be allowed as a carry-on item.	If being checked, an instrument must not weigh more than 32 kg (70 lb). If it is too large, then the standard oversized baggage fee will be added to the special item fee.
Oversized/Overweight Items	Any luggage that exceeds the standard size of 62 linear inches or 55 lbs (25 kg) incurs an added penalty.	An overweight fee (for bags between 56 and 70 lbs) typically costs about $90 to $100 USD. This fee is charged per bag that exceeds the limit.

Tips to Reduce Aeromexico Baggage Fees

1. Book Your Bags Early: Paying for checked baggage online before arriving at the airport may reduce costs compared to airport pricing.
   
2. Join Club Premier: If you fly Aeromexico often, join their loyalty program. Elite and Elite Plus status often guarantees you an extra free piece of luggage regardless of your fare class.
3. Choose Your Fare Wisely:In some cases, the total cost of a Classic Fare (which includes one checked bag) may be comparable to purchasing a Basic Fare plus baggage separately.
4. Weigh Before You Go: Never guess the weight of your suitcase–Aeromexico’s overweight baggage fee is costly. Use a small luggage scale at home and keep the bag 55 lbs (25 kg) or less.
