We have used the crossing many times, but the floors of the bridge are getting dirtier all the time. Another aspect that I completely overlooked was that when returning from Mexico, at the CBX entry gates you need not only need the return CBX code, but also the boarding pass. I assumed the boarding pass was only relevant for the flight in Mexico. CBX needs to be clear in communicating that the boarding pass to use CBX is needed BOTH ways.

We used CBX for two way travel last weekend and found the experience pretty good. The outbound US=>MEX experience was excellent. The staff was helpful and baggage carts were accessible and plentiful. Once through the gates, we were 10 minutes to the border crossing and 5 minutes to check our bags at the Volaris counter. On the return MEX=>US crossing, we found there were no baggage carts at the baggage claim and until we were halfway across so dragging bags through the electronic gates was awkward and inconvenient. Once through and after the carts were available, things were easier. All in all, CBX is very efficient and convenient. We'd gladly use CBX again when we next need to fly out of Tijuana airport.

Quick passage, no major issues and won't hesitate to use again. 2 minor problems we ran into: 1. Passport card won't scan our details and we had to fill the form by hand. 2. Some parts of the crossing looks like it has been patched with bare drywalls. It has been like that for years.

CBX is convenient for people living in Southern California. The prices, however, continue to climb and the parking there is outrageous. By the time I pay $60 Uber each way vs. 20 to the San Diego airport and the $92 CBX fee for my son and me, (especially since flight prices have increased from TIJ), prices are no longer reasonable and it has become a less attractive option for me and my family. Flights are constantly delayed (23 hours once, 14 and 8 hours on other trips) in TIJ as well.

Used CBX to cross from Tijuana into San Diego. All in all it took about 90 minutes from when we landed to finally getting into San Diego. The lines were long. The customs line was pretty confusing to navigate on the US with nobody telling us where to go (which resulted in us lining up in the wrong line) and then getting in trouble by the customs person. Once we were on the San Diego side there was no clear area for rideshare and it just felt like mayhem to be honest. On the plus side, I had a lot of questions prior to using CBX because I’m from Australia and wasn’t sure about the protocols. Their customer service people were INCREDIBLY helpful in the lead up to using CBX.

Passing over a bridge is awesome! You don't have to go into Tijuana! Parking at CBX is dicey. Depending on the season you may struggle to find a spot. Ground transportation may be a solution. I only tried Mexicoach and they cancelled my ride with no advanced knowledge!

Premium parking was expensive but easy to use. I dropped of passenger first, then went to park. I printed out all parking and XBorder crossing passes just incase. NOTE: you do not need to pay for a FMM visa unless you are staying 7 days or more!!!! Complete it online in advance and it will save you a lot of time! There is no baggage check-in on the US side, you have to cross over with your bags and check in with the airlines on the other side. Baggage carts are free and available on the US side. Returning you will not find the carts till you get past the entrance gate on the Mexican side. The entrance to XBorder is right in baggage claim in TJ. We returned at 11 PM so there were no lines at the CBP entry booths especially if you have SENTRI or Global Entry. Very easy to use and I hope the costs come down. One in the party crossed at Otay pedestrian with a small carry on, got a taxi to the airport, and beat us to the gate. You need a valid Passport!!! Or you will be turned away and have to cross at Otay!

I used this border crossing for a flight in Tijuana for the 1st time. My husband had used it before. It would have been perfect had they allowed the place where we parked our car to be able to drive us to the gate, but we had to walk a distance with luggage in tow. 🤬🤬🤬 The parking place stated they wanted to charge them a fee to use their street to drop us off. Not sure why, other than corporate greed, when there is free parking on the street.

The crossing between the USA 🇺🇸 was great. It's the return back to the USA that I had a problem and ended up in Tijuana as the exit signs didn't communicate well to follow CBX . I ended up getting a taxi to the USA border and waiting in line. Then getting another taxi to come to CBX. Then my CBX time to exit the parking had been existed by 30 minutes and had to pay $33.00 more. It was a freaking mess. So the point is put a big sign so everyone can see and follow.

The description stated that the Tijuana airport would connect with the San Diego airport by the CBX. However we came out about 20 miles from the main San Diego airport, and had to buy transportation back to it. That should have been made clear.
