Best time to be in Guangzhou: Oct–Dec. Fare history for this route is still thin, so we make no seasonal call yet.
The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes 2 stops and takes about 22 hours outbound, on a 19-night trip — ticketed under American, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $1,260 for 14,121 km each way, that works out to about $45 per 1,000 km flown. That is about the $40 typical of ultra-long-haul fares here. Across the 12 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Guangzhou, this fare ranks 12th — 2.4× the $530 we hold from San Francisco. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 31 routes of similar length we watch out of Mexico City, where the middle fare is $1,316. We have 1 month of cached prices for this route so far — not enough to call a fare cheap or expensive, so we publish the price without a percentage.

MEX → CAN, answered.
How far in advance should I book MEX → Guangzhou?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet.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. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for the levers we can measure.
Are there nonstop flights from Mexico City to Guangzhou?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under American. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on August 24). 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.
