Recent Traveller Feedback
Flew from Santo Domingo to Mexico City on Basic fare. Forgot to add carry-on during booking, had to pay 60 USD at the gate for my 10kg rolling bag. Outcome: paid gate fee. Way more expensive than adding it online for 25 USD. Definitely pre-book any carry-on or checked bags ahead of time.
60 USD
Booked Comfort fare with 23kg included. My bag was 27kg and they made me pay the 3kg upgrade fee of 30 USD at the airport. Outcome: paid overweight upgrade fee. The 3-by-3 bundle system is straightforward but pricey if you wait until check-in.
30 USD
