Air Travel
As of Jan 2007 everyone needs a current passport to enter Mexico You go through immigration upon arrival, showing your identification. You need to keep the bottom portion of your tourist card in your passport (filled out on the plane) as you are required to turn that back in upon departure (you will pay a fine and be delayed if you lose it).
After immigration, you will claim bags and go through customs. Mexico has a push button system. If you get a green light, you proceed through – the entire family will proceed through. If the light is red, they will quickly search your bags. If you are taking along a friend of your children, you will need special documentation. Check with your airline for current requirements.
