      Muchas gracias! Actualmente, todavía es requerida la prueba covid para todos los pasajeros que vuelan a USA. Incluso si ya están vacunados.

    Thanks for making this video. I was wondering what flying during covid with Volaris was like right now. Yeah, it kind of sucks they charge for carry-ons now, but I think they don't bother to check.

      Albert Kuan Glad you enjoyed it! Volaris is a low-cost airline so they charge you for everything but yeah, you can bring 1 or 2 small backpacks without cost

    Can you recline the seat? I heard volaris doesn’t do that

    • @tony.airlines
      @tony.airlines  4 года назад

      Yes! You can still recline the seats on most Volaris planes. At 6:07 and 6:17 in the video you can see the person in front of me had their seat reclined almost for the whole flight. Some of their newer A320neo planes are the ones that might not have reclinable seats any more.

    Hola, excelente video, me encanto.
    Tengo una pregunta, no sabes si puedo volar a Estados Unidos con visa de turista?
    No sabes si en ese vuelo viajaban mexicanos con visa de turista?
    Espero me puedas ayudar, muchas gracias

      Muchísimas gracias !
      Si es posible viajar ahorita con Visa Americana de Turista. Siempre y cuando esté vigente la Vida. Me regrese con una tía de Guadalajara y no hubo problema ninguno al llegar a Estados Unidos.
      Espero que esto haya sido de ayuda!

    why do mexican airlines use airbus

    • @tony.airlines
      @tony.airlines  4 года назад

      cesar cruz The Airbus A320 performs slightly better in Mexico, given how high some of the airports are in the country (for example Mexico City’s airport is around 7,000 ft. above sea level!)
      But also, Volaris, Interjet, and Viva probably all received a better deal from Airbus instead of Boeing, so they purchased A320s for cheaper.
      Not all Mexican airlines use Airbus planes though, Aeromexico is all-Boeing, Interjet operates some Sukhoi Superjets and Aeromar uses ATRs.
      Hope that helped!

      cesar cruz For the most part yes, and also Interjet bought a bunch of cheap Airbus A320’s from Mexicana after they went bankrupt in 2010

    I have a question I’m going to Cancun through volaris how many luggage’s or backpacks can you take without getting charged? Or what are you allowed to take in the plane

    • @tony.airlines
      @tony.airlines  4 года назад

      Vanessa Arroyo It depends on a couple of things.
      Which type of ticket did you buy? A “basic” ticket currently includes just 1 backpack and a “classic” ticket includes 1 carry-on and 1 checked bag
      It also depends on when you bought your ticket, if you purchased before February 2020, you were allowed 2 backpacks, but now it is only 1 backpack
      Otherwise, you will be charged for backpacks, carry-ons and checked bags. It’s a lot cheaper to pay for them online than being charged at the airport - it’s more expensive in the airport.

    Hi, excellent video.
    I have a question. Do you know, if I can fly from Mexico to United States with tourist visa?

    • @tony.airlines
      @tony.airlines  4 года назад

      Thank you very much!
      It’s possible to fly to the USA with a visa.
      A majority of the passengers on our flight were Mexican citizens with American tourist visas.
      Hope that helped and thank you for watching!

    What is the cost from Guadalajara airport to downtown

    • @tony.airlines
      @tony.airlines  3 года назад

      There is a bus service from Guadalajara to downtown, but the cheapest option in my opinion would be an Uber, which costs around 86 pesos, or $5 US Dollars
