Mexico City Airport Guide to lounges, sleeping, etc. by SleepinginAirports.net
Venustiano Carranza is one of the 16 boroughs (delegaciones) of the Federal District; it serves Mexico City, and is located 3.1 miles / 5 km east of downtown (getting there takes significantly longer than you would think; traffic can be very congested). The airport is one of the oldest, opening in 1928, and is limited by two runways at high altitude (7,316 ft / 2,230 m above MSL) and can not expand due to encroaching population. Recent attempts to open a new, higher capacity airport were ended by the new President, so this airport, Latin America's second busiest, will do for now.
NOTE: See post 380 (23 May 2018, by BenA) for information on the new automated passport reading kiosks in Terminal 2 and a shorter option to lengthy arrivals queues.
FLIGHT INFORMATION: http://www.aicm.com.mx/informacional.../fids/fids.php
CONNECTIONS: Check to see if you need to connect between terminals, and allow plenty of time for that. See MEX Connection Times international / domestic master thread
Interterminal Transportation - Aerotrén / Air Train: The landside elevated Aerotrén APM (Automated People Mover) claims to move only those connecting passengers with boarding passes between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. It consists of two to four cars, each with 25 passenger (with baggage and hand carry) capacity, per train, which travels at 28 MPH / 45 kph over the 1.9 mi / 3 km range. Time en route is 4:40 (min), dwell time in each terminal is 60 seconds, time between trains is 10:45 (min).
Aerotrén route
Interterminal Transportation - Landside red shuttle busses[/B] operate 05:00 (am) to 01:00 (am), also used during Aerotrén breakdowns, are labeled ""Transportación entre Terminales"; the stops are at entrance No. 6 of Terminal 1 and entrance No. 4 of Terminal 2. They are air conditioned, have luggage spaces and are wheelchair-accessible.
MEX airport map
ARRIVING: If you are arriving from an international flight without a connection (you are terminating at MEX), you must have your forms filled out - see Requirements for visiting Mexico as a tourist ("tourist card", visa etc.).
You may have a lengthy walk down the glassed-in arrivals corridor. This corridor has glass door controlled areas to allow people from the departures area cross through the arrivals corridor (like using an air lock), so you could be detained by a boarding aircraft. In one instance we were detained nearly fifteen minutes enough route from the 30s gate as a TACA flight boarded and our passage was blocked by glass doors.
Proceed to the corridor end and down one floor to the not-so-well marked exits for "Migración" and proceed to the sometimes lengthy queues to present your passport and documents. Your tourist card will be stamped and you will be given a portion back - turn it in on your departure (if you lose it, expect to pay a fine and have to spend some time with formalities). (When you check in at MEX, the form will be stapled to your boarding pass, and removed at the boarding gate - if somehow you do not have it at counter or gate, you'll have to return landslide and fill out forms and pay a MXN 307.00 fine.
Once your passport is stamped and your "Tourist Card" / FMM is validated, proceed to the baggage carousels and look for your flight to be displayed. Carts are available. Retrieve your baggage and proceed to "ADUANA", where you will queue up one more time.Normally, as you approach the customs kiosk, you will walk up to what looks like a small traffic light / robot and press the large button; a Green light means you can proceed, a Red light means further Customs formalities and inspection. You normally then put your bags on a conveyor belt for x-ray screening, As your bags have been x-rayed prior to delivery you no longer have the x-rayed upon exiting the Aduana hall, though bags may be selected for secondary screening; then you are landside in the arrivals floor scrum.
BAGGAGE STORAGE (link)
If you recover your baggage and have a layover, there are left luggage / baggage storage / GUARDAEQUIPAJE* at AICM, ~100 MXN per day.

OFFSITE TRANSPORTATION:
By taxi: The authorized taxi stands at the airport have "Transporte Terrestre" kiosks where you can buy a ticket to your destination, and then proceed outside to the taxi line to catch the taxi. DO NOT pay attention to touts or walk across the street to pick up unaffiliated or pirate taxis - kidnapping and assault are not unknown if you choose to do this.

