Verified. Passport cards can be use for ready lanes. It used to shave about half off of the general lanes.When I drive, I find that Ready Lanes are sometimes a few minutes faster, but nowhere near "about half". That's because they don't enforce the Ready Lane requirement for an RFI passport.
If you're talking about walking, I have no idea.

As a frequent visitor to FKKs. Saying that "the foreigner is not treated any different than a local guy" is simply incorrect. Foreigners are often denied entry to certain FKKs, depending on their looks and appearance. This is especially true if you are black or dark skinned Asian. A friend of mine who is an African American living in Germany cannot enter many FKKs, and he has lived in Germany for 10+ years and speaks fluent German. FKKs are free to turn you away simply if they don't like the way you look.That's interesting because I was able to go into Oase, Miami and Palace without any issue at all.
I don't speak a word of German either, this all happened in 2007 I doubt very seriously things have changed much.
Not that Black men have a "need" for paid sex services anyway, just saying.

LOL. That was easy. I parked in a Blue Line lot in SD and took the train to San Ysifro. Had my pre-filled FMM from the web, my reservation, my fake work emails, everything. I walk straight forward through a few corridors and a federale stops me inside the checkpoint and says, "Mexicano?" I say no, American, and he asks for my passport. Looks at it for four seconds, says "Next time, American line," and sends me out a door. Suddenly there I am on the streets of Tijuana. Oops.
Update on this, I'm coming down to Tijuana this Thursday. Staying the night in downtown, leaving Friday. Hoping to have some fun and see what there is to offer in the Zona Norte on Thursday evening.

I normally drive to avoid the hassle but I was under the assumption that border crossing for non essential purposes was OK starting today. Wanted to have a couple beers and bang out a SG. Told the agent I was going to the casino and they sent me to secondary with about 20 other dudes in the room. Finally got me for the $30 FMM. I've crossed on foot about 15 times since Covid. Sucks because I only brought $100 with me so I ran out of money quickly with only $70 in La Zona.

You might want to get a part time job. Who goes to Mexico with $100.I thought you put me on ignore you weirdo. Guess that was another of your many lies. I went for two hours to get a couple beers and bang a SG. $100 was plenty.
I'm thinking of crossing the border and taking a flight from Tijuana to Guadalajarra. I have a USA Passport, a USA Passport Card, SENTRI, and Global Entry. My question is can I travel within Mexico, meaning board a flight in Tijuana using my USA Passport Card and return with it as I don't want to take my Passport with me, but would bring my SENTRI card with me to cross back from Tijuana into the USA.
The next question is regarding the FMM, I used to get the six month one but haven't been in a while. Any advice on this?
Thanks in Advance.

My question is can I travel within Mexico, meaning board a flight in Tijuana using my USA Passport Card No. Passport card is only good for land border crossing at Canada and Mexico and cruise ships. When you board a plane they will want to see your passport book if you are in another country.

Thanks in Advance.Passport card only good on land crossings (in my experience).
As for FMM, I just fill out the 180 day online (around $30 USD), print out, along with receipt, take them to PedEast for the stamp, then you should be good. When I travel within Mexico, I've never been asked to see my FMM, even at the airport. Technically, you should have one for your travel dates within Mex, so they may make you fill out another at the airport. If they feel like it.
You already tired of the paisas in MDE?

The FMM I haven't filled out for some time when flying out of Tijuana. The last time I flew out in January they seemed to be looking for more Americans but I just went to other way and avoided them. I also come back late so they don't have many working and don't bug me. If you want to be safe just pay at the Kiosk and you don't have to worry. Have fun in GDL it's a great place.

If someone could answer this question for me and help. If I go to Tijuana whether walk in or by vehicle, then come back- do they do a temperature check? Or some type of screening? From what I read, any reason visits are ok now, but I would still do the dental appointment thing. Last thing I would want is to be be quarantined in Mexico for a couple of weeks. Is Vaccine Required? Or a covid test 72 hours ahead?
No. Passport card is only good for land border crossing at Canada and Mexico and cruise ships. When you board a plane they will want to see your passport book if you are in another country.I probably didn't phrase my question properly, I understand how a USA Passport Card works for entry into and return from the USA. Yet my question is whether the Mexican Government and airlines in Mexico will accept a USA Passport Card in lieu of a Passport for domestic air travel,. I checked on the Volaris Website and they state for domestic travel a valid ID is required, and for International travel a Passport. Still trying to see what AeroMexico's policy is.
So to rephrase my question, has anyone flown domestically within Mexico and shown another form of ID besides a Passport.
And thanks for all the responses thus far.

Going into Tijuana yesterday afternoon. There was the longest line I have seen in a long time waiting to get there FMM. But even though the essential travel rule has been lifted it looks like most were being ushered into the small room to purchase the 180 day fmm. Scam or no scam I will continue to purchase the 6 months pass it makes entering Mexico hassle free.

Looks like from midnight on Thursday 22nd April all US citizens, tourists or non essential visitors are allowed to enter Tijuana. (no dentist appointment needed). But Mexican citizens are not allowed to enter the US with a non essential visit until May 21st.https://www.mexperience.com/mexico-land-border-restrictions-closure-covid-19/
https://www.mexperience.com/mexico-land-border-restrictions-closure-covid-19/But "Mexico News Daily" from April 20 reports "Mexico eases restrictions at northern border, allowing nonessential travel to 5 states" here is a link https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/coronavirus/mexico-eases-restrictions-at-northern- border /.
Only Chihuahua is excluded because restriction now applies only to states with high coronavirus risk.
Published on Tuesday, April 20,2021.
Starting Thursday, people in the United States will be permitted to enter Mexico for nonessential purposes via land crossings in all but one of the country's six northern border states.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE) said on Twitter that the ban on nonessential land travel from the United States to Mexico will remain in place until 11:59 pm On May 21 but only in border states that are high-risk orange or maximum-risk red on the federal government's coronavirus stoplight map.
Of the six states, Coahuila, Nuevo LEóand and Tamaulipas are currently low-risk green, Baja California and Sonora are medium-risk yellow and Chihuahua is orange.
As of 12:00 am Thursday, when the current restrictions expire, people will be free to enter Mexico from the United States via crossings in all border states except Chihuahua — at least until an updated stoplight map takes effect next Monday and could result in changes to the border states' colors on the map.
Meanwhile, the United States Department of Homeland Security has extended its restrictions on nonessential land travel from Mexico until 11:59 pm On May 21.
"The restriction suspends the entry into the United States via land border, ferry crossing, rail, or through coastal ports of entry from Canada and / or Mexico, as immigrants or nonimmigrants for any travel that is not deemed essential," says a statement issued by USA Customs and Border Protection on Monday.
The SRE said that Mexico and the United States are in talks to ease cross-border travel restrictions depending on coronavirus infection rates on both sides of the border.
Some Twitter users expressed anger that people in the United States will largely be able to cross into Mexico for nonessential purposes while Mexicans won't be able to do the same in the opposite direction.
"Why can American citizens freely enter and leave our country without any restriction? Are they immune to Covid? Since the pandemic started, there have been no restrictions for them, only for us, the Mexican citizens," tweeted one person, apparently referring to reports that USA Travelers haven't been stopped from entering Mexico for nonessential purposes.
The SRE also announced that the ban on nonessential travel into Mexico via the southern border would continue until May 21.
While the restrictions on nonessential travel across the northern border were introduced more than a year ago, the southern border ban only took effect a month ago.

And thanks for all the responses thus far.Surfer I have not traveled without my passport book. One time I was in a hurry and left the house without my passport book and was in freeway traffic when I realized it. I leave my passport card in my car all the time so I had a decision to make. Take the chance that I will be able to fly with just the card or risk being late and go back and get my book. I went back for the book and was happy I did as I had a feeling I would have a hard time getting on the plane without it. My opinion is that the people looking at passports will be confused by the card and not think it's real.
So my question is why are you so hesitant about the book? Once in your destination just keep it in hotel lock box or somewhere secure and use the card as ID to walk around with. That's what I do and never have been questioned.
Good luck and sorry I couldn't have a more precise answer for you.

Mexico News Daily.The difference is the rate of vaccinations. Very few people in Mexico were vaccinated whereas in the US we are at around 50% and getting closer to herd immunity. A third wave is in the forecast in summer in Mexico but not in the US.

So to rephrase my question, has anyone flown domestically within Mexico and shown another form of ID besides a Passport.For what it's worth, I never travel anywhere in Mexico with my passport; only my passport card. When I did travel within Mexico (before the shit show), I flew out of Tijuana, via CBX, and I only used my passport card. The last time was when I went to Merida Jan 2020, and before that, it was Monterrey in Oct 2019. I used the card with Volaris and Aeromexico.
Is it the same now? Honestly, I won't know until I start traveling again.

If the airline is just asking for government issued photo ID, like a drivers license, okay.Yep, I got turned down taking a flight back to the states from Mexico. Very expensive lesson. I was trying to save money, ended costing an additional $500-700, in Uber, change fees and rental car. I still barely made my international flight in Houston, to Moscow, but it was a crazy 12-14 hours.

The guys are in the big asses love Colombia. For me I avoid Colombia, and love Mexico.
No. A passport card is not valid in Mexico in lieu of a passport. If the airline is just asking for government issued photo ID, like a drivers license, okay.I flew, about a month ago, from MTY to CDMX and return. Was not ever asked for anything other than ID, no FMM, I showed my passport card without issues.

Is it the same now? Honestly, I won't know until I start traveling again.This is what I have surmised is that a Passport Card will work for domestic air travel within Mexico. Logically when you think about it, they issue an FMM with a Passport Card and associated number, so if the Mexican Visa is issued with it, why would you be barred from flying domestically with it as Mexican Immigration has recognized it. And Volaris has confirmed this, yet we still have a lot of different opinions about my question regarding it.
I appreciate everyone's feedback on this as I may do some travelling in Mexico during the next month while Colombia is surging and in lockdown mode. As soon as that's over, adios Mexican Chicas, I'm back to MDE, albeit the food is great in Mexico.

And thanks for all the responses thus far.I fly one round trip from Tijuana per month. While I carry my passport with me because Volaris has told me I might be refused without it, I have never been asked for it. My passport card has always been sufficient ID. I also always carry a valid FMM. Very rarely asked for it, but you can get deported if you are stopped and don't have it. Once or twice last year they were checking FMM's of people returning and trying to take them off of them. I just told them I was going to Tijuana (in Spanish) and they let me keep it every time. I haven't seen them doing that this year.

Dickus,
Don't know what you do on your monthly trip out of Tijuana, but it sounds juicy.
Want to hear details what you do on those trips.
Surfer I have not traveled without my passport book. One time I was in a hurry and left the house without my passport book and was in freeway traffic when I realized it. I leave my passport card in my car all the time so I had a decision to make. Take the chance that I will be able to fly with just the card or risk being late and go back and get my book. I went back for the book and was happy I did as I had a feeling I would have a hard time getting on the plane without it. My opinion is that the people looking at passports will be confused by the card and not think it's real.
So my question is why are you so hesitant about the book? Once in your destination just keep it in hotel lock box or somewhere secure and use the card as ID to walk around with. That's what I do and never have been questioned.
Good luck and sorry I couldn't have a more precise answer for you.As I previously posted, if you have an FMM form issued in Mexico using your Passport card, then for flying domestically I don't see how they can deny you to fly domestically as Immigration has accepted the "card" as ID and if someone with an airline challenged you, all you would have to do is show them your FMM.
And you do have a good question as to why I'm hesitant to bring my Passport (Book) into Mexico, and the answer is if I don't need to, I don't want to, because I literally guard my Passport with my life.
So the obvious reason is a Passport is a pain in the ass if lost, especially in a foreign Country, but in my case, I have multiple entry visas for two Countries good for five and ten years each which took months to get, and are pasted into my Passport which I would have a difficult time replacing if I lost my Passport, hence my hesitancy.

