Transportation from San Diego to TIJ airport
I'm finally building my house in La Paz - a lifelong dream. However, I'm finding that while flights from TJ are moderately cheaper ( Aeromexico now
has a daily direct flight), I can't seem to find reasonable transporation to the airport from San Diego. The logistics are daunting. Do I park my
car at TJ airport for two weeks at a time, or at a border parking lot and take a cab? Will my car be secure? Anyone know of reasonable cross-border
shuttles? I speak Spanish so I can get around pretty well, but this has me stumped. Help! Any suggestions welcome.

Take the Greyhound bus.

Have a friend take you to the nearest Blue Line trolley stop. Take the trolley, walk across the border and get a white Taxi Libre for $10 to the
airport. A real good friend could drive you to the border and drop you off and save some time. A fantastic friend could drive you to the airport via
the Otay crossing. As Comitan says, there is a Greyhound bus that leaves from downtown San Diego (Broadway and 2nd), but it does have a schedule
which may not coincide with yours; it also stops at the border crossing and sometimes there is a delay while baggage is checked, but it is very
comfortable. I take the local bus two blocks from my house to the trolley stop, so I don't have to leave my car anywhere.
