Nonstop on Aeromexico, the outbound leg typically takes 5 hours 20 minutes, while the return to Mexico City takes about 6 hours 40 minutes — noticeably longer because of prevailing headwinds.", "methodology": "Carrier service, flight times and distances for this route come from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We report the days of the week and the departure times each carrier operates. The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time, given both per carrier and across all carriers on the route; where a schedule does not publish an elapsed time, it is derived from the scheduled departure and arrival times converted to UTC. Outbound and return times are computed by the same method, so the difference between them is directly comparable and reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in derivation. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two specific airports named, so an actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer. Where shown, on-time departure and arrival rates and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; where a typical fare is shown, it comes from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold.", "toolsUsed": ["flight_schedule"]}, "q3": {"question": "What are the ground transportation options in Boston?", "answer": "From Boston Logan, the Silver Line bus (free from the airport) connects to South Station and the Red Line subway, while the Blue Line subway is a short free shuttle ride away. Taxis, Uber, and Lyft are readily available and take about 15-25 minutes to downtown. The Logan Express bus serves suburban park-and-ride lots, and water ferries offer a scenic route to downtown. The Silver Line and Blue Line are the most-used public transit options, with the Silver Line being the fastest and most direct for many city-center destinations.", "toolsUsed": [], "references": [{"url": "https://massport.com/logan-airport", "title": "Boston Logan International Airport | Massport", "favicon": "https://massport.com/themes/custom/massport/favicon.ico", "time_published": "2026-05-18T12:00:00Z"}, {"url": "http://www.massport.com/logan-airport/to-from-logan/", "title": "How to Get to Logan Airport | Massport", "time_published": "2026-04-07T00:00:00Z"}, {"url": "https://faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/atpubs/ntap_aug_18/NE10001.html", "title": "Massachusetts.

It is built from real flight prices found by Priceline users searching this route, accumulated into a price history for each departure date. Rather than weighting all of that history equally, we apply exponential time decay so recent prices dominate — a price seen yesterday counts almost in full, one from about a month ago roughly a third, and prices from a few months back very little — giving a figure that tracks today's market instead of a stale long-run average. Clear price outliers are removed before any calculation, departure dates with no observations are filled in from nearby dates, and the resulting curve is lightly smoothed so it reads as a clean seasonal trend rather than day-to-day noise. For this route, fares for the requested travel direction were unavailable, so the pattern shown is derived from the reverse direction, which shares the same seasonal demand cycle.", "toolsUsed": ["seasonal_prices"]}, "q5": {"question": "How far in advance should I book tickets from Mexico City to Boston?", "answer": "For flights from Mexico City to Boston, booking 8–11 weeks ahead typically yields the best fares, averaging around $631. During peak summer or holiday periods, booking even earlier — roughly 3–4 months in advance — can help avoid price spikes that push last-minute fares close to $1,000.", "methodology": "This booking-window guidance is built from the same real flight prices found by Priceline users searching this route, re-grouped by how many days before departure each price was seen (from the departure day out to about 180 days ahead) across the route's price history. At each booking lead time we report the 25th-percentile price — the cheaper end of what travelers were quoted, rather than the rock-bottom minimum (which can be a fluke) or the average (which is pulled up by expensive last-minute fares). The buy-or-wait advice then applies a risk premium that grows as departure approaches, since seat availability shrinks and prices become less predictable; using that adjusted curve we flag windows where waiting is likely to save a meaningful amount (at least $20 or 5%) versus windows where booking now is the better call. Isolated single-day recommendations are filtered out, so the advice only reflects a window that holds for several days in a row.
