Use SkyMiles to upgrade AeroMexico flight

Use SkyMiles to upgrade AeroMexico flight

Taking a trip to Cancun in February (from SFO) and have been looking at flights. A few good premium cabin options out there, but slightly more expensive than what I’ve been hoping for. Although recently I have seen some sub-$400 economy fares on AeroMexico. So now I’m wondering if there is a way to upgrade economy to business on AeroMexico using Delta SkyMiles (and if it’s worth it!)

Any thoughts/tips/ideas?

In general it’s not a good deal to upgrade with miles as it mostly require a fully flexible Y ticket which can cost as much as a cheap J.

I might be a good option for Delta own flights in future since they are changing the classes you can upgrade starting Jun 1 2016. Depends on how many miles they charge for the upgrade of course.

That said using Delta SkyMiles in this case is not possible, miles upgrade is only possible on Delta and AF/KLM
