Mexicana Airlines flies to many destinations in North,Central and South America, and the Caribbean; and it is the leading airline for flights between Mexico and the USA. But here’s a little known aspect of the carrier:It offers mileage redemption with a variety of airline sand crosses normal alliance lines. In other words, you can access flights of several One world alliance carriers (American, LAN, Iberia) and a few Star Alliance carriers as well (Air Canada, Air New Zealand, Singapore, Lufthansa, LOT Polish). That means buying miles in Mexicana’s Frecuenta mileage program is actually a gateway to almost anywhere in the world because Mexicana does not impose an annual mileage purchase limit. Miles are also a bargain, 1.6¢ versus the usual rate of 2.5¢ most airlines charge.
