AM - current MEX checked luggage transit and Argentina entry questions
Hola,
Looking for any recent experiences re: the following:
1) Is AM still checking transit luggage through @ MEX so one does not need to wait at baggage claim before going through customs check and then back through security to the gates?
(I was an arriving but not connecting pax in T2 in January - the baggage claim area was quite the cluster)
2) Does the AM website have a mechanism to upload travel docs in advance (such as vaccine proof, etc) or is just going to be another airport quilombo, as when I returned to the USA from MEX on AM in January?
