===============Hat's Off to Mexicana Airlines===============
For this trip to and from Cabo San Lucas my family flew
Mexicana Airlines, and the experience was so pleasant I wanted to share it with my Luxe List readers. Offering a wide range of flight options to Los Cabos among other destinations, Mexicana Airlines is considered to be the leading transportation company between Mexico and the United States. And with good reason, as on my recent trip it was particularly noteworthy how efficiently the airline was run and how pleasant, personable and professional the staff are -- from the ticket agents at the check-in desk to the pilot and flight attendants. Our arrival and departing flights left on time, and both of the aircrafts that we flew on were very clean and well maintained. The seats were also decidedly comfortable for our two-plus hour flights, during which beverages and a boxed lunch was served on the way up, hot penne pasta or chicken and rice options on the return.
With a modern fleet of Airbus planes, Mexicana is said to have the best maintenance base in Latin America. The airline has been recognized multiple times by the World Travel Awards as having the Best Business Class in Mexico and Latin America, in addition to being awarded as the leading airline for ten consecutive years. Mexicana has also been recognized as having the best airline Web site in the region. Through its Elite, Business, and Tourist classes, Mexicana prides itself on the high standard of its passenger services, exceptional in-flight fare, and high levels of customer satisfaction -- all of which was apparent on my recent trip to Los Cabos.
The Elite class in particular offers innovative gourmet meals while Mexicana's sommelier, Sandra Fernández from Tierra de Vinos, has developed an exclusive wine list for the benefit of the airline's more discerning passengers. The Elite class also provides exceptional entertainment selections, a bar, and luxurious seating. The airline offers a number of all-inclusive packages with resort partners like Casa Dorada to make vacation planning even more convenient. Mexicana also has numerous code share agreements with leading international airlines, giving passengers the benefit of accumulating and redeeming air miles, a wider range of connection possibilities and flight schedules, and access to numerous executive lounges.
