🚨 URGENT MEXICO TRAVEL UPDATE — Feb 23, 2026

If you are currently in Mexico or have upcoming travel, the situation has changed significantly.

Following a major military operation, the U.S. Embassy has issued a rare, multi-state security alert.

What you need to know:

Shelter in Place: This order now covers major tourist zones on BOTH coasts, including Puerto Vallarta AND the Cancún/Riviera Maya region.

Transport Chaos: In Puerto Vallarta, all taxi/rideshare services are suspended, and many flights in/out of the region are being canceled due to roadblocks.

Resort Areas: While resort security is typically high, the current embassy directive is to remain in your hotel or residence and avoid all unnecessary movement.

Steps to take right now:
✔️ Stay Put: If your area is under a shelter-in-place order, do not leave your resort property.
✔️ Check Flights: Contact your airline directly before heading to any airport in the affected states.
✔️ Register for STEP: Enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (step.state.gov) for real-time text alerts.

This situation is evolving by the hour.

Do not rely on old travel advice!

Verify the current status of your specific destination at travel.state.gov before making any moves.

Stay safe. Stay informed. 🇲🇽

Very Scary!! This is something all traveler's should be aware of.

This was not my story I just thought it was important information to share with you all.

👇
This just happened to a woman in my community this past weekend. A good safety measure to remind your clients of.

If you are traveling internationally, DO NOT travel with a damaged passport, no matter how minimal, under any circumstance. I was detained in Mexico this weekend due to a passport tear from a puppy chew- however it was perfectly scannable and I had no previous issues.

Austin and I arrived in Cancun this past Friday for a family wedding around 8 pm. We made it to customs and upon presenting my passport I was immediately escorted to the back. I was questioned if I had military or weapons training, what my purpose in Mexico was, and my criminal history.
I was entirely compliant, gave them proof of my return ticket and hotel reservation, and ensured them I would not be leaving the resort. I was still told that I would be detained and deported.

The officials took my cell phone, forced Austin and me to be separated, and refused to let me contact anyone. I was given an emergency blanket and a foam pad. Even though I had made it clear I spoke Spanish, I was not communicated with about any of my circumstances aside from being told I would be deported in the morning. I was locked in a room with a glass wall and guarded all night. I was not allowed to turn off the lights to rest, I did not have access to water, and I was terrified. I was not given hygiene items or access to any of my clothing. In the morning, everyone going through customs could see me through the window— it felt like I was on display.

After 9 hours of no communication, I was given a chance to contact my family. They had me sign a form that they had given me food, then had my phone taken and was locked in the room again. I was put on the first flight back to the states, but was not told until they escorted me to the plane that I would be flying to Houston, which was not my destination of origin. They told me I had a connecting flight but I did not, and I had to pay for another plane ticket to get to my final destination.

Austin, his sister, and my parents were in contact with the US embassy immediately and I am so grateful that they were advocating for me. I am not really sure what would have happened if I didn’t have a team of people both in Mexico and the States pushing for my safety. I was not able to get an emergency passport because it was after hours and there wasn’t anything the US could do except for keep an eye on me.

Thankfully I did not process how dangerous things could have been for me until after I came back to the States. The embassy and our resort both said that people are commonly held for ransom under these circumstances. I can understand not being allowed into the country, but my treatment was absolutely uncalled for. I am home and safe and all is well now, and I spent the rest of the weekend with my parents, but i would not wish this experience upon anyone. Please stay safe and make sure your passports are in good condition.
