The airport is mostly new after months of renovation and expansion. As usual now, both domestic and intl
passengers undergo passport control and customs, either departing or arriving. Make sure, when departing, to
get your tourist permit and your passport stamped. Immigration personnel were friendly, but the lady at
Customs wasn't. I usually get immigration cleared at the land border point when coming from San Diego, but
the office at the border closes at night, TIJ Immigration is 24/7, so no worries for late night/early morning
flight. Check-in is a bit messy - though not slow - with Volaris, the largest tenant, but otherwise smooth with
other carriers. If you fly Aeromexico, well, let's say I've enjoyed better lounges than theirs at terminal A.
Better spend time at the terminal's Starbucks. Food is the airport biggest failure (small gates too, perhaps) I
believe, with nothing other than the aforementioned cafe and some overpriced, bad tasting and cramped
"restaurants". Terminal B isn't any better at food; its upside is a great local wine shop. Free wifi available
everywhere.

I arrived on a national flight from Guadalajara. The gates of the Tijuana Airport are quite modern with jetways at
each gate. There are restaurants and shops along the concourse. It was necessary to have my passport checked
by an immigration officer who saw it was a US passport and waved me through without looking at it. The
customs inspection was minimal. The baggage claim area is OK. When I checked in for my departing flight, I found
passengers were required to go through screening and customs inspection to enter the check-in area. It is
possible to exit and go outside while awaiting boarding time after you check in. The street entrance to the airport
is under construction and it is necessary to walk past the boarded-off areas to enter the terminal. There is a bus
station at the airport right by the terminal for shuttle buses to CA. Overall, this airport is not bad and will be very
good once construction is completed.

Having used Tijuana many times in the past, I was surprised while using it recently after a 5
year break. The renovations are still under way, but it is a clean, modern and efficient
airport that works well. The queues are generally quick and the staff know what they're doing.
With some great connections to mainland Mexico and a couple of new discount airlines using the
airport, it is a great alternative to SAN. Only annoying bit is the lack of any decent food and
beverage once you're through security. Over priced and average. The upside is you can check in
for most flights in Mexico up to 45 minutes before take off, so basically you can just walk
through security and to the gate.

Very Crowded check in, and long security lines. However, once past security it was a very
clean and nice airport. Not enough seats in the gate area however. Just know where you are
going and leave plenty of time before your flight.
