Fly into San Diego, get picked up by our driver, cross the border in 5–15 minutes. That's the whole journey. The complicated part of medical travel is the part we handle. No passport required — just your REAL ID or birth certificate.
Most patients fly into San Diego (SAN) — easier, more direct flights, our drivers know it cold. A few patients fly into Tijuana (TIJ) directly via the Cross-Border Xpress (CBX) bridge.
Direct flights from most U.S. cities. Our driver meets you at baggage claim and drives across the San Ysidro border — most patients are at the hospital within about 40 minutes of landing.
The Cross-Border Xpress (CBX) is a pedestrian sky-bridge connecting San Diego directly to Tijuana airport. Useful if your origin city has cheaper TIJ-bound flights or if you prefer the dedicated medical-travel lane.
As a U.S. citizen, you cannot be denied re-entry to the United States. Border crossing is straightforward and our drivers handle everything. Learn about your legal rights →
Going south is super fast — usually 5–15 minutes. Returning to USA takes 30 min–2 hours depending on time of day, but you'll never miss your flight. We build in plenty of buffer time.
You need either a REAL ID driver's license (⭐ symbol) OR a birth certificate. Passport is recommended but NOT required. See all ID options →
Our driver speaks fluent Spanish and English, knows the border officers, and handles any routine questions. You stay in the vehicle for the whole crossing.
Mexico requires a Forma Migratoria Múltiple (FMM) for stays. Your driver helps process this at the border — included with your package.
Possible but not recommended. U.S. car insurance doesn't cover Mexico. Border lines northbound can be 1–3 hours. Our included transport eliminates these issues.
SENTRI / Trusted Traveler members get a fast lane northbound. Tell your coordinator — we can use this lane on your return trip.
Some local patients (Southern California, Arizona) drive themselves. It works — but with caveats. Park on the U.S. side, walk across, and our driver picks you up at the pedestrian exit.
We don't recommend driving your own car into Mexico unless you have Mexican auto insurance. The savings rarely justify the hassle.
Door-to-door transport between airport, hotel, and hospital — all included. 99.7% on-time. Bilingual drivers. Read about Pompeii transport →