You may wish to read over this informative page about using taxis (and the various kinds of taxis available), with particular emphasis on Mexico City taxis.
By Metro: If you have no luggage, you can use the Metro (Line 5 / Yellow Line, station Terminal Aérea) (serves Terminal 1 only - use interterminal shuttle bus to Terminal 2)and connect to your destination (most will connect to other lines at Pantitlán south, or Oceania north of Terminal Aérea). Tickets (and passes) can be purchased from kiosks, and cost $3.00 pesos per trip (~€ 0.15, or ~US$ 0.24). Hours are 05:00 a 24:00 weekdays, starting 06:00 Saturdays, and 07:00 Sundays and holidays.

Catch it on the ground floor of Terminal 1 opposite Gates 6 - 7, and Terminal 2 near the taxi rank on the ground floor / arrivals. Get your tickets from automated kiosks with peso coins or credit card; sweep your card past the validator as you board. See this page (English version) for details.

Walking out of the airport - Taxi Sitio (Rank) (from WikiTravel - http://wikitravel.org/en/Mexico_City)
Be aware the airport is not located in the best area of the city, so it is not recommended for tourists to walk outside the airport terminal in search for cheaper taxi service unless you have pre-arranged your service. Definitely do not attempt this if you are not comfortable speaking Spanish. Despite this, an alternative Taxi Sitio (site) can be reached by using the overpass located outside of Gate D. Taxis here are about half the price of the official airport taxis and are considered secure. This is the Sitio (taxi rank) that is set up for the airline employees.

Have you checked to see if there is another Aeromexico flight departing that night from MEX-SFO? It's possible there is. If so, you could at least grab the next flight. Otherwise I would definitely just bring hand baggage and hope to make the connection.

You can contact Aeroméxico and ask them to put a "TCP note" in the PNR itinerary record to note you are arriving on AZwxyz so if you don't make it there will be a note for the gate and other agents so they hopefully won't cancel the rest of your ticket because they think you were just a "no show".
The technical details (they should know the terminology) are "...add a TCP (To Complete Party) note to the PNR OSI (Other Service Information) field."

Guys thanks for advice
According to your suggestions I have decided to postpone my flight to SFO at 8.15 pm in order to have more than 3 hours to reach the connection.
In that way I think I will also be able to check my baggage in Italy
Thanks again

I will be arriving into MEX, terminal 1 at 6:30am. I understand that one of the T1 AMEX Centurion Clubs is outside security. Will I be able to access the lounge upon arrival (as it will be too early to check into our hotel)? Or, is it not worth visiting? I understand that I won't be able to visit the other lounges in the terminal, as I will have to go through Immigration first.

While I don't mind it getting them from bars in Merida, I wouldn't expect something like that from airport lounges.

I've walked past it many times and I am pretty sure it's a place you'd rather avoid unless you want modelo and cacahuates japoneses.
That said, I'll be there the weekend after next and will do my best to check it out and report back assuming the T2 Centurion hasn't reopened or I don't go into the Banamex Beyond/Citi Prestige thing.

They must have run out of the little buns. In any event, the "showcase" is more like a Costco sample counter. People will just fill up their plates with whatever fine luxury delicacies are placed out for consumption, often while the staff is still trying to put out the elegant display. On a recent trip, I was camped out for quite some time in the high chairs by the showcase, from time to time looking up from my laptop screen to admire the cola de chanchos.

(2) T1 lounge area to gates 29-36 is about 15-20mins. One of the AmEx lounges is pre-security (not sure where the 2nd one is). For the general lounge area, use the security checkpoint closer to the domestic portion; the AmEx lounge is right next to it. Due to "construction", they now make you walk an extra distance to get from the lounges to the gates.

Centurion is still very much under construction.
But rest assured, you can enjoy a view of the construction from the Salon Premier.
I'm standing by my claim that Banamex is the best bet in T2 but was just too lazy to drag myself away from my Aeromexibanquette seat with the server assertively plying me with the Baja California Barbera.

I know this botana you speak of but this was was more of mixed greens with hot dogs situation.
