TIMATIC entry requirements seem to be incorrect for UK->MEX

Hey all, I'm a Turkish citizen planning a flight from UK to Mexico. Mexican Embassy in Turkey and the Mexican National Institute of Immigration (INM) say anyone with a valid UK visa can travel to Mexico regardless of nationality, but TImatic claims I need either a US visa or UK permanent residence permit. Anyone has any idea what to do in this situation? I confirmed that UK visas should be accepted for Mexico by emailing the Mexican Embassy. How do I even go about proving to the airline that I should be allowed to board the plane?

Are you flying UK-MEX non stop or UK-USA-MEX?
What airline/airlines?