What if you get on the flight from Tijuana to bumfuck using your card. But then bumfuck to Tijuana they tell you that you must show a passport or you are not going anywhere? If I don't remember anything from the Boy Scouts 40 years ago, I remember the motto is Be Prepared. No sense in not being prepared on purpose.

I will try to use just the card, but have my book with me also just in case. I will let you know how it goes.

Planning on making a trip into Tijuana and was wondering what the pedestrian crossing time back into San Diego, say after 10 pm, has been this past week or so. I know it's usually no wait at that time, mid-week, I'm just wondering what it's been like with all the shit going on recently. 5 hour crossing mid morning on a Friday, for example.

If one needs a room from Noon to 3 or 4 PM on Friday afternoon in the Zona, what is the best option?

Planning on making a trip into Tijuana and was wondering what the pedestrian crossing time back into San Diego, Just look at the website.

For whatever fuckhead reason, the Sentri lanes only has 4 lanes open again on this Friday night. The wait was not as bad this time. But last Friday Sentri only used 3 gates and the line went all the way to the roundabout and took 1.5 hours. I literally put my car in park several times.
Just look at the website.

Hello everyone!
After getting tired of waiting in line almost an hour at midnight on a Saturday night to cross the general pedestrian line in late March I decided to apply for global entry. I had heard many stories of people waiting months if not years for a simple conditional approval of their application so naturally I was worried. Others have stories of waiting to find an interview due to not finding any available times for a year at a time.
So I decided to just go for it and applied on Friday April 23 at 8 pm. By Saturday night the next day on April 24 I got an email that my application was conditionally approved and I could schedule my interview. I looked out of curiosity and can confirm that NOTHING was available anywhere in California! I checked other states out of desperation but could not fathom doing so much for an interview. I decided to call it a day and went to sleep.
The next night on Sunday April 25 I checked again and once again spent about an hour clicking different locations and different states and had no luck finding any apportionments at all. Finally after about an hour of checking I was able to find an appointment for Monday April 26 the next day! I couldn't believe my luck and quickly booked the appointment. Don't forget I only started the application a few days before so I couldn't believe what was happening.
The next day at 5 pm I had my appointment for global entry at the lax Culver City location. I got there about 20 minutes earlier than my appointment and was called within 5 minutes to interview with the officer. The process took less than 10 minutes. A simple fingerprint / palm scan and a few basic personal questions about my occupation and travel history and I was done. The officer informed that my application would be approved or denied within a few days or weeks due to covid.
I went home and opened my laptop at around 7 pm and there was my email that my application was fully approved and to expect my card in the mail. Today is Monday May 3 and the card already arrived to my residence!
I don't know if this is a record but I literally applied for the initial process and had my card within 10 days! I am writing to encourage those who have been hesitant to go for it! I do have a clean record so that may have accelerated the process but I'm still surprised it only took me 10 days for the whole process to be completed! I have been crossing for over 5 years now and the wait times for the general lines were never more then 40 minutes or less.
This one incident of waiting over an hour in late March after midnight convinced me to apply and see what happens. I am very happy it all worked out. I hope many of you that were thinking of applying also will go for it and see what happens! Don't forget to keep checking the appointments website because cancellations do happen and that is how I was able to find an appointment so quickly!
I even texted the Captain multiple times and he couldn’t believe how fast my process went!!!
Hope this helps!

InsolenSpike,
The return foot and car traffic has been unpredictable and very long in the last month, April, after CoVid restriction was lifted. Lots of people are driving out after over a year in isolation.
Last night after 10 on a Sunday, the foot traffic was estimated by CBP over 70 minutes; ready car lanes over 5 hours. We crossed in SENTRI car lanes in 10 minutes. CBP guy did not look at the cards, asked if we had anything to declare and waved us through.
Congrats with your new CLOBAL ENTRY. Your quick interview and approval are very good news and a big encouragement for people who have to spend many hours waiting at the border.
I know you are a good man and a solid wingman to have on the road. Looking forward to have fun with you on the next trips.

After four days in Tijuana, I Showed up at SY pedestrian crossing Mexican side today at around 11 am. The line was all the way to the road and it was a complete shitshow. People were saying its like 3-4 hrs wait and the line wasn't moving as was getting longer by the minute. I thought I was going to miss my flight out of SD so so I called a buddy in Tijuana and he found someone who was waiting in the car line who was pretty close to the passport control. I cut across the traffic lanes on foot across from the duty free / liquor store and got in his car, then got through the border in ten minutes. I guess you are not supposed to do it, but nobody stopped me. Then the guy took me to SD airport. Of course I had to tip the guy heavily but it was better than missing a flight. It felt like some Jason Bourne shit.
As I might go back I'm looking at Global Entry now, as I don't want to deal with the zoo that is the SY pedestrian crossing. I guess you would just cut the pedestrian line to get to the Global Entry (Or Sentri) pedestrian lane at passport control? I bailed before I got to that point, so I didn't see where you would go if you had Global Entry. If anyone knows how Sentri / Global Entry works for pedestrians, I would be interested to know.

Going to Tijuana on cinco de mayo.
Going to stay at hotel Rizo.
What's the best time to cross on foot 12 pm maybe.
Crossed into Tijuana Thursday about 4 ish. Both my wingman and I were asked to pay $30 for visa. We were given the reason that casual trips to Mexico no longer ok. In the last year this equals 6 trips with no requirement to pay and 3 trips with a requirement to pay.
Coming back 11 am ish Friday border was crazy. Some dude claimed to put my wingman and I front of line for $25. I asked questions about details. He was like you go to front of line. Seemed sketchy but line was long af and not moving. He got a police officer to come over and back his story. This means more now but I am use to 90's and 2000's when police were ALL about the money.
What eventually happened is we took the deal for $20 each. There is what looks to be a handicap line at the front to the right. We stood in that line for a while. No one was entering from either main line or handicap line. Sentri were being allowed through.
When they did open things up both main line and handicap line merged together. For $20 I went from about 3 hours away to maybe 9th person to enter.
Weekday mornings is usually the worst time cross back to the US. The line usually is shorter by 11 am however. My guess is that the lines were longer since it was a Monday.

Re the Sentri drive back. Seems like they got a cop to handle the intersection on to the Sentri bridge. You can no longer take the limo route back to the Sentri lanes because the traffic cop blocks a you-turn onto the Sentri bridge. I tried, ran into a police tape, and a cop came up and told me to get to the back of the line like everyone else. Seems like they put a cop here on the weekends starting Friday night. I guess in the US, we put up a traffic light. Tijuana is too poor to do that. It's unfortunate that Homeland cannot use our Global entry fees to put up a traffic light for them because only Americans are the ones using the Sentri lanes.
Captain Solo

Where is this Sentri bridge?
I normally take Benito Juarez, the Medical lane, you turn at the old McDonald's rotary, drive past hotel Pueblo Amigo, before Caliente, take a left turn onto Calle Tercera one short block, cut into the line on Padre Kino to Sentri lane at that intersection. When traffic is heavy, Policia Transito would block the Sentri lane with yellow tape. If you cut the line and break that tape, Polciia Transito once threatened me with 8000-peso fine, but after some lecturing he let me go, hehe.
If entrance to Sentri lane at Calle Tercera is blocked with yelloe tape, You would have to go South on Padre Kino about 1/3 mile and turn around at the first rotary to join the Sentri line going North on Padre Kino. That Sentri line looks long but usually goes very fast.
Some night the line was too long, we would just you turn back to Zona Rio for fine dining, drinking, them back to Zona Norte partying and bagging hot girls until traffic clears up hehe.
So you basically just cut into the line you weren't supposed to be in, and paid some random dude $40 bucks in the process.
I'd be careful with this. I've seen a guy get beaten up by other waiting line, for trying to cut in front of them.

Don't let stupid assholes abuse and rob you.

Don't let stupid assholes abuse and rob you.That's how the line works those who don't want to wait 3 hours walk into medical lane and see if anyone challenges them. Giys over 60 won't be challenged. Woman in general even gringos won't be challenged. I've watched thousands walk into that line and only saw 1 person say anything. But myself? The 2 times I did it, both after waiting 3 hours and witnessing hundreds cut the line, usually when ibwasbonly 30 feet away, both times people went ballistic. Because I'm gringo looking. So keep that in mind. Is it worth it to cut the line for 20 bucks? I'd say yes if you only go 2 or 3 days a year. A lot guys from east coast wouldn't dare cut the line because on east coast you cut a 10 minute grocery line and it will be a fist fight even if two people who hadn't been in a fight in 30 years. If you are really into making it smooth buy a cane, and nobody will bother you. I watch grandmas grandpas in theirb70's 80's running with the cane and walker. I'm not gonna type the rest of it but there's about 7 more scams by foot and USA border patrol is in cahoots on all of them. All you have to do is watch and listen to the conversations.

I am guessing CBP guys are in on it, taking bribes from Mexican criminals and let these guys move fake handicapped people ahead of others.
I don't use pedestrian lanes. If I do it would piss me off enough to send complaints to CBP and HSI. Since they keep abusing a lot of people, perhaps news reporters of papers in San Diego should be alerted to investigate and bring the abuse to light. That would put a stop to it.
If we let American government workers abuse their positions, soon the US will be a shithole country ridden with corruptions and abuses by everyone just like Mexico. Have to fight back.
Captain Solo

You can do it anonymously on line:

Don't worry of reprisals. I have backing from the Secretary of HSI and other agencies.
If there are any reprisals or retaliation, document the events with names and facts so contingency attorneys can file claims and law suits for damages.
First all just curioius...have you actually tried using violence to solve your problems in Mexico....have you actually seen anyone try to use violence to solve their problems in Mexico...I have a lot of experiences down there....just curious how that went for the people fighting.
Yea I get your hesitation. I have seen a lot of shady things happen in my years of going to Tijuana / Rosarito / Ensenada.
It seemed more official in a Mexico kind of way to me. By the time the line started moving I was with a group of about 40-50 people. Mexican policia endorsed it. The gal running the show at the front of the line was talking to the officers checking the passport at the gate.
I really do not think it was much different then the people who pay to get on a shuttle to get let out into the line just before the border building check place. There use to be two ways of crossing the border on foot. Now there seems to be three ways. One free way with a long line. One shuttle pass for just under $10 and one express line for $20. The shuttle bus may still be the best. Last time I did that had to wait 2 shuttle busses before I was able to get on the shuttle tho.
So you basically just cut into the line you weren't supposed to be in, and paid some random dude $40 bucks in the process.
I'd be careful with this. I've seen a guy get beaten up by other waiting line, for trying to cut in front of them.

I also saw Americans walking towards the front of the line. Maybe they have Global Entry? Don't know though.My experience was different because the line was stopped. Sentri were being allowed through but the main line was stopped.
What ended up happening was about 40-50 people were on the right side (what looked like a handicap line) and the main line was on the left side. Before the line opened back up the lady running the show went and talked to the officers checking passports. It looked like both USA and Mexico officers were up there. A couple minutes after that the officers at the gate start allowing people through and the two lines merge.
My guess is if the lines are moving it is just a merging thing going on you talking about.
I think the last part of your post was the Sentri line.
If it was just some dude not working with the policia or officers at the gate maybe I would agree.
From what I saw what is going on is just as valid as the shuttle passes. They essentially picking people up at about the same spot and bringing them to the front of the line in different ways.
Not sure if it is official on any level in the government but it looked about as legit as the shuttle service to me.
These guys are dudes who have found a way to make more money doing this than selling $7 bus rides. They have no authority, they just try to look official with ID around there neck and a fanny pack.

