Im traveling soon on my own for the first time and considered using CBX since my flight is at 12am and Tijuana can be a bit dangerous...your video provided so much help!:))
I usually have flights early in the morning and experience the same short to no lines. Then I flew at 9pm recently and the bridge was overflowing with people. The white tent that you showed in the beginning was full. Luckily I didn't have to check any bags and was able to skip the massive line.
Thank you thank you thank you! Finally someone who actually took the time to explain each step. I've never used CBX before, and plan to use it this summer for the first time Primeramente Dios. I get anxious when I don't know everything I need to do beforehand, so this video was so helpful and I am feeling better about using CBX. I subscribed to your channel and am watching your other CBX crossing videos. Question: I noticed you checked-in volaris in the CBX building even after having checked-in online and having a carry-on. Do you recommend doing that?
Thank you & I’m glad it helped! 🥰 As for your question, This is something that I always do regardless if I already checked in on my phone. I’ve always wondered the same thing though, I remember asking this to the desk lady if it mattered to check in personally with them or if we could just bypass the desk since we already had checked in- but I don’t remember what she said 😕 However, I think you should go to the desk bc you may get an update on your boarding pass, that you probably didn’t have beforehand.
Awesome video. Going to Puerto Vallarta in July. Using CBX. Do we check in our luggage when coming through CBX so that we don't have to wait in line in the airport?
I remember when my mom was going to Mexico to see her family at cbx the first time and after when she was going home and we were at airport and I was saying what’s taking her so long the plane landed until she did came but when me my sister and dad went to Mexico with her this time and after Mexico we landed at the Tijuana and cross the cbx it was long and we didn’t complain anymore cause it would have explain why my mom was a taking long cause the cbx was 10 minute walk and they is a line they check your passport and your luggage so that explains
Hey, I would imagine that you could ! I recently had a cousins friend travel through TJ (& not use CBX bc of not having a passport) & she was able to fly with those two identifications.
@@pabloalatorre8200 yea bro easy I told them that I was from Mexico coming back that’s it and they ask you what state from Mexico now if you start stuttering and nervous they going to get the multa off you lol
No, no piden prueba. los de migración sólo se encargan de los papeles importantes. Los que te piden algo sobre lo de tu salud son los que están para cruzar el puente y los que están cuando vas a pasar a las salas de abordaje. No es una prueba del covid que tienes que mostrar sino Solo un papelito de “Salud” que ellos te dan ahí en CBX o igual también se encuentra del lado de tijuana.
So i recently flew from tijuana to morelia (crossed border) and at the airport they didnt ask me for a fmm form but when I go back in a couple days i will be using cbx, my question is will i get in trouble for not paying the fee or asking for a fmm form? Going on 20 days here in morelia
Hello! If you are on Volaris website and you put “SD - Tijuana CBX” then you will get an “add on” option to include your CBX ticket to your reservation, therefore, when you’re done purchasing your ticket all together, you will notice that on your itinerary it will list your “cross border express” ticket on it. If you’re on Volaris buying your ticket and put “SD- Tijuana” without it saying “cbx”, then you’ll have to buy the CBX ticket separately from the CBX website.
Hi! Idk if this is considered a tip but I will note that there are several exchange windows where you can exchange . 1) First one is inside the CBX terminal, infront of the Volaris kiosks. (This one I have noticed is typically closed which is probably because I’ve traveled between 3am-5am so it’s probably too early for it to be opened) 2) The next exchange spots are at the TJ airport, infront of all their check-in kiosks. There are a few windows there. 3) The last one is at the boarding gates, down the hall way going towards the “1-7 gates”. This is where I typically exchange them, only once was it closed when I tried to exchange. Best rates are not found at airports but If I didn’t exchange pesos beforehand then something that I do is exchange some of my money at the airport so I can have pesos on hand for whatever I may need the moment I touch down at my destination. The rest I save so that I can exchange at my destination somewhere more in city, counting on that the exchange rate would be higher in town than at the airport. On this particular trip, my family friends told me that where we were going to in Nayarit, there wasn’t any quick or nearby places that they knew of for us to stop by an exchange, so I exchanged it all at the TJ airport on the boarding gates side. When I travel to Michoacán, I know where to exchange over there and just give my ride a heads up to stop by an exchange window before making it to our little town.
thank you sooooo much for this!!!
Thank you so much for documenting this. Im traveling alone and this is so helpful. It seriously helped my anxiety.

Do you what the procedure would be if I am a Mexican national? I won't have to go through that FMM process..
I'm filling out the FMM Form. Is the point of entry "Conexion peatonal aeroportuairo Tijuana - San Diego"? Thanks!
Is the covid test required when you came back to the US though CBX? Thank you.
Hello, no. Covid test isn’t required to come back through CBx
Hey I’m going to Mexico in 3 days do you know once I’m in tj can I travel in Mexico with my states id and birth certificate? Thanks
Hey, I would imagine that you could ! I recently had a cousins friend travel through TJ (& not use CBX bc of not having a passport) & she was able to fly with those two identifications.
We’re you able to?
I heard they let you but charged a multa but I’m not sure
@@pabloalatorre8200 I got in easy no multa if you know how to finesse you from there
@@pabloalatorre8200 yea bro easy I told them that I was from Mexico coming back that’s it and they ask you what state from Mexico now if you start stuttering and nervous they going to get the multa off you lol
Just Because of this video I am now subscribed 😄
Muy buen vídeo !!!
Una pregunta ellos te pidieron la prueba del COVID en migración mexicana ?
No, no piden prueba. los de migración sólo se encargan de los papeles importantes. Los que te piden algo sobre lo de tu salud son los que están para cruzar el puente y los que están cuando vas a pasar a las salas de abordaje. No es una prueba del covid que tienes que mostrar sino Solo un papelito de “Salud” que ellos te dan ahí en CBX o igual también se encuentra del lado de tijuana.
@@itwaszaira5986 and going out to Mexico is only Mexico's inmigration?
So i recently flew from tijuana to morelia (crossed border) and at the airport they didnt ask me for a fmm form but when I go back in a couple days i will be using cbx, my question is will i get in trouble for not paying the fee or asking for a fmm form? Going on 20 days here in morelia
Hey! Coming back, the US immigration officers don’t ask for the piece of paper either.
Do I need a covid test to come back to the USA from Los Cabos vía VOLARIS through the CBX terminal in Tijuana.
Enjoy each moment and stay safe always. :)
Thank you!
Do you need to pay for the fmm at cbx or they just give it to you for free?
You have to pay extra :)
Depends on how long you are staying. If you are staying less than a week, it is free but if you are staying longer then you have to pay the fee.
Hi, so if you’re traveling more than 7 days you pay. They will charge you when you get the Mexican Immigration.
Hope you have a great trip:)
Thank you! I did 😊
@@itwaszaira5986 thats great to hear:) I luv ur videos
Does a volaris ticket come with a CBX ticket or do I have to buy it separately?
