Do I need a visa to fly from Amsterdam to Mexico City?

It depends on your nationality, not on the route — two travellers on the same Amsterdam → Mexico City flight can face completely different entry rules. Check the destination country’s official immigration site or your foreign-ministry travel advice for your passport, and do it before booking: some destinations require a visa obtained in advance, others issue visas or waivers on arrival.

How many bags can I take on flights from Amsterdam to Mexico City?

Whatever the fare you buy includes — baggage is set by the carrier and fare class, not the route, and the carriers on this pair (KLM Royal Dutch Airlines) price bags very differently. Low-cost fares usually include cabin bags only and charge per checked bag; full-service fares typically include at least one. Compare totals with your bags added, because a dearer fare with bags included is often cheaper overall.

How do I survive the long-haul flight from Amsterdam to Mexico City?

Roughly 11.6 hours in the air is a genuine endurance event, and three choices decide most of it: pick your seat when booking (aisle for freedom, window for sleep), decide your sleep strategy before boarding rather than halfway through, and book your Mexico City transfer in advance so the arrival half of the journey is already solved when you land, tired.
