Do you need a passport to fly to mexico if you are a mexican citizen?

Question

My cousin is moving back to mexico, he bought a plane ticket and is flying there tonight. However he does not have a passport, only his mexican ID, as he is not a US resident. He is not looking to return, only fly there. Will they let him fly there without one, or will they give him a hard time?

Answer 1

They won't give him a hard time if he is flying out of a town in Mexico. I don't know if he can fly out from the United States.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

He will not need one. Good thing, because not being a resident he can't get one. Only need for one is returning to US, not leaving.

Answer 3

Passports ae required for all international flights.  probably will not be allowed on the flight.  He needs to call the airline now.
