100% yes. Per the owner's manual says the CD player can read MP3, WMA, AAC and M4A.

EDIT: Safe journey and enjoy the trip! Looking forward to hearing about it and seeing some pics!

MP# F30 Basic headunit

MP3 is not suported via the CD DRIVE

Copied text from bmw ISTA:

Functional enhancements of the headunit basic version
Combining several devices that were previously external in one housing has resulted in the following benefits:

- Additional functionality

- Software is easy to extend using suitable interfaces

- Fewer plug-in connections, therefore fewer fault sources

- Optimised installation room and lighter weight


Note!

The CD drive is suitable for playing CDs (digital audio). DVD and Blu-ray are not supported. MP3-Files are also not supported.


Some of the essential functional enhancements are listed below:

Apps

- Wireless application

- Multiple sessions for apps

- Switching between Apple CarPlay and vehicle by pressing the button {MENU} on the controller for a prolonged period.

- Apple Siri always available by pressing the hands-free button for a prolonged period


Speech processing

- Natural language detection for German, English US, English UK, Chinese, Italian, French, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese

- Simplified search for music tracks

- Simplified dictation of messages

- Advanced telephone functions


Navigation

- Learning by the sensor system in the vehicle to improve the digital map data.

- Operating navigation through touch screen and gesture

- Free text search for the destination input

- "Over the air" update of changes in map data


Car sharing

- Head unit supports flexible car sharing

- Flexible support of Apps

- Special handling of Bluetooth devices

- Special handling of personal data
