No Nos at Customs



  • Walking slower than 30 mph when you leave the plane, if you don't want to be stuck at the back of the line

  • Asking questions of anyone walking at 30mph

  • Asking for permission to switch to another line because you are "in a hurry" (5-minute lecture from Custom Officer, interspersed with "everyone is just doing their job", likely to ensue)

  • Using cellphone in front of Border Control Officer

  • Filling out forms - which were handed out on plane - near the front of line while waiting to be called

  • Not having the right amount of grease on your fingertips to enable speedy fingerprinting

  • Asking which direction to exit after you have been cleared through the line


What other No Nos exist? Thoughts?
