When scheduled flight times are different, it is for two reasons: 1) padded times added by the airline to improve their reported on-time performance, or 2) prevailing windws.

Number 2 is most common for east-west flights, but since the D.F. and Chicago are nearly north and south from each other, it's probably mostly that the time of the flights means the airline pads it differently. Prevailing winds may also play a role, however, since the jet stream does have a northwesterly flow across most fo the eastern half of North America.

How many hours is it from Mexico city to Hong Kong?

Do you mean the time difference between Mexico City and Hong Kong, or do you mean the time you need to go from Mexico City to Hong Kong? If you mean the time difference: Mexico City: UTC-6 (UTC-5) Hong Kong: UTC+8 So in winter time, the time difference is 14 hours; for summer, 13 hours. If you mean going from Mexico to Hong Kong: As far as I know, there is no direct flight between MEX and HKG. You need to fly to USA first and get a connecting flight. From CX's website, it takes around 4 hours from MEX to LAX, and 15.5 hours from LAX to HKG. (this is the flight time for wintertime; flight time for summertime would be shorter)
