Only from TJ. You can walk across the CBX bridge directly from the US to the airport.

im pretty sure la paz is not international... they route flights thru other airports

so american airlines would take you to another airport first then shuttle you to la paz

American Airlines HAD direct flights to La Paz from Phoenix and Dallas for about two years.

The last American Airlines flight into/out of La Paz was Jan 9, 2023.

Currently, there are no US carriers with direct flights from the US to La Paz. So, we are back to flying via Cabo, SJD.

Every Google link as well as the La Paz airport site says it is an international airport.

And while there in fact were direct flights from the US, according to the other posters here, those stopped in January. Whether that has to do with the airport only being domestic now (a change which isn't stated anywhere that I could find) or whether American simply stopped offering the direct flight option, I don't know.

La Paz government just had a press release announcing negotiations with US airlined to re-establish flights from the US. LA etc.
I remember flying from Sacramento and LA often to La Paz when I first moved there.

There's a joke involving airline slogans:

Guy checks into a hotel, goes down to the hotel bar, takes a seat on a stool at the bar and orders a drink. Notices an attractive woman sitting alone a few stools down and as there is no one in the stools between, tries to strike up a conversation.
"You a hotel guest?"
"Yes" she replies, not looking at him.
"On vacation?"
"No, I'm a flight attendant", she says flatly, still not looking at him, obviously uninterested in conversing with him.
"Oh, what airline?"
She doesn't answer.
"Wait, let me guess. 'Fly the friendly skies'? No? How about 'On time, every time'? Maybe 'We go the extra smile?' "

He continues reeling off airline slogans, she continues ignoring him. Finally she turns to him and says "Look Mister, WTF do you want?"

"Aha! Air Canada!"

Here’s another one

Guy sits down next to this gorgeous woman on an airplane.
He asks “What are you going to do in LA?”
She responds “I’m going to a convention for sex addicts as I have this obsession with American Indians and Jewish accountants.”
He says “Allow me to introduce myself, Tonto Goldman, CPA.”

Here is one more. Sorry for the hijack but I couldn't resist.

A women boards the plane an sits next to a gentleman who is intently ready his book. She looks over and says, nice day isn't it? He just nods his head. Half an hour later she asks him if he likes reading books and he just nods yes very uninterested in her conversation. About an hour later she asks him if he likes pussycats and he jumps up and to her delight he rips her clothes off and services her likes she has never been serviced. She is just sitting there out of breath and asks him how did he know that is exactly what she needed? He says, "how did you know my name was Katz?"
