Roughly 1,270 miles separate Miami International Airport (MIA) and Mexico City International Airport (MEX), so a nonstop spends about 3h05 in the air, a little more or less depending on winds and direction. American Airlines and Aeromexico both carry nonstop award space in the data. The Boeing 737-8 MAX appears on some of those nonstop award segments. Most award options in the data connect. Nonstops are just about 9% of the total.
On a run like Miami–Mexico City, cash fares are real competition for points. The economy floor is a partner booking on an American Airlines nonstop, with no connection to trade off against the points. Expect about $82 in taxes and fees on top, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. Run the miles-or-cash math each time: a cheap fare usually beats spending points. The exception is nonstop business class: at about double economy, it's the cabin where an award is most worth checking against the cash fare.
Alaska Atmos Rewards wins economy at 7,500 points and business class at 15,000, both on American Airlines nonstops. United MileagePlus' 35,000-point first-class fare connects; treat it as mixed-cabin until each segment's cabin checks out. The other six programs include Air Canada Aeroplan, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and Avianca LifeMiles. Alaska Atmos Rewards' lead holds until a transfer bonus elsewhere shifts the math; recheck before moving points.
Nonstop award space on Miami–Mexico City spans two alliances: American Airlines (oneworld) and Aeromexico (SkyTeam). That means partner programs in both alliances have a way onto a nonstop. The business-class floor is a oneworld partner award: Alaska Atmos Rewards prices the American Airlines nonstop.
For Miami departures, Fort Lauderdale (FLL) costs far more at 20,000 points in economy against the 7,500-point floor and isn't worth it unless Miami International has nothing. For another option from Miami, Bogota prices from 9,870 points at last check. Confirm which Miami airport the award uses before transferring points.
