- A hard or digital copy of the Boarding Pass, downloaded to any electronic means such as tablets, cell phones or mobile devices.
- Official Identification of each Passenger, including Minors and Infants.
- Proof of payment in those cases that the Reservation has been paid in OXXO or through BANAMEX.
Those Passengers that fail to comply with the provisions in subsection i) above, must go directly to the
check-in counters to have their Boarding Pass printed without exception and make the payment of the corresponding charges pursuant to the Fees published at http://www.vivaaerobus.com/mx/volar-...uestros-cargos. Passengers must be at the last departure lounge by the time established in item 4.0 above.
Viva Aerobus may deny boarding to those Passengers who fail to comply with the requirements set forth herein without any liability whatsoever."
Section 8:
"...
Passengers on the Zero and Light Fares may print their Boarding Passes online on our Website or on the Viva App, from between ten (10) days and 70 (seventy) minutes before the scheduled departure of a flight, as long as they have paid for a seat change at an extra cost, before the departure of the flight.
...
8.2 Exceptions for obtaining the Boarding Pass online
...
J) Passengers which have not chosen a Seat or had one allocated by the airline, or when they are requested on the Website to go directly to the check-in counters."
The fee for airport
counter check-in is included, but not the fee for
printing the boarding pass.
Sadly, the English T&Cs are not well written. But have a look at this
, and feel fee to call them.
VivaAerobus are bad, but not criminal, in that they won't illegally extort you.