Its a total scam. One time one of those guide dudes brought 4 people up. There was not much of a handicap line at the time and they stepped into the general line in front of us. We told them the line is way back there, they didn't budge so walked up to cbp and pointed out the line cutters. They then new the gig was up and left the line. They then went to talk to the dude they payed out of view from cbp. They waited there until the line started to move and then 2 of them joined the handicap line.
I'm sure cbp is not in on the scam but Tijuana police is probably a different story. The solution would be for cbp to call up the handicap line first instead of letting the lines merge. They could then weed out those that don't belong in the handicap line.
Don't confuse the lines of all male Mexicans lined up at the far right. Not sure what that is all about, but when they let them in they go into the old building to the right once they are sent through.
As I previously posted, if you have an FMM form issued in Mexico using your Passport card, then for flying domestically I don't see how they can deny you to fly domestically as Immigration has accepted the "card" as ID and if someone with an airline challenged you, all you would have to do is show them your FMM.
And you do have a good question as to why I'm hesitant to bring my Passport (Book) into Mexico, and the answer is if I don't need to, I don't want to, because I literally guard my Passport with my life.
So the obvious reason is a Passport is a pain in the ass if lost, especially in a foreign Country, but in my case, I have multiple entry visas for two Countries good for five and ten years each which took months to get, and are pasted into my Passport which I would have a difficult time replacing if I lost my Passport, hence my hesitancy.Well on my visit I just used my passport card at the airport and had no issues.

Don't let stupid assholes abuse and rob you.Thank you. How fucking gullible can people be. No wonder Mexicans constantly laugh at "gringos estupidos". I think they enjoy laughing about it almost as much as spending the money.
At the risk of being redundant, CBP doesn't care. They have no control over what happens in the line on the Mexican side. They only have control over who passes through their checkpoint. The agents' responsibility at the first entry point is solely line movement control and documentation. Oh, there may be that very rare CBP agent who may stall your entry for an hour or two if they see you cut line (or somebody rats you out) but I've only seen it happen maybe once or twice ever.

Years ago, I duked it out with a taxista who was trying to scam me. After it became obvious he couldn't win, 10 or 15 of his taxista buds jumped in and I had to draw my knife because I was carrying a bag I couldn't turn loose. Fortunately, we were near the office of a doctor I know and I ducked in his office. They tried to follow but he had seen the commotion and called his security and dog-cussed them in Spanish. Merchants don't want any part of that shit and they will take your side especially if they know you or think you might buy something.
Another time, a taxivan driver tried to fight me over 5 pesos. It was the hardest 5 pesos he never earned.
About 5 years ago, I put a knife in the belly of a thug who was trying to break in on me. He was so stoned he hardly noticed but his companion thugs did and got him the hell out of there.
I'm a foot taller than 99% of the population of Baja and I pump iron every day, so outside of those three, nobody down here has ever tried to fuck with me. If you're not a midget or helpless, your experience will probably be similar.
BUT, and this is an important but: It's not a good idea to fuck with people off the street down here unless you have to. Nearly everybody has a cousin who is a cop or cartel and they can fuck your life up bad. Better to walk and live to fight another day.

You are correct the line is in Mexico and CBP has no jurisdiction, but they can still dick with the perps once they are in US soil.
I had a guy cutting in ahead of me inside the building. I told him to get back in line or I would call CBP. The woman CBP heard the exchange and sternly ordered the guy back and start over at the beginning of the line hehe.
Doing something is better than just shutting up and take the abuses.

I stayed at Hotel Pueblo Amigo this trip and it was a mixed bag.
Pros: nice room, casino, full service onsite restaurant and great staff. Very nice area in general.
Cons: location, location, location. It's pretty much a cab ride to the places I like to go and stuff I like to eat (eg there are two great menudo joints within 5 minutes of Ticuan). There is stuff around the hotel like a giant Super Ley, but I'm not going to Mexico to fill up a shopping cart.
In fairness, I did leave out a major pro, which is the cool doormen. The biggest benefit over Ticuan is girls don't need ID. As long as you go down to meet them in the lobby, just bypass the front desk, head straight to the elevator and up to your room. When I checked in on Sunday, the front desk had a doorman show me up to my room. I tipped the guy just $2 and he was cool as hell during the rest of my stay. Sometimes I need a reminder that a little money goes a long way in Mexico because all the doormen were cool as fuck up until I checked out this morning. Some of the fellas were giving looks of approval as I paraded up three escorts Monday (morning, afternoon and night). Two of the door guys gave me a thumbs up on the one below.

Nearly everybody has a cousin who is a cop or cartel and they can fuck your life up bad. Better to walk and live to fight another day.I once fought 10 meseros in HK about 10 years ago, it was over a girl and I got tossed into the callejon on my face.
I stayed at Hotel Pueblo Amigo this trip and it was a mixed bag.
Pros: nice room, casino, full service onsite restaurant and great staff. Very nice area in general.
Cons: location, location, location. It's pretty much a cab ride to the places I like to go and stuff I like to eat (eg there are two great menudo joints within 5 minutes of Ticuan). There is stuff around the hotel like a giant Super Ley, but I'm not going to Mexico to fill up a shopping cart.
In fairness, I did leave out a major pro, which is the cool doormen. The biggest benefit over Ticuan is girls don't need ID. As long as you go down to meet them in the lobby, just bypass the front desk, head straight to the elevator and up to your room. When I checked in on Sunday, the front desk had a doorman show me up to my room. I tipped the guy just $2 and he was cool as hell during the rest of my stay. Sometimes I need a reminder that a little money goes a long way in Mexico because all the doormen were cool as fuck up until I checked out this morning. Some of the fellas were giving looks of approval as I paraded up three escorts Monday (morning, afternoon and night). Two of the door guys gave me a thumbs up on the one below.Their WIFI sucks too.

Casa Badóh (https://www.facebook.com/CasaBadohMx/), near the supermarket, is a very nice restaurant with decent nightlife. Republica Malta Beer Garden is a bit further down the street, next to Tacos Urbanos. The Plaza itself has a large, very upscale food court with about 10 different restaurants. You can sit anywhere in the food court and order off of any menu. It's called "The Park".
https://goo.gl/maps/3MfYDH8p72paQQxv6
If that's too fancy, a little further down Centenario is a small cluster of restaurants and food carts called "Cochi's Place". My favorite taco place (Xolotacos) has a cart there. Finally, a short walk across the river leads you to the heart of Zona Rio. You have Sushi Tei, Tacos el Franc, Mariscos Ruben, and all of Plaza Rio at your disposal. There really is a lot within 15 minutes of Pueblo Amigo. Heck, I'll often walk 20 minutes to Corriente for some ceviche, and then after dinner walk another 20 minutes to the zona.

The problem is if something DOES happen and you don't show up somewhere no one is going to know where you are.
Tijuana is fine. You will be fine but there is certain travel etiquette that should be maintained as a precaution on any trip. Especially a mongering trip where something could very well go wrong. Those are the risks we take.

Tijuana is probably the best spot for first timers, because all putas bars and street girls are all within one small secured block, well lighted with security cameras and plenty of people, security, policia patrols day or night.
Tijuana's putas industry has been refined to make it easy and simple for gringos to enjoy companies of hot girls. A lot of girls and bar workers speak some English. The girls will negotiate the deals and take you by hands to where you can have hot times. There are no fears of price jacking or extortions with the girls or theft / robberies around the bar block.

Planning on mostly stickin to HK maybe spend 1 night is all for now.Tijuana is the same now as 2 years ago. Of course you should go. If you don't have time to research Tijuana you need to take a few basic precautions. Have a zippered spot for your passport so it can't fall out or get stolen. There's girls in clubs and streets that will try pick pocket. Have money spread out including under socks but protected with zip lock bag as money disintegrates with walking. Understand this is Mexico, if you get into a fight on street they can stab you, nobody goes to jail in 99% murders. So don't fight or yell on the street. In the clubs people are happy and chill. Don't talk to anyone on the street, just a Hello, will allow a cop to stop you for talking to drug dealer. Cops will likely stop you anyway if you aren't Latino. Don't meet a girl outside of the HK or Adelitas hotel because you can get set up and its not for newbies. And don't wander in the streets. That will be very difficult because the streets in Tijuana are the most interesting streets to wander that I've been to. By far. And don't pay more than 80 90 for sex that includes tip.

Moe,
A number of businesses and neigborhoods are under protection not by policia, but by serious muscles, some sort of cartels or gangs. If the cartels declare an area their plaza, nobody would fuck with it.
Protected areas may still have random crimes, but by far least molested. Not the entire Zona Roja, but just the bar block, is under protection by some cartels probably for a cut of the profit, so no other cartels would try to muscle in that stream of cash.

Senior Member on the USA board. First time mongering International.
Landing in San Diego around 9 am Sat July 3, room booked for 3 nights at Cascadas.
Looking for pointers. Such as killing time till 3 pm, will have carryon sized suitcase with me.
I have varied tastes. I'm interested in the typical hotties, but also interested in less hot / more friendly girls as well.
If any seasoned vets are going to be around would love to meet up, have a beer and learn the area. Maybe even explore some of the less popular hole-in- the wall places.
I've been reading lots of reports / taking notes etc.
Couple questions -.
1) Cascadas. Is this the best place to stay? I'm sure I will sample HK girls and Alley girls near HK. And I believe I've read girls from Tropical across the street will visit Cascadas, and some escort girls —- just want to make sure this is my best option.
2) safes in room — they safe to keep extra cash / passport in? Or should I keep all with me.
3) Pesos- should I use Tijuana ATM to withdraw Pesos? Seems better deals are to be had with Pesos? Not worried about pinching pennies but if I can spend $25/$35 worth of Pesos on a street girl vs 40/50 dollars. It might add up over the course of 3 days.
4) Tip / drinking cash. Bring lots of $1's, $5's and $10's?
Any guidance / mentorship appreciated via open discussion or PMs.
I left Tijuana 2 months ago, miss having fun. Not much fun going on in states. Florida strip clubs twice as packed as before covid and prices higher to point I wouldn't return. Found, by accident today a mini zona norte near nyc. Pretty funny as its shopping center with 4 working girl houses LOL. I thought it was a store walked in hot Latina. Next door was Asian working girl house, and next to that was the black and white woman working girl house. Still not interested I only spend my money in Tijuana.

Any guidance / mentorship appreciated via open discussion or PMs.I would not book all 3 nights in cascadas. The prices don't really change so you won't loose out. For 3 days bring 200 dollars cash and withdraw at the atms out here. I don't know what bank you use but capitol one gives me the best exchange rates without any fees. I use the ATM located inside of Costco. Zona atms have ridiculous fees and even offer to charge insurance. I withdraw about 1500 pesos to 2500 hundred pesos a day depending what I'm doing. Pay escorts with pesos, dollars will get you further at Hong Kong. Figure out the math before hand or you will get ripped off. 100 pesos if about 5 bucks. Don't just tell the waiter to keep the change collect the money count it and don't tip more than 20 pesos. Consider staying away from the Zona, there are way more comfortable hotels outside of Zona. Get out of zona to eat every chance you get. Hit me up private if you want some good eating spots.

