Mexico City from Columbus, Nov 14–21: $2,030 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Not worth it this week
- Highs of 75–77°F and lows near 49°F all week
- Suites Capri Reforma Ángel 380: 8.8 from 4,093 reviews, free cancellation
- Seven nights for Teotihuacán, Coyoacán and the Anthropology Museum
The catch: The outbound has two stops and lands at 1:15 AM the next day, and the $727 fare sits above the typical $588 per person.
Worth it if your dates are fixed and two stops don't bother you; skip it if you can wait for the fare to come down.
Not worth it this week: the whole trip is $2,030 for two, with the flights at $1,453 plus 7 nights at Suites Capri Reforma Ángel 380 for $496 and its $81 property fee, taxes and fees included. It runs Nov 14–21, 2026, on Air Canada with two stops, not a nonstop, and the $727 fare per person sits above the typical $588 on this route.

Why now
The fare is the reason to wait. We found $727 per person, all in, against a typical $588 from our earlier checks on this route, and the lowest we saw recently was $497 per person. That makes this the wrong week to lock it in unless your dates are fixed. The rest of the trip holds up: highs of 75–77°F with lows near 49°F, mostly overcast with one clear day and a drizzle day on Nov 19, and hotels on Reforma from $71 a night with free cancellation. Heads-up, the Día de Muertos parade on Reforma falls in late October or the first days of November, so these dates come after it. If the fare drops back toward $588, a week of museums, ruins and tacos here is easy to recommend for the two of you.
The kind of trip this is
A city week built around food and museums: tasting menus and late-night tacos, Aztec ruins, Frida Kahlo's house and a day out to Teotihuacán. It suits a couple or two friends who like to walk, eat well and stay out late now and then. The pace is as busy as you want, with mild afternoons for wandering Roma Norte and cool evenings for its mezcal bars.

Questions readers ask

$2,030 for two, all in: $1,453 for the flights plus $496 for 7 nights at Suites Capri Reforma Ángel 380 and its $81 property fee, taxes and fees included. Checked bags (about $140 for two) and spending money are extra. Prices are as we found them and can change.
Is there a shorter flight?
We also found a one-stop Delta option leaving at 6:40 AM and landing at 1:40 PM the same day, at $767 per person, or $1,534 for two. That's more than the $1,453 fare in our total.
