Boxes From Mexico

After checking the website, I still don't have a clear idea if I can bring a box FROM Mexico to the US.
It says
"No Boxes 0 Boxes are not accepted on Continental ExpressJet destinations to Mexico. "

I want to bring a box with a birthday pińata back to the US. Can I do it? If I use a Rubbermaid tub does that not count as a box?

Thought about emailing Customer Cares but ffigured my child would be in his 20´s before I got a reply.

Have any of you had any experience with this?
Thanks for the insight.

If you really want to bring home that pińata your best bet would be to ask at the ticket counter at the airport where you're going to check it in.

The official rules and what the station staff will let you do ain't necessarily the same.

Good luck

As usual, the Snake is spot on with this advice.

At the ticket counter at the airport they said no to boxes and then hemmed and hawed over the Rubbermaid containers. But that was Saturday and who knows who will be working on Sunday. Maybe the best bet is to put the pińata into a suitcase and pack clothes in a duffle bag for the trip out.

Thanks for your suggestions Snake
