U.S. Travelers in Mexico

The following information is provided by my office from the U.S. Department of State:

Security Alert — Final Update: Ongoing Security Operations — U.S. Mission Mexico (February 25, 2026)

Location: Mexico

Event:

All restrictions related to the events of February 22 on U.S. government staff in Mexico have been lifted.  The U.S. Embassy and all consulates in Mexico are operating normally.

While flight schedules have returned to normal, if your direct flight to the United States is cancelled, you might consider booking a connecting flight through another Mexican or U.S. city.  We have no reports of road closures directed by local authorities.

U.S. citizens in Mexico should resume standard levels of precaution.  See our travel advisory for Mexico on travel.state.gov for more information.

Actions to Take: 

  • Check with your airline to confirm your flight status and schedule.
  • If you need to rebook your flight, do so before arriving at the airport or anticipate long lines and allow extra time.
  • Monitor local media for updates.
  • Follow the directions of local authorities and in case of emergency, call 911.
  • Keep family and friends advised of your location and well-being via phone, text, and social media.