It is difficult to appreciate the money in your pockets unless it is dollars.Exactly. Thank you. I don't know why people keep pounding the peso drum unless they own an exchange somewhere. The idea that a person even slightly unfamiliar with Mexican currency can make correct conversions / change in the inebriated state that most mongers monger in is preposterous. Unless it's like second nature to you, you'll screw it up and lose money in the long run.

In general, dollars are used in the big clubs (HK, Chicago, Adelita) and Pesos are used everywhere else. It is easier to acquire Pesos in the Zona than dollars -- money exchange, more atms with less fees.
I usually try to get my money in a mix of 50's, 20's and 10's with maybe about 50 $1's. You will want the 10's for the fischa drinks, less change coming back to get short changed. Carrying some 50's gives you wallet less bulk & helps with the Arriba rates -- start at 70 (a 50 & 20) then maybe go up to 90 (a 50 & 2 20's).
I'd recommend changing hotels to experience girls from each club without that added per visit usage room charge. You'll get much more time pet session that way also.
I try to stay out of the bars during the day & wait until night to go.

Why do Tijuana's brown trout always float on surface?
Hi guys,
How is snorkeling in Tijuana? Actually I am in Pattaya and right here I rather do not get my head under water due to the water quality. So how is it in Tijuana?
Thanks.To give your question a serious answer, the snorkeling in that area isn't good. It's not just the water quality, it's also because there is nothing to see. If you dive, and like relatively cold water, and relatively poor visibility, and like kelp beds and such, there's lots to like off the coast. But if you're used to Thai water, well, there's no comparison. Pattaya snorkeling, while light years better than Tijuana, isn't very good, either, IMO, but I did enjoy the diving. If you're looking for snorkeling you'll need to go a lot farther south, and / or on the Gulf of Mexico side. Or, frankly, Hawaii, which probably has the best snorkeling on the planet.

Generally, the top talent works at night.

You're right, there are more hot chicas at night but there is an even higher ratio of dudes chasing them. There is something to be said about being one of just a handful of guys in a Zona bar on a Monday or Tuesday having the chicas pretty much to yourself. Have you ever taken a chica who is in the bar on an off day getting drunk back to your hotel? Your points aren't wrong but as you get more experienced you'll learn to let things unfold naturally as opposed to an itinerary or mechanical type approach.

If you have crossed the border before, CBP can quickly pull up your info on line. A few bros have crossed back recently with just driver licenses.
Car Ready lanes are very unpredictable, wait time vary greatly depending on what day and what time you cross back. Even after midnight weekdays, expect 1 to 2 hours wait.
I like to snorkel and monger on vacations. Where are some places where I can do both? I live on the west coast USA.IMO there is no good snorkeling on the West Coast. But I'm a warm water aficionado. Good snorkeling requires clear water and a reef. Clear, warm, water with no reef is great for swimming but there's not a lot to see. Murkier water, like the Gulf of Thailand, has more nutrients, hence more fish, but they're harder to see and seem to be in greater than snorkeling depths.
Offhand, Cancun has some good snorkeling areas although the chicas can be a bit pricey. Indonesia has good spots. Parts of the Philippines are good. The DR has some spots. I've only been diving, not snorkeling, in Costa Rica, but I think there are some decent spots on the Mar Caribe side. All of the above have some sort of rental companionship for the single male traveler.
Am planning to go to Tijuana next Tuesday. Will drive rental across border. What is the hassle coming back to USA? My passport is in the Philippine Consulate in San Francisco being processed for visa there so I won't have my passport. What can I expect at the border coming back to USA? Thanks.First, check your rental agreement to ensure you're permitted to bring the car into Mexico. You'll need Mexican insurance in any case. You can buy some at the border before entry.
You will not be checked for ID if you drive across. You *might* be stopped for inspection. The process varies. I've only had them look in the trunk and back seat. I had to open a sealed box once. But some report them asking for car registration and ID. Dunno.
Leaving and reentering the US is another issue. Unless you leave around 2 am you're going to be stuck in a hellacious line. The reentry lines lately have been stupendous. Think between 2 and 4 hours. Crossing at night at Otay Mesa will significantly reduce your wait.
Upon leaving the WILL ask for your passport. As you will not have one, they may or may not get tetchy. You'll want to have your drivers license, and a copy of your birth certificate would be an excellent addition. They may or may not send you to secondary. If so, they will probably question you, they will certainly go over the car looking for contraband. Anything can happen, but usually it's several minutes of poking around the car and a scold for not having a passport.
So, you decide whether it's worth it to drive over. OTOH, you will be asked for a passport if you walk over. They may solicit a bribe if you don't have one. YMMV. BTW, I drive across constantly, but I have SENTRI / GE.

Hope you are not a Mexican-American with a Mexican accent. Bring a copy of your passport or at least your passport number with your ID.
I would definitely not bring birth certificate into Mexico. Why worry about losing or ripping it, leave it home. You can go back to border with nothing. They just look you up. And since you have a passport in the silystem they can see it. I went back many times this year with nothing hut a drivers license. They see your passport in 2 seconds. This is by foot. I wouldn't take a car in if I'm new enough to be asking logistic questions especially when you don't have passport for Mexican policia.
Heading back to Tijuana for 7 days starting Sunday and this is my 4th trip down there. I have only ever stayed in Zone Norte (save for one uneventful excursion to Rosarito beach) for fucking on my previous trips so looking to do a few touristy / sightseeing-type things while I'm there. Any recommendations for some good 2-3 activities?Tijuana is a border town so not much to offer in regards to sightseeing, especially if you are alone. Now if you can find a chica to hang with you you might have more options. With Covid and the time of year I'm not sure it'll be that great.
1. If the wineries are back up and doing tours that's your best option. You could make it a 2 day trip and visit Ensenada as well. Not the best weather now with May gray but lots of good seafood and a clean little town compared to Tijuana.
2. On top of the above if you want just a shorter trip you could do lobster in Puerto Nuevo. Again not the best weather but a nice little getaway.
3. If alone and can't take being in the shithole Zona Norte just go back across the border and enjoy one of Americas finest cities. Lots to do and see in and around San Diego.
Goodluck.
I am going to go to Tijuana next Tuesday for the first time since Covid. Do I need to fill out some form on-line beforehand? In the past, I've walked across and filled out a form at the counter. But I seem to recall some folks saying they were filling out some form on-line and it was saving them either time or money or both. I think it was an FMM form? Do you have to pay something if you go down without filling out a form beforehand? Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Amor,
If you like snorkeling you should try la Jolla Cove, good snorkeling in clear water right off the beach. Just park on the street and walk down to the cove.
In the afternoon the sun shines bright on beautiful ocean life with clear water, sea weed jungle, lots territorial palm-sized Garibaldis, Fast, 3-ft long baracudas and tarpons would fly around feeding. It was fun trying to catch those long and slimy tarpons.
My passport is in the Philippine Consulate in San Francisco being processed for visa there so I won't have my passport. What can I expect at the border coming back to USA? Thanks.Trying to cross back into California without a passport may subject you to extensive delays.
OTOH, you probably won't have any trouble driving into Mexico; about 99% of the time you drive right through. The exception, getting pulled into "Secondary", is about import duties. They may not even ask for ID.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.If you're going for less than 7 days and staying near the border, I wouldn't bother filling anything out online. Less than seven days, you ussually don't pay anything. There's not much time saving, as filling out the FMM form is very quick, sometimes they fill it out for you and send you on your way, as happened to me this week, chick at counter didin't even give me the form after filling it out herself, or asked any questions! She put the form on her stack and said 'go ahead. ' If your'e headed to the interior of Mexico for more than a week, doing it online can help. Otherwise, don't stress, Tijuana is open for business.

I've seen all sorts of cool ocean life at the cove. It was even better in the old days. I live in SD, 25 minutes from the border. Now that I am semi retired I'm starting to travel a lot more, that is until covid shut me down. Looking to find some new places to enjoy the ocean and bang young chicas.

I like to snorkel and monger on vacations. Where are some places where I can do both? I live on the west coast USA.Warm, clear, shallow water with coral formations and pretty fishes = nothing on the Pacific West Coast. Plenty of free diving way off Baja, but it's deep, cold and not at all convenient to pretty working girls. Best spot for accessible, easy snorkeling with pretty fish and willing girls would be Bali, Indonesia. Maybe Puerto Galera, Philippines. Oh, Nosy Be, Madagascar. Or Zanzibar (think spear fishing)!
Will there be any flight restrictions if I go to Tijuana for the weekend and cross back. Flying from San Diego to anywhere in the USA wouldn't get flagged because I was in Tijuana right?

I am going to be there 5/22 for the week crossing from San Diego. Let's meet for a drink at HK and talk a bit. I have a room for the night already beside HK for sat as I like to sport bang several different ones. I'll walk with you as I have been a few times and I know how I was my first time. We have to grab a taco from the famous stand on the Cornor. I keep coming back. Let me know if you are going to be there that week. Yelmustang. See you there Capt solo.Appreciate the offer man. Might be a little bit until I can make my way down. Will def hit you up when I do find time to go. Tryna figure out a way to not raise alarms for the GF LOL.
Heading to Tijuana on Saturday and going walk across as usual. Hopefully the pedestrian line will not be zoo coming back the evening.
Will there be any flight restrictions if I go to Tijuana for the weekend and cross back. Flying from San Diego to anywhere in the USA wouldn't get flagged because I was in Tijuana right?That's a great question. I would guess if you don't use your passport for ID at the SD airport how would they know? However if you are using your passport as ID in both places it will show on your passport. I took a trip to Jamaica last year and before boarding the plane the attendant asked me if I had traveled out of the country recently. I had to think about it since Tijuana is in my backyard and literally SD South but I figured "yes" Mexico and sure enough it was logged in to my passport. They were at the very early stages of Covid back then.
I think some US airlines require vaccination proof but don't quote me on that.
Question for those who have purchased the 6 month /$30/ visa bribe.
Are they still doing that? If so, do you need your passport book for them to stick or stamp something in there? Or are you fine with passport card?

Question for those who have purchased the 6 month /$30/ visa bribe.
Are they still doing that? If so, do you need your passport book for them to stick or stamp something in there? Or are you fine with passport card?If you actually receive the FMM it's not a bribe. I just renewed mine at the airport on Friday, as mine had expired. I try to always have a current one just to avoid problems, lines if I have to walk across, etc. A passport card is fine. I used mine, no problem.

Question for those who have purchased the 6 month /$30/ visa bribe.
Are they still doing that? If so, do you need your passport book for them to stick or stamp something in there? Or are you fine with passport card?It's 100% dependent on who is staffing the line and what they want to do. I've heard all possible variations:
1) Some guys get waved through with just a passport book or a passport card.
2) Some guys are stopped and forced to fill out a 7-day FMM but not charged anything.
3) Some guys are charged a $30 fee for a six-month FMM.
I've crossed six times this year. Never been forced to pay the $30. Once I crossed without a passport (mine was being renewed) and I had to pay a $20 bribe, but did not get an FMM. Twice I had a pre-printed FMM ready and it was stamped and I was waved across. And three times I had the agent ask me what my business was, and waved through when I said "Dinner with friends. ".
If you do cross regularly, the $30 FMM is actually a pretty good idea, as it allows you to use the line for Mexican nationals, which is usually much faster.
No, that was an utterly dumb question. .No question is ever a dumb question. An abusive response to a question is however dumb. This is a question asking forum.
If he uses his passport as an ID at the SD airport there is a good chance his information of having traveled to Tijuana will be logged on there. I cannot see a reason why it wouldn't be. Whether or not the airline cares to look or reacts in anyway to it is up to them. Chances are he would be fine anyway since most airlines are filling middle seats and not giving a shit about Covid anyway.
* Technically if he went to TJ he was INTL.
Bottom line use your passport in Tijuana and your drivers license at the airport. Problem solved if there ever was one.

