Departure tax
Does anyone know if you can pay for departure tax by credit card or do you have to have pesos. I have seen many different amounts. Does it have to be paid at the airport?

Yes Suze back in the "Olden Days" it had to be the exact amount as they did not make change & it had to be in Pesos. Then for a while they took US Currency then perhaps 15 years or so ago they started including it in the cost of the ticket.
I remember well but of course you are much too young to recall.

Thanks for the clarification. I contacted Southwest Airlines as well & they confirmed that it was included in the ticket. Just a couple of years ago we had to pay a departure tax when we left Costa Rica so nice to know that we don't have to.
