Passengers flying from Mexico to the United States will have to go through extra security check starting Wednesday.

Mexico's Civil Aviation Authority says the extra measures were imposed by the U.S. and involve a review of electronic devices larger than a phone.

Passengers are being advised to arrive at least three hours before their flight.

Expect similar security for flights from Canada.