So, tonight I went to la zona as I normally do every week to check out the talent. I went to every major bar and walked every major street and alley getting to the bars and I got to tell ya, out of the entire zona, I saw three girls that I would even fuck with a borrowed dick--and I've already fucked two of them.
So, heads up for any of you guys who are considering squandering your money for air fair, hotels, etc. Unless you're into titless or fat and titless, you're not going to find it in la zona right now. That may change come June or July, IDK. But, it ain't happening right now. Just saying.

Artiste.
Explain to me again, that the airline's counter agents had your passport's info what countries you went to?
Info on what countries you traveled to are recorded and belong to CBP and State Dept. How did the airlines get that kind of info from the US government?
Wonder what other info are stored away on us and shared with the commercial sector?
Artiste.
Explain to me again, that the airline's counter agents had your passport's info what countries you went to?
When you pass through an International Border and use you passport as an ID which is obvious that you would your visit gets logged into the system. IE. When I flew to Jamaica last year before I boarded the plane in Ft. Lauderdale the attendant asked me if I had been "overseas" recently. I had to think about it since I had only been to " Tijuana " but I said YES, Mexico and low and behold she had it logged into her information system somewhere. This was during the early stages of Covid. Jamaica was actually MORE on top of things than the USA was at the time.
NOW? I don't know what they ask for. I haven't flown in over a year. BUT if you cross an INTL border there will be a record of it. US Customs has a record of every INtl trip you take going back years.
Captain Solo
05-28-21, 19:35
OK.
I understand she logged the info you told her into HER airline's data base that may be used for their business in some ways. She did not have any info from CBP or State Dept. On you.
Airlines, busses, trains, ships are required by laws to share passengers' infos, at least IDs and the itineraries, with US LE, may be Interpol too. That's how LE arrest criminals, terrorists and fugitives and people behind in alimony and child support.
But AFAIK US government agencies do not officially share any citizens or residents info with businesses. If they do it's invasion of privacy. There are laws somewhere that you may be able to sue.
It depends on what you go. Going before 2 or 3 pm is a waste of time for the street girls. HK should be good however.

Hell, I had much better success when the speakeasies were open.
The main reason I posted that (other than to vent my frustrations) is that I know a lot of guys are starting to book or think about booking trips. I'm just giving you guys a heads-up: don't blame me if you get here and don't find what you're looking for. Hopefully that will change in the summer months if some of the pre-pandemic regulars return. Then again, many of them may never return.

If we all had the same standards as Babe Magnet, Hong Kong and the Zona wouldn't even exist, they would've went bankrupt and shut down a long time ago.
The Essential travel restrictions are supposed to end June 20 hopefully. Personally I cannot wait for Pedwest to reopen. When Pedwest was open there was virtually no lines at all. These days you may hit a bad day have a long line. I was noticing today the pedestrian line crossing back was almost 2 hours around 2 pm.

You have way different standards than lots of other guys, for sure.You're right, KC. Sorta. I don't know that it's so much standards as different taste. Captain's post about spinners made me realize, for example, that he likes spinners and I don't. I like tall (5'8" and taller), curvy (36 DD+) women who are firm, fit and in shape. And granted, there's a limited selection of those among the indigenous Mexican population. Usually takes a girl with pink nipples to rise that tall. And, I'm not into street girls. I'm sure they're awesome human beings but there's something about picking up a girl on the street I just can't do. Not judging anyone. If that's your thing, more power to you. Don't know anything about escorts except that most of them are reportedly old and fake and they charge money for their time, right Captain?
Couple all that with the fact that I'm there every week and see some of the same girls over and over, so really, my available selection set each week consists of whatever girls are new that week. So, yeah, it's a limited selection. WALDT and that's probably good.
So, whoever I scared off with my comment about the "titless skeleton crew" at HK, you can come back now.

6 weeks ago my wingman used Dr Appt reason but still had to pay even with a print out of appointment.
Anything can happen when crossing since this all started less than a year ago.

The situation varies a lot depending on the Mexican immigration official. The whole FMM / Visa thing is a scam in my mind. When I first got mine I asked the immigration officer to show me where it said Visa on the FMM card. He refused to do and demanded that I pay or go back.

If he uses his passport as an ID at the SD airport there is a good chance his information of having traveled to Tijuana will be logged on there. I cannot see a reason why it wouldn't be.No. That is literally impossible. Airlines have no information that connects your ID to your traveling (unless you are signed up for a frequent flier program - that number shows the traveling you have on that particular airline). It is only used to match the name of the person trying to travel with the name of the person the reservation is made for. A passport number is only entered for international for the general declaration/manifest; that goes to immigration. That is why when leaving the US you do not have to pass through immigration as you do in other countries. It cuts out redundancy because they already know you are leaving and if they need to pick you up due to warrants or whatever, they can just go get you when you try to get on the plane.
Airlines, busses, trains, ships are required by laws to share passengers' infos, at least IDs and the itineraries, with US LE, may be Interpol too. That's how LE arrest criminals, terrorists and fugitives and people behind in alimony and child support.Info only goes to immigration for international flights. There is nothing like that happening for domestic flights. There are hundreds of John Williams traveling around. Law enforcement is not going to pop up at every domestic flight in the country looking for that particular John Williams that is behind on child support. You only need a name and birthday for a domestic flight. You could even use a fake ID for that because no ID numbers are needed. That is why somebody that is in the country illegally can fly around domestically all they want without getting caught by immigration. In other countries you have to enter some type of ID or passport number to buy a ticket; in the USA you do not.
Just carry the FMM / Visa and show it to the immigration. 99% of the time they only want to see that you have one. Not sure if the Mexican immigration will continue to require the FMM / Visa and limited travel restrictions end.
Mine is about to expire. Next time I will ask for a receipt and see what happens.
No. That is literally impossible. Airlines have no information that connects your ID to your traveling.Ok, so explain the "no fly list".

When I first got mine I asked the immigration officer to show me where it said Visa on the FMM card. He refused to do and demanded that I pay or go back.Learn to read Spanish and you'll see that it does not now, nor has it ever, said "Visa" anywhere on it. It is NOT a visa. You continue to conflate the two and I'm sure it confuses noobs and infrequent visitors.
Every tourist is supposed to posses an FMM. Many don't, there's no way to enforce it for passengers in cars, etc. , etc. There has always been two classifications - 7 day (free) and 8 - 180 day ($30). If you posses one you can cross in the Mexican line and don't have to show your passport. Period. End of discussion.

Ok, so explain the "no fly list".Again it primarily goes by name and can be hell to disassociate yourself with the actual person that is on the list if you ever find yourself in that predicament with the same name. It is a jacked up system really. Representative John Lewis was on the no fly list as well as Senator Ted Kennedy. I even found myself on a list that I can not get off of and even when my senator made an inquiry, the ombudsman told him to go fuck himself. It all started when an officer from border patrol in San Diego called me with questions about Sentry for my car. I told him that I did not know what he was talking about. I do not live in California and did not apply for Sentry for my car. After that my Global Entry was revoked with no explanation and whenever I would fly international, CBP would check me coming and going for about 6 months after. I have been trying to get an answer for 4 years but they will not tell me shit.
Even bench warrants go by name, which I found out the hard way when I used an out of state drivers license for a ticket that I never paid, but was arrested 4 years later for it when I got stopped and used an in state drivers license. I told the cop I thought it went by license number. He said nope, it goes by name.

Guys,
Have complained their GE card was revoked with no explanation under suspicious circumstances. My sympathy to me. E. Looks like Mr. E's name coincides with a couple bad dudes, or some bad guys used his name or stolen IDs to set up their own legit IDs.
If your name is anywhere similar to El Chapo Joaquín Archivaldo Guzmán Loera, or El Mencho Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, or Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria, ICE will shit on you for the rest of your life.

Again it primarily goes by name and can be hell to disassociate yourself with the actual person that is on the list if you ever find yourself in that predicament with the same name. It is a jacked up system really. Representative John Lewis was on the no fly list as well as Senator Ted Kennedy. I even found myself on a list that I can not get off of and even when my senator made an inquiry, the ombudsman told him to go fuck himself. It all started when an officer from border patrol in San Diego called me with questions about Sentry for my car. I told him that I did not know what he was talking about. I do not live in California and did not apply for Sentry for my car. After that my Global Entry was revoked with no explanation and whenever I would fly international, CBP would check me coming and going for about 6 months after. I have been trying to get an answer for 4 years but they will not tell me shit.
Even bench warrants go by name, which I found out the hard way when I used an out of state drivers license for a ticket that I never paid, but was arrested 4 years later for it when I got stopped and used an in state drivers license. I told the cop I thought it went by license number. He said nope, it goes by name.I smarted off to a cbp cop one time at the vehicle crossing and he put something on my profile that red flagged me and automatically sent me to secondary inspection every single time I crossed the border, which obviously became a huge pain in the ass for me. It got to the point I kinda got to know most of the cbp officers, I even got to flirt with some of the hot female cbp officers. There was this one hot Puerto Rican chick that I'm pretty sure she wanted me and I'll always regret that I never did get her phone number or ask her out. Well there was this one young cocky officer that we would always bump heads when we saw each other, until one day it finally got physical and he tried to grab me and rough me up. So I went to the cbp website and filed an official complaint against him. Well to my surprise I got an email requesting that I appear to the federal building in downtown San Diego for an interview. I showed up and told my side of the story and ever since that day they removed the "red flag" that was on my database profile and now I cross with no problem, no more secondary inspection. Strangely enough I kind of miss going to secondary as I was starting to become friends with the cbp cops LOL. Even the cocky guy I got into it with supposedly he likes me now. The last time we saw each other he told me "man even after all the shit you've given me if someone swung on you I'd have your back." LOL. I'm sure he's just some guy fresh out of the military. I felt kinda bad snitching on him and potentially getting him in trouble.
While I still had that red flag on me I was told I could file a "request for freedom of information act" to try to find out what the hell was put on my profile. But the best advice I can give is don't do anything to get flagged in the first place, because you might have to go through a lot of bullshit to get the red flag removed from your profile. But it is possible.

I recently had a dream that I was walking around la zona in Tijuana talking to the street girls, but in my dream there were no waitors on the street selling $8 Fischas. Don't buy a fischa the girl walks away from you.
Buy her one, but the negotiations drag out the waitor is there to sell another fischa.
Negotiations don't work out, move on to the next chica and repeat. My dream went on like this without any sexo ever happening. Hearing in my dream guys yelling & screaming Zone Norte is ruined.
You guys buy overpriced fischas in the bar because your use to doing so, not necessarily because it's a good idea or value. Apply the concept to something your not use and it can seem odd to say the least.
The Essential travel restrictions are supposed to end June 20 hopefully. .Essential travel restrictions extended month by month since March 2020 - they usually get extended a few days before expiration.
What makes you think it won't be extended one more month again later in June. So the reopen date would then be July 21.

