    Immigration and Customs

    Just got back from Negril. Arrived March 22nd. a half hour early at 12:15 p.m. Thought we would be good to go through customs and immigration. Came around the corner and saw a lot of people in line. Two hours later we were outside of the airport. I was stunned how long it took and how slow the officials are. Even when you make it to the Official, they are in no hurry. Club MoBay may be in my future unless someone can suggest a better day to arrive than Sunday.

    There are self check in terminals on the left in immigration if you want. I use Club Mobay myself. With huge lines in immigration a customs they got me through in about 15 mins. including getting my luggage.

    I keep reading about the self-service kiosks... but if there is not an attendant to direct you there, can you just walk up to the darn things if you're flying in on United, Delta, Continental, American, etc.?

    Self service kiosks...you are kidding, right? I never saw them and no one was directing us towards them. Im just suspicious about the whole thing. Sounds like they are slow on purpose to get more business for Club Mobay.

    Not kidding, April Fools aside... just as many other larger international hubs have done, MoBay and Kingston have installed some of these to help alleviate peak wait times. If I were the paranoid type, I'd say that IC agents could be slowing down out of fear of losing their jobs... but I'm not.

    Is flying in on a week day better than coming in on the weekend?

    For sure and Saturdays are generally the worst.

    Thanks! I was trying to decide on buying the Club Mobay for arrival but I think I will just pass and take my chances since it is a early morning flight on a Tuesday...
