How to Say ‘Have a good trip.’ in Mexican Spanish
Buen viaje
bwen vee-AH-heh
[bwen vee-AH-heh]
💬 Usage Tip: [Bueno] becomes [buen] right before a masculine singular noun, so it's [buen viaje], not [bueno viaje]. Same pattern: [buen trabajo], [buen día].
🇲🇽 In Mexico: People do say [buen viaje], but at an airport in Mexico you may hear [buen vuelo] even more often, since it's specifically a flight.
