How Long Does It Take To Get Back Across The Border?



Recommended Posts

2bsmallagain, we were also going to drive (from KC) & I anticipated fuel would be less than $300 (3,400 miles round trip @ $3.75/gal, 45 mpg). BUT last night, on a whim, I found flights for $200 each including insurance. My mom is going with me, so for $400, we shaved several days off our trip & paid about the same or less by the time you factor in hotels. I just knew it was too good to be true!

And I just checked again and the ticket prices r back up to $350-$400 each. Looks like I did okay, even if I have to pay for a night in a hotel.

Uh oh.... I didn't know that & booked my flight last night & am departing San Diego at 6:15am!!! Yikes, I wasn't thinking about customs, etc. I hope this won't be a huge problem. Aren't the borders open 24/7?

who is your coordinator with Dr. Garcia? Ask her if they can make some arrangements so that you can catch that flight. Also check with whoever you booked the flight with to see if you can make changes since it hasnt been long since you booked the flight... its worth a try!

My flight was at 1040 am on a Wednesday. We left the Marriott at 645 am. It took us about an hour to get from the hotel to the airport. I wish we had spent the night at a San Diego hotel the night before rather then stay in Mexico. If I had it to do over I would try and get the hotel switched with the company I booked my surgery with before I left.

I would def cross the boarder the day before. I was told not to book my flight before 2-3pm. I was glad as I was leaving at 6pm because we only had to wait in the airport in San Diego for about 90mins. There was quite a line to get through airport security.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
