Frequently asked questions
How long does a parcel take from Mexico to the USA?
The nonstop flight is about 4h 30m across 3,365 km. In practice the wait is finding a traveler rather than the flying, so parcels usually move within a few days of being matched.
Which currency do I agree the reward in?
Mexico uses MXN and the USA uses USD. Agree which of the two the reward is in before the handover, because you pay the traveler directly.

Because your package travels with a person on a flight, delivery is often within 1–2 days once a traveler is matched, on short regional flights. That is usually much faster than economy courier or postal options on this corridor.

What can I send from Mexico to USA?
