When this route gets cheap.
Fares bottom out in November around $247 and peak in December near $417, 69% dearer, across the 4 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 4.5 hours outbound, on a 4-night trip — ticketed under Volaris, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $314 for 2,491 km each way, that works out to about $63 per 1,000 km flown. That is above the $41 per 1,000 km typical of short-haul fares here. Across the 5 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Mexico City, this fare ranks 3rd — 48% above the $212 from Chicago. The best time to be in Mexico City: Mar–May · Oct–Nov.

Good to know
LA → MEX, answered.
Is $314 a good price for Los Angeles to Mexico City?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $335 round-trip and this fare is 6% under it. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from Los Angeles to Mexico City?
Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Nov comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Mexico City are Mar–May · Oct–Nov — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LA → Mexico City?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Nov comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Los Angeles to Mexico City?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Volaris. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
