I am wondering, as a US citizen, if I can fly within Mexico with just a passport card and not a passport book.


I will be wanting to fly from Guadalajara to Tijunaa but do not know what documents the Mexican airlines require.

@Yishai Gidon you will need a visa. You can get one when you cross the border. Passport card is fine.

U don't need a visa for 6 months and you can apply for one here.

Chilangolite

@Michael Asay yes you do. A tourist visa for 6 months.
