Check in time at MEX
 

I will leave MEX at 7:10am. What is the latest time that I can arrive at the airport?
Thanks.

MEX is a basket-case. I haven't flown out of there in years but IMO the LATEST I'd get there is 5:10.

At least 1 1/2 hours before. Most of the time check in is fast, however, when it is slow it is SLOW.

Stay in the Hilton in the terminal, walk down, get your BP and go back up for breakfast.

Thanks.

Allow enough time for the LONG walk. Also, the p-Club is nowhere near the gate.

You can check-in at any CO ticket office the day before your flight(there are four throughout the city, including one at the airport) and then just proceed directly to the gate (if you´re not checking any luggage) or check your luggage at the elite line on the day of your trip. It´s usually a looong walk to the gate.

Thanks JOSEMEX. I hope the ticket office will be open on Jan 1st as I will leave on Jan 2nd. That saves a lot of time.

They didn't allow me to pre-checkin since it's a nw code flight. I went to the airport well before 5:10am but the counter opened around 5am. It's a very long line. My gate was gate 21, very short walk from the entrance and very close to the president club. The lady in the club is quite friendly. Another flight to Newark departing from gate thirty something which was very very far from the president club. It's a nice flight to Houston. I saw the pyramids of the sun and moon after taking off. They served nice breakfast also.
