Immigration at IAH
Good Lord, is it always that bad?
We came back from Cancun last night, landed a bit after 7 pm (our flight was actually a half hour early!) and when we got to the Immigration spot, there were 4 lanes open, out of like 20, and one of them was for crew, and there were probably 700 people there waiting. We stood in line for almost an hour. It smacked of when TSA first started and you'd be waiting for hours.
Is it always like that? If so, I might sign us up for Global Entry, because that was ridunkulous!

Vinbert : Gee whiz....that is the last thing you want to go through at the end of a trip.

Our international travel has consisted of cruises for the past 5 years. Re-entry has been super easy on all of our cruises. Hearing this makes me think that I will stick with cruises!

Government shut down, no one is getting paid and the call in rate is very high.

Enzo : Is global entry basically contactless now? Just kiosks?

I didn't think of that. It occurred while we were away, and whilst I was aware, it was just viscerally so. We were trying really hard to just relax. Emoticon Yes, that's a bit of an oxymoron.

That's what I thought of last night. I certainly didn't expect that huge a line.
But, here's the Cancun tax!

Vinbert : Oh that is amazing ! Thanks for sharing. I have never been there. Do you want to go back or is this a "one and done" bucket list type thing?
