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

On that note,trying to track flights inbound to the rock,we get in noonish feb 15,so far all I can find is info for today and Wednesday any one have another link? Muchas gracias
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?
Arrival and Departure package is $80
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.
sorry to ask what i am sure has already been answered but.....is it possible to get arrivals only?
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
We purchased departure service only last year and it was $30 pp at their airport kiosk.
does anyone have experience arriving on a tuesday afternoon around 2:30? i wouldn't think it would be too busy but not really sure as I usually arrive on the weekend.
$55 per person for arrival.
I think the service is great. It's faster both directions, and there have been trips where the inbound lines at immigration and customs were just awful. I always fly first, so when air jamaica/Carribean air was still at pur hub, we got the lounge as part of our plane tickets, but the service with no lines... Keep the lounge, just get me out of that queue.
many thanks for the info saeyedoc
thanks for all the info. as for lines mid week, we have flown both weekend and mid week, weekends tend to be busier at any given time but it really depends on when you get in. if your flight arrives before noon we have had good luck, if between 1-3pm tends to be a bit slower but they also tend to have more staff working at immigration. you might be able to do a search on all arriving flights and check their arrival times and compare to your arrival. worst case in past five years was about 75 min and quickest was about 15. good luck rootsie
