Just about everyone I know flies into San Diego, then uses rideshare service like Lyft or Uber, takes the MTA #992 bus from the airport to Downtown and then rides the Blue Line trolley to San Ysidro (where the border is), or takes a taxi to get to the border. To be clear, you can fly from the States to a Mexican city like Guadalajara or Monterrey, then connect in those cities to TJ, but I have heard the layovers can be quite long.
Another option would be flying to Phoenix and taking American Airlines to TJ (I think American is the only US-based airline with direct service to TJ from the States, and I think it operates just 2-3 times a day).
I usually fly in, but that's because I intentionally seek out flights with a 1+ day layover in CDMX since I enjoy spending time there. Taxis and Ubers from the TJ airport are safe, cheap, and quick. However, the traditional route (walking across in San Diego) is definitely going to be cheaper, and even with heavy traffic, usually much faster.
Q; Debating if Flying (to Tijuana) in is a good option?
A: Debate no more, it is not the best option. The Tijuana International Airport is not the most convenient place to get to the Happiest Place on Earth (according to Krusty) m.youtube.com

Like others have mentioned, Flying to San Diego and taking the Free Airport Shuttle to Old Town Station and then take the Blue Line Trolley to the border.
Then walk across the border, don’t forget to get the Mexican “visa”, you can get it in the Internet in advance, is free if you are visiting for a few days only.
Once in Mexico just walk to the area where there is a FREE Limo service to takes you to Hong Kong, check in the Hotel Cascadas, for which you had made reservations in the Internet with your VIP Card holder status you will receive discounts on room rates 7 days a week
After “unpacking” in your room, if you are hungry go eat something light at the hotel restaurant Azul, discounted with your VIP card/membership, then go back to your room to rest, sleep well and when you get up around 8:00pm , shower and shave, and get read to walk into the Happiest Place on Earth.
Walk inside the club and look around until you see a girl you like and walk to the girl you like/want and ask her in English, “Hi beautiful; do you speak English?” If she says yes, a little, or not, is up to you to start making it an interesting game to “communicate” that you like her and want to have sex/make love to her.
The only two words you really need to learn is “arriba?” (to the room upstairs) and cuanto? (How much is the cost?)
At the Happiest Place on Earth “Hong Kong”; Technically you are paying for her time; half an hour $140 to 200, for basic Full Service;
anything more; anal for example is negotiable and cost more.
Since you will have your own room you don’t have to pay for the 30 minutes rooms, another $30-40
There are other options like fichas to get a semi private dance and buying the girls drinks so they sit with you, however your goal is to see how things work out for full service so you can get that out of the way and relax for a second nd third visit “arriba” to your room.
If you don’t speak Spanish fluently be prepared for misunderstandings and somethings lost in translation, if you want you can ask one of the waiters (meseros) that speak English to get you a girl that speaks English and is your “type” just make sure that you wont accept the girl if she is not to your liking. Remember the customer is always right.
Don’t overthink things, nothing is going to be exactly like you imagined or were told, just be prepared for the worst and hope for the best that way you won’t be surprised
Just relax stay open to the positive experiences so you can have a good enjoyable time at The Happiest Place on Earth (according to Krusty)
When you are ready to leave,just coordinate with the front desk the time to take the limo back to the border.
At the border they might ask for the paperwork (visa) you are required for o provide when you exit the country.
Take the trolley to the Old Town Station and then the Free Airport Shuttle to the San Diego Airport and go back home.
This first trip should be a recon mission to get you used to doing this trip as you probably will like to enjoy the Hobby.

Remember to be careful out there, and don’t forget Pics and Vids or it didn’t happen.
Flying in to TJ is plenty safe and would be pretty convenient the flight options work for you. It's a 15 minute uber or taxi ride to the Zona from the airport, should cost about $15 or so.
There were some stories here and on other mongering boards about corrupt police pulling over taxis but that seems to have died down. If you're really concerned about it (and I wouldn't be too concerned) you could call HK and see if they can pick you up at TIJ. They have a guy who shuttles people from SAN for a reasonable price, I'm sure he could do TIJ.
I think the only reason more people don't fly directly into TIJ is because there aren't more flight options. Most of us would have to connect in PHX and the layover is more of a hassle than flying direct to SAN and crossing on foot.
