Has Anyone Flown AeroMexico?

omg tara that is SO horrible! so sorry that happened to you! we regularly fly back and forth to mexico city to visit my FI's family, and FI goes there for business once & awhile, and he almost always flies united, or AeroMexico when he can't get a united flight. he totally despises Mexicana and now you know why the in-flight service is just piss poor and the people who work at customer service at the gate and when you check in to check luggage are not accomodating and in my experience, just plain rude.

I have searched and searched and can't find the answer. Anyone know off hand what Aeromexico's policy is on carrying on a pillow. Would it just be considered my personal item since I am not bringing my purse or anything?

I have a super bad back and really need my pillow.

I have Googled and looked on Aeromexico's website but no luck.

I am sure a pillow would be considered as one of your personal items.

I would assume so too...I just wanted to make sure. Makes sense that it would, right?

i think the weight limit is 2 bags at 50 lbs. i'm not sure but you might want to double check.

as far as the pillow, i have a pillow that has a strap on it. when i fly I clip it to my purse. i don't think a pillow will even count as one of your personal items. I always have a carry on, a minibackpack, & a pillow clipped to the backpack. I'm a total dork when i fly.

We just flew Aeromexico back from Cancun and had a good experience, in fact I think they are better than Mexicana! Better customer service. I think you'll be ok!

I'm a Flight Attendant for another airline and people often (well, not all the time, but I probably see an average of about 6 per month) bring their own pillow. Plus their carry on. I really can't see it being a problem, especially if you explain that you have a bad back and that you really need it! Have you thought about getting a note from your Doctor saying that you have to have it? Then if anyone hassles you at least you have something sort of official!

if you're not planning on using a purse, then why not stuff it in an overnight bag!? then you don't have to carry it and worry about it getting dirty.
