Thankfully, you’ve found a convenient two flight connection from Aruba to Mexico City involving two airlines and best of all, you won’t have to connect through Miami. As an added bonus, none of the airlines are American and one of your flights will be aboard a widebody jet. Identify the two airlines involved, the connecting point and the two aircraft types involved.

And you would be correct, JL! Here's the full itinerary -