Can't tell you more than that. I have never had to use it. Kind of a bullshit system though when you get banned for your name without any due process. Heavier screening would be ok, but just banning people because they have the same name as someone believed to be dangerous is unreasonable.
When I was crossing I asked a CBP where photograph info was sent to. He told me that photo is only used to compare it to picture in ID or passport. Seems like line of BS to me.
Contrary to what some apparently believe on this blog, but the Zona Clubs are not non-profits that bring in tourists to gawk and paw at hot girls for free. The price you pay includes buying fichas. I've heard this helps pay for the clubs advertising in various Mexican cities and sending out scouts to recruit new girls to travel to Tijuana so they can dance and strip for you, as well as give them dancing lessons and providing them with security so they feel safe to be in the club. If you do not want to buy fichas, you can always go the clubs like Las Pulgas or LE Container and pay the door fees and try your luck with the random girls who show up there. I think fichas are reasonable compared to what you pay in the USA or Eastern Europe. Read of a case of a mafia strip club in Florida that charged a tourist around $40,000 for some drinks then the Russian mafia beat him when he ran from the club after getting the bill, then he was sent to jail for defrauding an innkeeper / restaurant. No drink prices posted in the Florida club so he didn't know what the bill was until it was too late. Heard of another tourist in Ukraine that had the same experience with the Ukrainian mafia in a strip club in Odessa. He wound up in the hospital after his beating. The Zona Norte clubs are safe and reasonable by comparison and the drink prices are posted on the wall, unlike in some other countries.

It is facial recognition. Your passport information page pops up when your face is scanned. So that was correct. What pops up from your face is compared to what you hand them.

Unless the cameras at the booth can take clear pics of people sitting inside cars, behind windows, sun glasses, hats, looking down or away ect, facial recognition would be very difficult if not impossible. BP would need clear frontal mug shot in high resolution to do facial recognition with any reliability.
China is allegedly doing facial recognition in most public places, airports, train stations, busy streets. Don't know how reliable they can do it right now.
I do know pics taken at CBP's return SENTRI booths are used to read cars' license plates. CBP would know if the car is registered with SENTRI or not. Not sure if plates are read at the REGULAR and READY lanes.
Pics are taken of all cars exiting the US but the exit booths are not manned. May be in the future they can catch fugitives and stolen cars ect. Exiting.

I've been in places that charge $500 and more. So yes it's a great value to sit and talk with a girl for her just making a few bucks of that money. Now If you can't speak Spanish more than 1 might be a waste.

Since my report last week was such a buzzkill, I'm publishing an update for this week. I cruised through la zona last night (Thursday) and was glad to see some new talent in town. I had a feeling about June / July. I've been seeing a lot of rumblings on some of the girls' social media the past week that they're migrating back to the bars. A couple of smoking hotties I know from Colima hit town yesterday, another from Guadalajara and I was texting with a friend from LOS Mochis on Sunday, who says she and some other girls are coming in July. Saw another local girl in HK that I used to go with who has been AWOL for at least a year. So, yeah, good news, guys. No longer will you hafta pay exorbitant rates for mediocre talent--you can now pay exorbitant rates for prime pussy.
So, Jinxx, the other good new is la zona will not have to go bankrupt and be shut down after all! It looks like some of the pre-shitshow regulars are returning. I spent most of my time at HK and AB--CC and TB are a waste of my time anymore.
Good news for guys who like skeletons, er, spinners: HK looks to be about 60% spinners and 40% girls who don't look like a zipper when they turn sideways and stick their tongue out. So, whatever your taste this week, there's probably something for you. HK was probably like 1-1 girls to guys--it got pretty packed later on so hard to tell. ALSO, HK had the upper floors open last night, so the bar was total access with every floor and annex open (somebody asked about this last week). AB, well, it's still AB. Lotta fatties. Lotta titless fatties. Lotta butterfaces. A couple of Amazons. A gem here and there, but rare. But, at least 5-1 girls to guys; maybe more. During the time I was in the bars yesterday, I saw 1 arriba out of HK, 0 out of AB (Last week I saw no arribas out of any bar in about 6 hours, which is pretty much unheard of--only time I've ever been to HK in my life that I saw 0 arribas). Alley looked pretty sparse for a Thursday night, but then it's been looking sparse for awhile.
So, good news for you guys who have trips booked in June and July. Titty city is back in business! Come on down. But, please don't pay sticker price.
No one is forced to buy a ficha and if you think $8 is overpriced I'm not sure if it could get much cheaper. I've been in places that charge $500 and more. So yes it's a great value to sit and talk with a girl for her just making a few bucks of that money. Now If you can't speak Spanish more than 1 might be a waste.I just got back from Puerto Vallarta. One club wanted $20 usd (390 mxn) for a ficha. Obviously they didn't get one out of me!

Obviously they didn't get one out of me!It's funny, the clubs seem to move around or at least they switch up the names. Harem, now Paradise, was the worst of them for charging high prices. Like $250-300 for short time. They had all the taxi drivers wearing their shirts and bringing in customers. In other clubs you can get 2 hour takeout for $3000 MXN and if you leave late at night (like 4 am), they don't have to come back. PV isn't a great mongering destination though, it takes a lot of work to find value.

Especially in a foreign country. I did that before and if you can make a good case your card co will side with you and deny the charges to them, at least it worked for me few times. Last time was on a remote beach near Cartagena. Ended up paying what I decided was a fair price of $300 in the end and saved $800. They were ripping me off. Also never carry a card with more than $10 k credit.

You make a good point. Pay the mafia dudes with a credit card and keep your teeth from being punched out!
Noticed in Ukraine there were Indian and Turkish looking guys (techies?) sitting around in the clubs, watching strippers and not tipping or buying fichas. Wonder if the mafia bouncers got disgusted with them and decided to make the cheapskate Indian guys pay. . . I felt safe when I visit Ukraine, but I bought fichas and tipped dancers and staff unlike most of the other guests. . .

Apply the concept to something your not use and it can seem odd to say the least.When I first started going to the zona bars I didn't really know the protocol and I would walk in, not even buy a beer for myself and I would just go up to chicas and proposition them until I found a chica I liked, then I'd take her upstairs without spending any money at all in the club. If a mesero tried to push a ficha on me I'd give him a go to hell look and tell him no. So it definitely can be done, though I don't do that anymore. I finally started to realize how much fun can be had when you add drinks into the equation. Plus I started to realize just how hard the meseros work so I actually like tipping them well and even becoming buddies with them and the chicas, even the chicas I have no intention of hooking up with.
But if you have some game you most definitely don't have to buy fichas. Chicas aren't under any obligation to only talk to guys who buy them a ficha. For example if you're a true pua pick-up artist with the intention of banging chicas for free it might be better that you don't buy any fichas. But that strategy might not be preferable if you're only in town for a few days, depending on how good your pua skills actually are.

Dickus.
Bars along the coastal road had some very hot, young spinners at night. Years ago these bars had no clients, the girls would sit around all night but they wanted $300-400ST sessions firm, very unusual market. What other bars have girls for 3,000 pesos? That would be good deals.
Last I heard Las Antorchas near the pier had been demolished. Wonder if it moved somewhere. A few years ago gringo took a girl to his hotel, had a money dispute and went back to the bar after her. Her BF chased the guy out to the street and shot him to death with a Colt. 45. PV is way more Mexican than Tijuana.
There was a tour van that drive tourists to local bars where single women hang out. They were older and heavier nowhere lear TJU's quality. Wonder if they still do. Senor Frog had hundreds young boys and girls partying all night.
La Zona Tolerancia is about 5 miles North of town near the bull ring. I found a few hot girls there. Wonder the bars are still open?
I just got back from Puerto Vallarta. One club wanted $20 usd (390 mxn) for a ficha. Obviously they didn't get one out of me!You should of just bought one if the girl was to you liking. From my experience they cost more but the girls don't drink as fast so you really get more for your money. Besides if it was a waste it would just make you appreciate Tijuana more.

One was a butter face, another claimed to be from Buenos Aires (and didn't look Mexican) but had a voice like Fran Drescher in The Nanny. OMG she wouldn't take a hint. I finally had to get the waiter to break things up. Another wouldn't stop flicking her cigarette towards the ash tray. I couldn't wait to get out of there.
Actually, I've never really had a problem with the Tijuana girls drinking too fast.

Not you per say for having a problem with girls drinking fast just what I seem to read some complain about Tijuana girls.

Heading over to Tijuana in a couple of days to celebrate a birthday!!
Has anyone ever ordered something via Amazon Mexico and have it sent to Cascades Hotel? I am looking to order some mezcal giftboxes overnight from Mexico City but an address is needed. Apparently, it can't be sent to any local Amazon locker. And no, I've never found any store in Tijuana that offered them. According to my favorite bartender, he actually has a hard time procuring it but there is always the Amazon Mexico scalper. I'm making an exception this one time.
What are my public transportation options to go from Cascades to Rosarito for a day trip? And playa Tijuana? I've heard of some frequent local (non-touristy) buses.
Personally I prefer taking the taxi vans to Rosarito. It only costs about $3. You can catch the vans by 4th & Madero. You will see a bunch of vans line up. Your other option is take a route taxi to Roaarito. They cost about $20 I believe. As for Amazon Prime delivery is only available your country that you signed up for it. Amazon is supposedly available in Mexico. But I have never seen a Amazon van in Mexico. I believe that Fedex & UPS services to deliver to Mexico. The corruption has been a big problem for shipping packages in Mexico. UPS pulled out of Mexico years ago because the corruption. Mexico's postal servic is notoriously unreliabe there as well. The Asian maquiladora's have ship their own items and do not work with other businesses to avoid the corruption problems.

They might not use regular vans so not to be robbed.
If Amazon delivery tends to drop off the box at your door after a single knock, I'm unsure if that's going to work in Tijuana where petty theft is a little high.

