Anyone have experience with the Expedited Customs Option
have read that not only can you do a special departure package with lounge and expedited departure clearing but now they offer similar service on the way in. Thought i read that you can pay a fee, agents will meet you at your arrival gate or customs center and walk you right through special lines for customs and immigration - is this true? How much and how contact?
many thanks

Re: Anyone have experience with the Expedited Customs Option
We did it last month. We arrived around 1 on the Saturday before Christmas. They met us at the gate, checked our paperwork and then escorted us around the very long line right to the front of the VIP line. Same in customs. They helped us find our bags and escorted us to the front. Out in under 15 minutes. I heard from others that the wait was well over an hour that day.
From other's reports, most have said that the line is usually very quick, especially mid-week.
Flightstats.com only gives you 2-3 days worth of info, but you can purchase the arrival service on fairly short notice.
Surprisingly, on the departure day (1/2), there was no line at immigration. The lounge is really nice though, we had several drinks and filled up on patties and other snacks. A very civilized way of spending a few hours.

I can't access the pricing on the link...can you give us an idea of cost please?
Re: Anyone have experience with the Expedited Customs Option
Arrival and Departure package is $80
Re: Anyone have experience with the Expedited Customs Option
Hmmmmm...I think I will do that for my Mom, I arrive in Mobay 1 1/2 before her, so I'll be in no hurry, but it would be nice for her to have some help through customs being that she does not travel much.
Re: Anyone have experience with the Expedited Customs Option
sorry to ask what i am sure has already been answered but.....is it possible to get arrivals only?
Re: Anyone have experience with the Expedited Customs Option
I believe I read on a thread somewhere that they were able to just purchase the arrival service, I think it was about $50. Send them an email, they are very responsive
Re: Anyone have experience with the Expedited Customs Option
We purchased departure service only last year and it was $30 pp at their airport kiosk.
