COMMENTS: Officially known as Gral. Abellardo L. Rodriguez International Airport (try that trivia question at your next cocktail party!), Tijuana International Airport doesn't usually have much going on. The front of the terminal is right across the street from the fence separating Mexico and the United States, and if you've got a good arm, you can probably throw a frisbee into San Diego county (not recommended!). Several commercial flights arrive and depart daily, including Aerocalifornia, Mexicana, and AeroMexico, but air traffic is generally light all day long. The terminal offers several main floor restaurants, an upstairs restaurant and bar with a view of the runway, several retail shops, 3 money exchange booths, telephones, a fax and an ATM machine. Car rentals booths are inside (Avis, Budget, Hertz, and National) and TAXIS are outside, as well as BUSES. A travel agency is also available in the terminal on the ground floor.

Luggage and arrivals are located at the far east end of the terminal (left side when facing the terminal), and ticketing and most departures are located at the west end (right side). Parking is easy and close by, on the west end of the terminal.

For further information, telephone 011-52 (66) 83-2418.