You guys buy overpriced fischas in the bar because your use to doing so, not necessarily because it's a good idea or value. Apply the concept to something your not use and it can seem odd to say the least.You're exactly right, Rainman. I rarely ever buy fichas. I bought 2 all last year and 0 so far this year and I have been in the bars every week for the past 12 months. You don't need a ficha to tell if there's chemistry between you and her. It's either there or it's not and there's not a helluva lot you can do to "create" chemistry.
While I have had Wonderful experiences with many girls. There have been a couple who it was best to just cut your losses and loss of money and just leave. Some girls are just too controlling and it drives me nuts.
There is probably a way to test for this or ask questions while still on the street. But not sure what questions to ask. Any ideas?
There is one girl who was too controlling in bed (think from Veracruz with nice tats on her body. She is a bit older. Great smile!) but I do really like her and still like to buy her drinks when I see her. Go to the dance rooms and get her nude and feel her up a bit. She always wants to go upstairs and I just don't want to go there as I know she is very controlling.
I do get where they need to control a bit of stuff up there as guys will try to get away with a ton of shit!
G.
Finally after months of researching, I was able to make not only my first solo trip to Tijuana but first solo traveling trip ever over the Memorial Day holiday weekend; just wanted to share my experiences with the community as a true "noob" traveler, so this post will probably be targeted to the fellow noobs ready to make that first trip.
I first obviously got my passport and global entry card taken care of since I heard that border crossing times especially on the way back can be hours and hours of waiting. I also took care of the FMM visa print out, listed it for 7 days since there's is supposedly no charge when only staying there for 7 days.
Drove over from Las Vegas to the San Ysidro border leaving early Sunday morning and arriving close to 5 hours after. I chose to park behind Jack in the Box, paid my $8 dollars for the first 8 hours, parked and walked over to the border.
Walking in, I was the only one in line coming to the immigration (right) side of the border crossing. I was called to the desk, showed all my documentation, said I was staying at the Hyatt hotel in Tijuana, passport stamped and I was waived through. No $30 charge for me, at least for this trip.
Walking down into the taxi lane, I went with the white color taxi cab company, asked the gentleman driving "Hotel Cascadas cinco dollars?" before getting in the car. Driver nodded, got in, threw him another $5 for tip and got to the hotel a few minutes later with no problem.
Got to the hotel around 1:30, was told my room wasn't ready yet, so I hung out in Restaurant Azul after signing up for the Hong Kong VIP membership. By 3 pm, the room was obviously ready so I checked in and went upstairs.
I was in contact with the Good Captain Solo from here. We were in touch and arranged to meet up during my trip down here since it was my first time and I had read about his experiences showing the new guys around. Once I got word he was in town, we actually met inside Hong Kong and got the afternoon / evening started around 3:30.
We started off with a few beers as he told me about some tips on going about my visit; it was still early in the afternoon, so the dayshift Hong Kong crew was still working. While still very good looking girls, the Captain reassured me that what I see now would be nothing compared to the evening shift. I'm sure he saw how excited I was to hear that.
After chatting, we step outside for a break and decide to check out the surrounding clubs, first one being The Tropical Bar. I had been hearing good things about the Tropical bar lately however our walk in didn't prove that. At this for this time in the day, very few girls and guests inside. We did a lap and then walked out, considering maybe to return later in the night.
Next was the Chicago Club. Chicago Club offers a free tequila shot upon entry so we mostly were there for that, as a quick lap around the club showed only a few girls who seemed like they would rather be anywhere else then there.
We then checked out Adelita Bar. Still being early, the club was fairly slow; out of the about 10 girls that were currently working, maybe 1-2 seemed worth spending time with. We had a few drinks then decided to return to Hong Kong.
Back in HK, which seemed busy compared to the other three clubs, I was introduced to one of Captain's friends and the three of us seem to hit it off right away as we watched some new girls coming in for the evening shift.
After a while, Captain's friend went off to do his own thing and after a few more drinks, Edith, came down to sit with us. Captain recognized her before and after they chatted for a bit, he gestured her to go sit with me and see if the two of us clicked. Edith is 27, about 5'6, from Guatemala, natural see's with light brown hair. Lower back tattoo which usually isn't my thing but her body didn't show any signs of damage from having kids or drug abuse. We seemed to hit it off after a couple drinks. She spoke decent English and could hold a conversation so that with her good looks, I figured she would be a good time upstairs. She quoted me $100, I told her $80, she accepted no problem, and we left for upstairs, with a thumbs up from the Captain that made me laugh on the way out. It was my first time doing something like that so I couldn't help to feel a little nervous in the beginning. However those early nerves faded fast once we got upstairs.
Upstairs, I found that she was really affectionate as soon as we got in the room. She allowed me to touch her, and the way she touched me felt warm and genuine. She started with a CBJ, which I had never had done before (only BBBJ obviously) but surprisingly, felt as close to normal as it could be. She did that for about 5-7 minutes while I touched her at the same time. It was hot hearing her react to being touched by me, and feeling her get wet as time went on. After the CBJ, she got on top and slipped me inside her. She was tight and it was a big turn on as she put her hands on my chest and started to lightly moan as she went up and down. She knew how to grip me while I was inside her and I almost didn't want to change positions from how good she was doing it. 10 or so minutes go by and then we switch to doggy. She liked when I slapped her ass as I went in and out of her; as she backed her thick ass up into me, I could only last about 5 more minutes before finishing inside her and we then went to lie down for a few minutes after, both recently out of breath from the session.
We showered up and I walked her downstairs back to the club and met back up with the Captain.
Since I had only seen the street with the clubs on it "La Coahuila" I believe the name of the street is, he then gave me a quick tour of the alley and various street girls and areas where to find them. I'm sure he could see my amazement on how such a thing was so out in the open and encouraged. Even being from Las Vegas, I had never seen such a thing before.
As the evening winds down, Captain informs me he and his friend are going to head out soon; I ask if he can give me a ride to the border so I can drop my belongings off at my car before going back for the night. I didn't want to walk back across the border carrying my things and this gave me a chance to see how driving across with global entry worked.
We waited only about 5-10 minutes or so to cross verses I'm sure much longer on the regular lines to cross. After dropping me off and saying goodbyes, I walked back over ready to finish out my night / morning.
Walking back was no problem, I went through the citizen line on the left this time and again taxi for $5 negotiated before getting in the cab. Felt like I was getting good at this already! Haha.
Made it back to the Zona, and I decided to take a walk around to see if any street girls would catch my interest this time. I came across "Gladys" on the intersection of the alley and Niño's Heroes. I asked her how much for everything, she quoted me $25, I told her $25 but with everything and "sin ropa" she agreed and we went back to the "short time hotel. " Since I hadn't even spent any time knowing this girl, it was a little strange to me right off the start trying to do this with someone I don't even know haha, true noob right here if you fellas can't tell.
Gladys was 23, long black hair, about 5'3, toned stomach, with tight but round enough ass and natural be's. I had actually seen her in one of the Zona Norte videos on YouTube and I had wanted to find her ever since. She was also warm, and welcoming, at least as much as she could be for the 20 minutes. No English at all for Gladys so that made things a bit more difficult since I have lost most of my Spanish from my high school and junior high days. She started with a CBJ which probably took me a good 5 minutes to get going, but once I did and she could tell I was fully in it, she got on top and started to ride. As she rode I loved how her long black hair would get in my face and seeing her try to be quiet while she rode hard was a big turn on too.
I got the dreaded knock on the door and she looked at me, put her finger to her lips in the "shhh" motion and just went even harder, determined to get me to finish before stopping. As I finish she looks at me and smiles knowing I enjoyed it and we got dressed. A great first experience with a street girl for sure.
After leaving, I then got the street pancakes around the same intersection as where I saw Gladys. If you have never had the pancakes, I highly recommend them post sex they just taste so good and only $1 per big pancake.
I then head back to the hotel as I'm ready to get some sleep. The hotel is loud from the partying and the girls walking but I slept just fine, woke up to do it all again the following late morning.
Monday morning, started off with a great workout in Tijuana fitness about 3 blocks west of Primera and Niño's Heroes. $10 for a day pass which was worth it to me, the gym had all the standard equipment to expect; "Life Fitness" brand equipment for any of you guys familiar with the gyms, and everything in LBS made it super easy.
Captain had given me a few names of some of the girls to look for on the street before heading back to the clubs later that evening. One in particular I was looking for was "Caroline", however I wasn't able to find her that day. I didn't end up going with any of the street girls; instead I decided to check out the clubs again.
Back in Hong Kong, one thing I forgot to mention before was what happens when you find a girl who is worth a dollar tip. When you tip these girls, you're basically free to feel them, touch them for a few seconds however you want to. A total new practice for me since everyone knows at the strip clubs in the US you can't even touch these girls for the most part, let alone feel them up and down. I chatted and tipped a few of them here and there. There was one I really wanted to sit down with; she was dancing on the first stage and the first poll after walking in the main entrance from the street, (not the alley entrance). However, she must have been in high demand because she soon disappeared in the crowd after I went to get a drink and saw she had left the stage.
I wanted to see how Adelita Bar was since I had had someone from Hong Kong the night before. Walking over to Adelita around 830-9 pm and getting inside, the club seemed much better staffed and a bigger crowd then the previous day at 5 pm. After getting a drink at the bar, I was approached by "Carmel" said her "Real Name" is Rebecca. Rebecca is 26,5'7 from Venezuela, long brown hair with implants which look great. Does have one child but has kept her body in decent enough shape to not show any real signs of it, obvious butt implants too but I'm not complaining at all. After a drink she quoted me $90, I offered her $70, she seemed at first to not want to accept that low, but ended up accepting it and we went upstairs.
I liked that Rebecca started us off with a shower beforehand to set the mood. She did let me kiss her which I liked a lot before drying me off and getting started. Again starting with a CBJ but I felt myself starting to get used to that so it wasn't as strange this time as the other two times. She then laid on her back, looked at me with her sexy Latin eyes and spread her legs for me. Getting on top of her and her putting me inside her, I could feel she wasn't as tight as the other two but nowhere near being a problem. She wrapped her arms around me and dug her nails into my back as I went deeper in. I liked knowing that she was going to leave a few marks on me afterward. She spoke in Spanish to me while I was inside her although she spoke great English anyway and that just made the experience so much better.
After a while, feeling how wet she was, she told me she wanted me from behind. She flips over, gets on her knees and I go back inside her. She worked her hips really good and it was sexy to see her in the mirror watching what she was doing to me. She probably made me cum the hardest out of the 3 and it was well worth it.
After, we rinse off quickly and I walk her back to the club.
I finish off getting some street tacos on Constitucion and the alley. Ended up overpaying by $1 accidentally but oh well, I was feeling good so I didn't care. Went to sleep, left early the next morning to try and beat the Memorial Day crowd out. Walking in front of the already long line at 10 am was no problem with my global entry card.
Few changes I will probably make for future trips:
1. Uber instead of the taxi. Not only is it cheaper, but it seems to be more discreet when dealing with any potential police problems.
2. Bring a hair dryer! The room I stayed in did not have a hair dryer so it was a little struggle to do my hair before going out.
3. Negotiate and confirm prices before EVERYTHING. Luckily the only thing I really "overpaid" for was the extra dollar for the tacos but I can see how that problem can be avoided just simply agreeing on the cost before any transaction.
All in all, it was next to perfect for my first trip down to the Zona. I can't thank the Captain and his friend enough for their time showing me around the Zona and their overall welcoming to a noob like me. Also thanks to all of you on here for your advice and tips to help make the trip as smooth as it was. I can't wait to return again!

Wow. A very informative report with lots of good tips for other noobs.
That weekend I already went down with a couple bros Friday night, but upon hearing noob was driving all the way from Las Vegas, I did not have the heart to leave him by himself, so I made plan to go again Sunday. Lucky a Tijuana old timer, who has been going to Tijuana since the 80's as a teen ager, also mongering all over the world, was able to sneak out and go. Traffic on FWY 5 was heavy; we departed about 1 and got to Tijuana about 3. The bro likes to stay in a hotel on Constitucion and call in girls for long sessions.
Went in HK looking for noob, finally found him heading to Chavelas. We sat and had a couple drinks to catch up. I was showing him how one could give propinas to girls and lovingly squeeze their assets, but he seemed to prefer keeping his hands to himself hehe. A bro came by and sat with us. I took him first time to HK a few years back. Since then he came back a few times every week and got a series of hot live-in GFs from HK. He was showing us their pics. Man, they are hot. I had mentioned to noob, that if a girl comes by and he did not want her company, just gave her a propina into her assets and let her go. She would understand. Edith came by smiling. I gave her a propina and squeezed her a little, mentioned the noob who just drove in from Las Vegas. She came over to make friend. She asked for fichas twice and noob could not say no. I was about to show him Chavelas girls who may be more affectionate with DF kissing and groping in the bar, BBBJ perhaps even BBFS in the hotel, but after 2 fichas, noob already had his deal worked out and said he would go upstairs with Edith. He was perhaps too nice and could not turn her down for anything. He was never under any obligation with any one in the club, could have turned her down gently and take time to shop for other girls; she would go to the next 100 guys to hook more deals.
It was hot outside. I sat in the club drinking. Noob came back soon with a smile. We drank a few tequila shots. The Tijuana old timer bro was doing multiple girls in his hotel room, usually BBBJ and sex for a few hours. He eventually met up in HK and drank with us. He never drinks but sometimes makes exception when he's happy meeting noobs. He took noob to show his set up for long sessions with escorts and street girls. I went out of HK's back door, found tall Melanie smiling sweetly in the golden afternoon sun and could let go. Took her up to Cascada for a hot session. She's pretty, nice, clean, beautiful, always smiling sweetly and giggling like a little girl.
Noob came back. We drank some more then decided to check out other clubs, Tropical, Adelitas were dead. Headed to Chicago for a free tequila shot. It tasted pretty good. Noob preferred BBBJ so we were walking the alley looking for a few girls known for BBBJ, but there were not too many girls on the streets. Actually many street girls would do BBBJ with a small propina. Just ask them after they take off their clothes, then few would decline.
Had too many beers and a couple Tequila shots, felt really good meeting a noob from a long distance, a very nice, cool, caring young guy in excellent physical shape. He looks a bit like Arnold Schwarzenegger, but way younger and softer. Glad he got a couple good sessions with hot girls and was happy. I dreaded the long distance to Vegas he had to drive back the next day. He could probably book flights from Vegas to SD quick, effortless and cheaper than driving, saving time and energy to romance 3 or 4 hot girls a night, spending more time with the girls to really enjoy their sexuality, personalities, physical qualities and hot, passionate sessions, checking out life of average people, perhaps indulging in Mexico's fine cuisine, clubbing with hot civvies if time allowed.
Always enjoy meeting the bros, sharing experiences and swapping notes about the girls. Looking forward to seeing him and his cousin again in a few weeks.

