About · Editorial collective

A flight publication for Mexico writing under one editorial byline.

FlightsMX is an editorial collective focused on four corridors: paisano-VFR to the United States, Caribbean and Cuba for Mexican travellers, the Camino de Santiago and European diaspora, and the Pacific Alliance (BOG / SCL / LIM). We publish original reporting and weekly fare brackets under a single team byline — not generic agency copy or press releases.

Why we publish under one byline

Every FlightsMX article carries a single byline: FlightsMX Editorial Team. Three reasons.

  • Source protection. Several contributors hold sensitive industry contacts — current airline employees, former SECTUR staff who coordinated paisano-tourism programs, diocesan contacts for the Camino. A single byline protects those sources.
  • Editorial consistency. One byline reinforces one voice across four registers — paisano-warm, Camino-formal, Caribbean-leisure, LATAM business-neutral — and one set of standards.
  • Honest process. Every article passes through author, fact-checker, and a standards editor before publishing. Crediting three editors' work to a single name would misrepresent how the work was actually done.

Editorial standards

  • Two-source rule on YMYL topics — visa rules, paisano baggage, CBP procedure, Camino costs. At least one source must be a regulator (AFAC, SICT, INM, SECTUR), US Customs and Border Protection, or an airline IR filing.
  • MXN as base currency, with USD shown in parentheses where useful. No ambiguous "$" — always explicit "MXN" or "USD".
  • Weekly fare snapshots pulled from the Travelpayouts API — never boilerplate copy. See our methodology page for full data-collection details.
  • Mexican Spanish: "ustedes" as plural-you; "vosotros" is forbidden. Spanish/English code-switching is fine where it reflects how paisanos actually speak.
  • Affiliate disclosure on every relevant page — see disclosure.
  • No sombrero / mariachi / narco-clichés. We never use "wetback," "illegal," or "undocumented" to refer to people. Migration language is neutral and respectful.

How we work

  • Author + fact-checker on different desks. Every article passes through at least two editors before publication; YMYL pieces (visas, CBP rules, compensation claims) go through an additional standards check.
  • Dated corrections. Material errors get a public correction note at the top of the article with the date of the change.
  • "Last verified" stamp. The date shown on each article reflects when the data sources behind that page were last cross-checked. We do not bump it without an actual re-verification pass.
  • No paid placement. Hotel and route reviews carry explicit disclosure when affiliate links are present; airline rankings are not pay-to-play.

What FlightsMX is NOT

We are not a travel agency. You book directly through Aviasales, Hotellook, Skyscanner, Trip.com, or Booking.com links; FlightsMX earns a small commission at no additional cost to you, which funds our operation without pop-up ads or pay-to-play airline rankings.
