Border crossing during Holidays
Anyone know if Mexican border offices maintain regular hours on Christmas and New Years or do they work "holiday" hours?

- Crossing on the 24th or 25th of December or on new years is trully wasting time at the border, we have friends that live in Tijuana and a couple of Christmas we have crossed late, never again, it is trully a waste of time and fuel idling for 3 and a half hours, El Paso can take up to 4 to 5 hours at the border.

- Depends on the port of entry, in California, at San Ysidro they have reduced gates after a certain hour, instead of 24+ gates they will have 4 or 5 only and depending on the hour at whitch you cross it can be a half hour or 3 and a half hours, big entry ports that are open 24 hours will be open with reduced personel.
