I just came back from Mexico on CAL the other day. There's no fee to get out of the US and I was able to pay the $60 exit tax at the ticket counter with a credit card in US dollars.
Rumor I heard is that there will be a new rule in the next several weeks allowing flight deck access for international flights, but take for what it's worth, a rumor
