We all get excited when we land on our travel destination and there is no more relaxing feeling knowing that you are safe back home. However, your excitement is hindered by the long time that you have to spend going through customs. Well, there are some ways on how you can speed that up and these are as follows:
· Book flights in the middle of the day.
Only a few people go on mid-day flights. Because of this, the line at the customs will be much shorter. If you wish to go through the customs faster, it is best that you book flights that will get to the destination between 10 am and 4 pm.
· Get a front seat.
You may not know this but how fast you will go through the customs will rely on which plane seat you will be at. If you wish to go through customs faster, it is recommended that you sit in front of the plane. In this way, you will be one of the passengers who are first to disembark and you can reach the customs area without having to line up. There are some airlines that will allow you to choose where you can sit in the plane. Do not forget to take advantage of such offer.
· Do not check in any baggage.
One thing that extends your time in the airport is the waiting game at the baggage carousel. If you wish to minimize your time at the airport, it is also recommended that you avoid checking in your baggage so that you will not have to wait for it. Because of this, it is recommended that you bring a carry on only. In addition to saving time, you can also be able to save on fees that you will have to pay in the event that the baggage you will check in is overweight.
· Fly to a local airport.
It is much convenient to fly to and from a local airport because these airports usually accommodate fewer flights than the local ones. When the airport has only a few flights, the passengers will find it easier to move through immigration. The lesser the flights, the fewer the people on the line, the faster the immigration process will be.
One of the hassles of traveling via plane is the long line at the customs. We all know that it is important that going through customs is one of the most important parts of the check in process but it can also be the most tedious. If you wish to go through customs faster, follow the tips mentioned above.
