Aeroméxico Mexico City-Nassau and Montego Bay flights: schedule guide

Aeroméxico plans to add two nonstop Caribbean routes from Mexico City in March 2027. Montego Bay service is scheduled to begin on March 18, followed by Nassau on March 19. Each route is planned three times a week and remains subject to government approval.

The flights are already visible for sale on Aeroméxico's own route pages. That is useful evidence that travelers can price an itinerary, but it is not a guarantee that every date, time or aircraft will remain unchanged before launch.

The short answer: Aeroméxico plans Mexico City-Montego Bay flights on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from March 18, 2027, and Mexico City-Nassau flights on Friday, Saturday and Sunday from March 19. Both are scheduled as nonstop services, but government approval and the live booking should be checked before relying on them.

Aeroméxico's published Caribbean schedules

The current schedules use local times. Saturday's Montego Bay flights are one hour later than the Thursday and Sunday flights:

The timetable comes from the published schedule filing and is consistent with the launch dates and general timings reported when sales opened. Search the exact travel date on the Aeroméxico Nassau page or Aeroméxico Montego Bay page before paying.

What government approval means for a booking

The routes have been announced and are on sale, yet the launch reports still describe them as subject to government approval. Treat the issued ticket and any later Aeroméxico notice as the authority for a particular trip.

For a wedding, cruise, onward island flight or other fixed commitment, use flexible terms where possible. A three-times-weekly route also leaves fewer same-airline recovery choices than a daily service if the first flight is disrupted.

Do not cancel a workable alternative merely because a new flight appears in a search result. Confirm the date, airport codes, operating carrier and approval status in Aeroméxico's live booking flow first.

The aircraft is not settled for every date

The schedule filing lists a Boeing 737 MAX 8. The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism announcement says the Nassau service may use a 737-800, 737 MAX 8 or 737 MAX 9 depending on operations.

Those statements are not identical, so a traveler should not choose a seat or cabin based on the announcement alone. Check the aircraft and seat map attached to the selected flight, and check again closer to departure because an operational substitution can change both.

Allow a sensible Mexico City connection

Passengers arriving in Mexico City from another flight need to verify the complete transfer path, not just the headline layover. International arrival formalities, terminal movement, baggage collection and rechecking depend on the origin, destination, ticket and operating airlines.

If every flight is on one ticket, ask at the first airport where the checked bag is tagged and what must happen at MEX. If the Caribbean flight is on a separate ticket, allow for delay, baggage delivery, a new check-in cutoff and security. An overnight stay can be safer than a short self-transfer before a route that operates only three days a week.

Plan the Nassau arrival beyond the airport

Nassau's Lynden Pindling International Airport says arriving passengers clear Bahamas Immigration, collect checked baggage and then pass through Bahamas Customs. Travelers continuing to another Bahamian island may still need a separate domestic flight or ferry after arriving in Nassau.

That onward leg deserves its own buffer. Do not build a tight same-day connection from the scheduled 3:00 p.m. arrival without checking the next operator's terminal, baggage and cutoff rules.

The Bahamas sets entry requirements by citizenship and residence. Its official guidance says Latin American visitors generally need a passport valid for at least six months, a return or onward ticket, accommodation details and proof of funds if requested. Verify the rule for the passport actually used, since individual circumstances can change the answer.

Complete Jamaica's arrival form before Montego Bay

Jamaica's official visitor guidance says all passengers arriving by air or cruise ship must complete the online C5 Passenger Declaration. It also says visitors need a return or onward ticket, while visa and document rules vary with citizenship and residence.

Complete the form only through the official link supplied by Jamaica, and keep the confirmation and accommodation address accessible offline. For the trip home, build the airport journey around the airline's stated check-in time rather than a best-case drive from the resort.

Baggage depends on the fare, not the route map

Aeroméxico's fare families include different seat, carry-on, checked-bag, change and refund conditions. A low displayed fare does not prove that a checked bag or seat selection is included.

Read the final fare comparison before payment and the issued ticket afterward. Aeroméxico's current carry-on guidance says the combined allowance for a carry-on and personal item varies by fare. If another airline operates a connecting segment, check which carrier's baggage rules apply to the itinerary.

Keep medication, travel documents and permitted valuables in the personal item. A cabin bag can still be gate-checked when overhead space or operations require it.

Mobile data in Mexico, the Bahamas and Jamaica

For the route origin, compare the Mexico OpenSim eSIM. Travelers ending in Nassau can compare the Bahamas OpenSim eSIM, while Montego Bay travelers can compare the Jamaica OpenSim eSIM.

The current Caribbean regional product includes Jamaica but does not list the Bahamas, so it is not presented as a single solution for both new destinations. Always check the live destination list rather than inferring coverage from a regional name.

Review the selected plan's allowance, validity, speed, hotspot terms and top-up field before checkout. Not every plan can be topped up. Install on reliable Wi-Fi before departure, follow the package's activation instructions, and turn off data roaming on the usual SIM if avoiding home-carrier charges is important.

Ten questions about Aeroméxico's new Caribbean flights

Are the Mexico City-Nassau and Montego Bay flights operating now?

No. They are planned for March 2027. Aeroméxico is displaying fares, but the services have not reached their launch dates and remain subject to government approval.

When does Aeroméxico start flying to Montego Bay?

The planned first date is March 18, 2027. AM758 and AM759 are scheduled on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.

When does Aeroméxico start flying to Nassau?

The planned first date is March 19, 2027. AM740 and AM741 are scheduled on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Why is Saturday's Montego Bay time different?

The filed schedule places Saturday's AM758 and AM759 one hour later than the Thursday and Sunday flights. Use the local time shown for the exact date in the live booking.

Can I book the flights before final government approval?

Aeroméxico's route pages currently show dated fare examples, so the flights are being sold. Read the fare and change conditions, and keep the approval caveat in mind before making non-refundable plans around them.

Which aircraft will Aeroméxico use?

A Boeing 737 MAX 8 appears in the schedule filing, while the Bahamas ministry lists the 737-800, MAX 8 and MAX 9 as possible Nassau aircraft. The seat map for the selected flight is the more useful reference.

Is a short connection in Mexico City enough?

It depends on the arriving flight, terminals, immigration and baggage steps, and whether the itinerary is protected on one ticket. Separate tickets need a larger buffer because the second carrier may not protect a missed flight.

Will my checked bag transfer automatically in Mexico City?

Do not assume it will. Ask at the first airport where the bag is tagged and whether collection or rechecking is required at MEX. The answer can change with the origin, destination, ticket and operating airlines.

What documents do I need for the Bahamas or Jamaica?

The answer depends on citizenship and residence. Check the official destination rules for the passport being used. Jamaica also requires the online C5 Passenger Declaration, and both destinations may ask for onward-travel details.

Does an OpenSim eSIM include calls or my usual phone number?

OpenSim travel plans are for mobile data unless a live package explicitly says otherwise. Data can support messaging and internet calling apps, but it does not replace a voice or SMS number. Keep the usual SIM available only for services you need and understand its roaming costs.

A practical booking check

Start with the route and date on Aeroméxico's official site. Confirm MEX, NAS or MBJ, the flight number, local times, operating carrier and fare-specific baggage before payment. Then check destination entry rules and leave a realistic margin for any connection or onward island transfer.

The new nonstops remove an intermediate stop for many Mexico-Caribbean trips. Their value is real, but the safest plan still treats March 2027 as a future launch and checks the live itinerary again before departure.