No birth certificate, social security number, address, bank info, passport photo, nothing? If not, then he is super under the radar and I can understand his concern. They may find out he exists and at any minute a deep cover government agent could show up at his undocumented lair; to do what I have no idea.
The last time I was in Tijuana was 3 years ago.
1- As of today June,11,2021 is anything changed on border? Both port of entry PedWest vs PedWest are open?
2- Do I need to take any COVID PCR test in advance to be able to come back to USA? (or go to Mexico).
3- border officers, they ask for any extra question why you been at Mexico? Related to covid!
4- Is that okay to tell the CBP officer ask tell them to been there just as a tourist and still it is fine?

There are no tests required for land crossings either direction.
CBP may or may not ask whatever the want to, but none of the questions will be related to Covid. If you're a citizen they can't deny you entry.
You can tell CBP anything you like. They are not the morality police, they are looking for smugglers and the like. Telling them you were in Mexico for tourism is fine.

They only usually ask if you are bringing anything back when you hand them your passport. In the rare case that they ask what I was doing there, then I tell them fucking hoes.

Fryer.Well you shouldn't do global entry if you don't want to have your finger prints in the system. Because they do that at the interview in person.
You're exactly right, Rainman. I rarely ever buy fichas. I bought 2 all last year and 0 so far this year and I have been in the bars every week for the past 12 months. You don't need a ficha to tell if there's chemistry between you and her. It's either there or it's not and there's not a helluva lot you can do to "create" chemistry.I probably spend more on fichas, well a higher % of my zona $, than anyone on this board. I go upstairs with them rarely because I'm poor, cheap, and hate bad sex. But I figure they need their fichas, and I like some company. I've met some girls, were were beautiful not hurting for business, and they wanted a ficha even though I let them know upstairs won't be happening. As far as not paying, but talking to the girls for free, . Yeah some girls will do that but the waiters will act like you robbed his mom. I'd like to watch a video of someone doing that, for a good 10 minutes, and see faces of the waiters. Not saying it can't be done, but most of us are not gona look like the type that the waiters don't want to mess with.
After I take a piss, I wash my hands. Then I run my hands through my hair and pull it back instead of taking the paper towel from the HK bathroom creaton because I don't want to tip him.I just piss on my hand then run it thru the putas hair.

I went to Tijuana yesterday Friday and there were a lot of girls working in the clubs and outside in the streets. The weather was great. Hong Kong / chavellas and adelita's had a good ratio male female 1/3 until about 5 pm. Then the Americans stormed the place with $$$ and it was over. The number of girls stayed about the same but many more guys were present. Even Chicago was full at around 5 PM; I asked for the "privado" it was 5 beers for half hour ($45). I asked a girl what she charged for the room upstairs it was $100. It used to be 60 not that long ago at Chicago; I declined. I met one of my regulars in a hotel room and a cute one in the street (2 x30). Happy to have saved a lot of money.

Obviously fewer girls but the math is to your advantage. It varies by bar but for the sake of illustration, I'll use a nice even number. If there are 10 fuckable chicas and only 5 guys really looking for a session, I much prefer that over 100 fuckable chicas and 200 guys looking to blow their load. Also, during days especially when slow, that's when you can score your 1500 peso or sometimes even lower priced sessions. Granted there's been puta inflation, but I even popped a chica a year or two ago at Tropical for 40 bucks without buying her a single drink.
Made a visit Friday afternoon till sunset, and most of Saturday night. It is starting to feel back to normal again with the amount of people. Chubelas finally installed their metal detector and people can no longer sneak a gun into HK by going through Chubelas. Next week it's going to be a zoo because California is lifting all restrictions.
You're exactly right, Rainman. I rarely ever buy fichas. I bought 2 all last year and 0 so far this year and I have been in the bars every week for the past 12 months. You don't need a ficha to tell if there's chemistry between you and her. It's either there or it's not and there's not a helluva lot you can do to "create" chemistry.Actually I think there's a lot you can do to "create chemistry". And if used properly, buying fichas is the perfect opportunity to create that chemistry. One factor is simply putting alcohol into her system which automatically loosens her up a bit. Another is it gets her undivided attention and gives a guy the opportunity to prove he's not a total douchebag and his breath doesn't smell like burnt garlic. Like say you walk in with a Lakers Jersey and just 5 minutes ago some other guy with the same shirt on was an asshole to a certain chica. She sees you and automatically thinks oh hell no not another douchebag Lakers fan and she doesn't want to even talk to you. Yea you could say the hell with that cold stuck up beyotch. But if you've only got 2 nights in town and this particular chica is a spitting image of your favorite pornstar or Instagram model you might have to reach down into your bag of monger tricks and make something out of nothing. The more comfortable she is with you and the more familiar and safe she feels with you the more likely she is to open up and give that GFE that guys want.
I've bought fichas for the absolute coldest most stuck up beyotch and I was able to get her to warm up to me and like me. I'm not recommending that guys throw away money on cold stuck up beyotches. But there are a lot of different ways to skin a cat.
I'll throw out another valuable pro tip for the bros. Keep an eye out for chicas who are already drunk or visibly tipsy. Chances are some other bloke just bought her a bunch of fichas and got her all hot and horny and now all she needs is rock hard cock to serve up a good hard solid pussy pounding. Usually I can look straight into a chica's eyes and tell immediately if she's ready to get buckwild in the bedroom.

The money you are paying her should be creating all the chemistry you need. But you are saying a mf has to go above and beyond for the privilege to pay her for pussy.
The weather will in the low to high 80's in Tijuana this week. The heat in Tijuana is miserable. I avoid Tijuana from 11 am to 3 pm when the weather is hot. There is almost no breeze in downtown Tijuana and I just swelter. I just hate crossing back drenched in sweat. Tomorrow the weather will not cool down till aroud 8 pm. Was originally planning on seeing Liz today. But she told me she is busy this evening. Elizabeth wanted me to meet her around noon tomorrow. I told her no since visiting Tijuana in the middle of the day interferes with work and other tasks I need to get done. I have been cutting back a bit. Would like to find some hotter girls at a reasonable price.

But, in case you haven't noticed, that's exactly what most guys want to avoid. They don't want to "just fuck them". Apparently you haven't noticed but the overwhelming majority of mongers are looking for the GFE girlfriend experience. Usually a true GFE isn't going to come from just going up to some random chica you've never met before and immediately taking her straight to the room. Is this a novel concept that's never been presented to you before?
Senior Member on the USA board. First time mongering International.
Landing in San Diego around 9 am Sat July 3, room booked for 3 nights at Cascadas.
Looking for pointers. Such as killing time till 3 pm, will have carryon sized suitcase with me.
I have varied tastes. I'm interested in the typical hotties, but also interested in less hot / more friendly girls as well.
If any seasoned vets are going to be around would love to meet up, have a beer and learn the area. Maybe even explore some of the less popular hole-in- the wall places.
I've been reading lots of reports / taking notes etc.
Couple questions -.
1) Cascadas. Is this the best place to stay? I'm sure I will sample HK girls and Alley girls near HK. And I believe I've read girls from Tropical across the street will visit Cascadas, and some escort girls - just want to make sure this is my best option..I'm also a Tijuana newb though I've messed w a few escorts before. Not sure how to pm on this sites but I'll be flying in on the 3rd if you're looking for a bud.
Anyone willing to share their BBFS freinds! Pm me hehe. I figure it can't hurt to try ill be in Tijuana for 2 weeks.

The better to score money from men (who are actually drinking). Is that not the case? Otherwise these girls would be falling down drunk all night from all the fichas bought for them?

Is that not the case? Otherwise these girls would be falling down drunk all night from all the fichas bought for them?All depends on the girl some make it known to bring a drink with no alcohol. They have beer bottles filled with something other than beer. If she orders a mixed drink most are just juice.
As far as the little beers most of them are real. When the asshole meseros try to grab there beer to pretend its empty and sell another, I will snatch it back and take a drink to show them its not empty. 9 out of 10 times its beer. Only one time it was like a mixture of water and orange juice. I made a face like wtf. The girl became very apologetic and said she was taking medicine and couldn't mix it with alcohol.
But don't sweat it, you are not paying for the drink you are paying for there time. And its not like you have to get a working girl drunk to get lucky.
Anyone willing to share their BBFS freinds! Pm me hehe. I figure it can't hurt to try ill be in Tijuana for 2 weeks.A BBFS connoisseur I see. I recommend 3 super hot putas that will rock your world. They usually hang out on the money exchange corner across the street from the Chicago Club. Gorgeous but ya know, ya got to pay them a little extra because of STD danger. I normally got to pay $100. But if you tell them to leave the lights off, they'll take $50. Have fun.

Is that not the case? Otherwise these girls would be falling down drunk all night from all the fichas bought for them?Yes that's correct. The bottle is smaller maybe 40% the size of a beer bottle. The alcohol is like 1 to 2%. Budweiser is 5%. Tecate light is about.
4. 2%. Unless you buy a girl 25 of them and she drinks them in 30 minutes she's not getting tipsy from that. I do find woman who are already a little tipsy, happy, like a regular half drunknhappy girl in. A American bar, but they were probably in a room drinking, or doing champagne or expensive liquor with other dudes. Drunk girls will also be the ones to punch or slap you. Or literally leave the ficha in 40 seconds and move to her next target. All the times I've had to get management involved were tipsy girls who I was willing to buy a drink for but they snapped on me, when I wouldn't do 2nd drink or when I wouldn't go upstairs.

Hotels. Are they all functioning as normal now?
I've never successfully stayed at Chicago's hotel, they always tell me full, so Ibiza is my go to, with A / see, good bathroom and part of the HK / LC chain, so can take those club girls over too. Anyone up to date on the prices? I've stayed at Cascadas and the one above Adelita before too, they have their appeal too.
How about money exchange, where are the best rates right now? Is US side better than TJ?
Anyone willing to share their BBFS freinds! Pm me hehe. I figure it can't hurt to try ill be in Tijuana for 2 weeks.I mean. The whole reason condoms get pushed so hard is that it definitely can hurt to try. Got to figure out if the risk is worth the reward for you. I'm wholly out of touch so can't answer as yet, but hoping to get down there imminently.

A BBFS connoisseur I see. I recommend 3 super hot putas that will rock your world. They usually hang out on the money exchange corner across the street from the Chicago Club. Gorgeous but ya know, ya got to pay them a little extra because of STD danger. I normally got to pay $100. But if you tell them to leave the lights off, they'll take $50. Have fun.You mean the three hotties with big feet?

Jackie turns off light in the room so he doesn't have to see their huge dicks.
