Event: Public transportation and businesses continue to return to normal operations following a law enforcement operation that took place on February 22. U.S. citizens are no longer urged to shelter in place.
U.S. government staff in Guadalajara (Jalisco), Puerto Vallarta (Jalisco/Nayarit), Ciudad Guzman (Jalisco), and Tijuana (Baja California) are subject to a curfew during nighttime hours. U.S. government staff in Jalisco State and Monterrey (Nuevo Leon) have been directed to remain inside their metropolitan areas.
FLIGHTS
Flight schedules have returned to normal in Guadalajara and many airlines have extra flights planned for today, February 24, in Puerto Vallarta. Both airports are secure and amenities are available.
If your direct flight to the United States is cancelled, you might consider booking a connecting flight through another Mexican or U.S. city.
ROADS
We have no reports of road closures directed by local authorities, though some roads in Jalisco State (including between Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta) are not yet fully reopened.
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.
