sure, but once you're in mexico it's just a quick courtesy call to the airline to let them know you're an international fugitive from justice and won't be able to catch your return flight.

For the return leg, you check in online, download your boarding pass, and ignore it.

You "had a flat tyre on the way to the airport", or similar. In these situations, telling the truth doesn't help.

yeah you could do that, but wouldn't it be more fun to call the airport and tell them you're fleeing from the law?

That might even be covered under the optional flight insurance

We'll never know because nobody ever has bought that and had a successful claim
