Passports recommended for travel to Mexico
By Expedia.ca staff
Expedia.ca has learned that in some cases, Canadians returning to Canada from Mexico are being requested to show passports as proof of identification.
Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada advises that,
Although a passport is not required for entry into Mexico, most airlines departing from Mexico are now refusing boarding to Canadians returning to Canada without a valid passport. We strongly recommend that Canadians carry a valid passport for all air travel to Mexico in order to ensure they may board their return flight to Canada.
