Aviacsa

Pros: Newer planes, spacier, clean, neat. Alert and educated staff, a breeze through everything.

Clean Planes, On Time Departures, and Great Fares to Destinations in Mexico... I stumbled across Aviacsa, when I was looking for a flight to Monterrey, MX. After getting sticker shock from Continental and American, I decided to look deeper into ...

I've talked about Aviacsa in some of my articles about getting around in Mexico, but it was always in the context of flying Aviacsa simply to save money. While Aviacsa continues to offer some of the best fares in the Mexican aviation industry, I've...

Pros: In Mexico Aviacsa provides coach service comparable to US First Class service.
Cons: Electronic tickets in Mexico are not reliable as they are in USA. Go paper.

I was looking for good deals on travel to Oaxaca and Morelia, Mexico in October 2003. I found Aviacsa on Lowest Fares website. I had never heard of Aviacsa and was hesitant to fly with an unknown carrier. After reading the single review in Epinions, I ...

Pros: NONE ANYMORE
Cons: HORRIBLE PROBLEM RESOLUTION

I flew Aviacsa in January, they would not allow me to board the plane because my 3 week old baby only had a birth certificate. This was the first day the passport law came in to effect. I called US Customs and they said that they informed all airlines ...

Pros: On time, Cheap Airfare, Clean Planes, Good Staff, Electronic Ticket Available
Cons: None

This was my first experience with Aviacsa. i flew from Miami to Guadalajara with a Layover in Monterrey. Flight was on-time and crew was very pleasant. i was surprised that in each of the flights they provided us with a full meal. with any beverage including alcohol at no additional charge. planes were clean and tidy. will definitely fly this Airline again... also much cheaper than rest of airlines. Keep up the good work Aviacsa!!!!!!

Pros: cheap, direct flights available
Cons: only one departure between cities -- very early in a.m.

I used this airline for a one-way flight from Acapulco to Oaxaca last September. Its price was way lower than the competitors (below half, as I recall), and, as the competition all ran through Mexico City, the total time for the flight was by far lowest. But I did need to fly early in the morning (7am?). The flight arrived late in Acapulco, unfortunately, and so departed late--but I'm not going to worry about 30 minutes. Significantly, the few airport employees at the airport at that early hour seemed bewildered that Aviacsa had not arrived in Acapulco on time. Evidently, this is not a common thing for this airline.

BTW, I'm sorry that I can't give precise dollar costs, departure times, and so forth. I had forgotten to report my experience when it happened, and details have become a bit fuzzy.
