Dec 9, 2015 at 16:40 comment added phoog @NateEldredge of course. But the airline checking your passport is not the same as the formal passport control that many countries carry out on departing travelers, and the question seems to be asking about that.
Dec 9, 2015 at 15:52 comment added Nate Eldredge @phoog: If flying to Mexico from the US, presumably the airline would check your passport upon departure, to ensure that you are authorized to enter Mexico (so they don't have to pay a fine and bring you back). But if you were flying within the US, you wouldn't need a passport at all.

Dec 9, 2015 at 0:23 comment added Tor-Einar Jarnbjo Isn't the CBX just a regular border crossing dedicated for passenger flying to and from Tijuana airport? There's nothing on their web site indicating or suggesting anything else: 'CBX is an international border crossing and all standard international requirements apply.'
Dec 9, 2015 at 0:22 comment added Gagravarr It looks to me like someone flying SFO to SAN would actually leave the USA, enter Mexico, clear Mexican customs and immigration, then walk along the skywalk bridge to the USA, where they'd then go through US customs and immigration

Dec 8, 2015 at 22:46 comment added phoog Does one normally go through passport or customs controls when leaving San Francisco for Mexico? If so, that would be unusual, as the US does not examine departing passengers. Also, once you land in TIJ, you're in Mexico. You can go back to the US, but there's no "remaining" there. How do you imagine it would work that way?
