A while back there was discussion about the process to fly into and out of Mexico by Permenent Resident card holders. can anyone refresh my poor memory of the process. especially since you apply for entry paperwork online with the airlines.
It took to long to get the cards and I don't want ton jeopardize my standing

Thanks inn advance

Flying to the states means visiting the INM office at the airport before checking in with the airline. Show your RP card and get an immigration form that they fill out the bottom part of (at least in my experience) and stamp it or whatever. The airline wants the bottom part to attach to your ticket and you keep the top part that you fill in on your flight back to Mexico and show in the line for Mexicans at immigration. I have done it a bunch at the Los Cabos airport in both directions. Twice I have landed first in Mexico City (from Europe) and the process was the same, though the line for Mexican folks was a lot longer in Mexico City than the usual 0-3 in line in Los Cabos :)

You will complete immigration at your final departure point prior to point of entry to your foreign destination. While you fly within Mexico (and also supporting countries) you will have no obligation for foreign entry or departure INM procedures.

I have been wondering about my Christmas travel.
I flew SJD-TIJ entered the USA by CBX.
After 3 days reentered Mexico by CBX, where Mexican immigration scanned both my US passport and my permanent resident card.
My question is .....did I do this correctly in order to not damage my residence status?
