By leveraging Brightwell's digital refund solution, Latitude, Aeromexico is streamlining payouts, reducing operational costs, and enhancing passenger satisfaction.

Aeromexico is committed to delivering a seamless travel experience, from booking to arrival. Now, with Latitude by Brightwell, the airline is modernizing its refund and reimbursement process—ensuring passengers receive funds quickly and conveniently while reducing strain on internal teams.

With Latitude, Aeromexico passengers will receive a convenient Aeromexico-branded link that allows them to access their refund or reimbursement in faster than traditional methods via the payment method of their choice.

"Brightwell makes that easier with refunds that are convenient for agents and passengers, regardless of country or currency. The fully-branded user experience helps our passengers trust that they are making the right choice to fly with us and that any disruptions will be resolved quickly."
