TIJ airport parking cheaper/better/easier than parking in San Ysidro?
Hola amigos!
I'm based in southern California and am planning on flying from TIJ to MEX in April. I'm weighing either leaving the car in San Ysidro, walking across the border, and taking a cab over to the airport, or just driving over the border (probably at Otay Mesa as it's closer, I think) and parking at the airport.
My question is this: would the price of car insurance for a week of sitting in a lot at TIJ negate the cost savings and hassle-saving of parking at TIJ instead of parking in San Ysidro? I'd really prefer to just drive into the airport and walk to my flight and not negotiate the hassles of taxi haggling, but there's no information on how to do this on the airport's website.
Any advice you can provide about insurance, reputable places to park near the border that won't cost me $150 for a week, or what to expect at TIJ would be much appreciated!
Gracias!
