Volaris is a Mexico-based ultra-low-cost carrier and one of the largest airlines in Mexico, operating from its base in Guadalajara to destinations throughout Mexico, the United States, Central America, and the Caribbean. Known for its very low base fares on U.S.–Mexico routes, Volaris targets the large U.S. Mexican-American travel market with competitive transborder pricing. Like other ULCCs, bags and seat selection cost extra — FaresMatch advisors can help you compare Volaris against Aeromexico and U.S. carriers to find the best total price.

Tips for booking Volaris flights
Volaris charges extra for carry-on bags, checked bags, and seat selection. A $89 base fare can become $140+ once you add a carry-on. Always compare the full cost against Aeromexico and U.S. carriers before booking.
Volaris Club is a paid membership that gives access to lower bag fees and sale fares year-round. If you fly Volaris multiple times per year, the annual fee typically pays for itself on the first or second booking.
Volaris' cheapest fares on U.S.–Mexico routes are available earliest. Booking 6 to 10 weeks out on popular corridors like LAX–GDL secures the lowest base fares before they step up closer to departure.
Volaris targets the U.S.–Mexico VFR (visiting friends and relatives) market with a wide range of secondary city routes. If your home city is Guadalajara, Morelia, or Oaxaca, Volaris may have the most convenient nonstop from your U.S. gateway.
