He must be lucky enough to get to the front of the line quickly. It's never happened once to me when I've gone with my partner. The last 3 or 4 years, it's taken on average an hour for me to get through US immigration, either in Boston or NYC. Maybe on planes coming from Italy a larger proportion of the passengers are US citizens. That's quite possible (my flights have been from UK, France, Germany and the the Netherlands mostly), but there's also the set up. It takes a lot less time to process a US citizen than someone else. As a very unscientific guess, I'd say a third less- especially since all the finger print/photo stuff started. Usually at NYC airports and Boston, there are always at least as many windows for US citizens than foreigners- frequently more- so the US citizens get processed much quicker, and then their windows 'revert' to processing non-citizens. At JFK, there seem to be fewer windows for US citizens than for foreigners, as would make sense, depending on the proportion of travellers who are foreigners. I went through JFK twice recently, and the immigration process was very fast. Horribly rude, but very fast. The bags ... took over an hour to appear :-( B; |

[] The only thing I can think is that it may have said something like "British and other EEA/EU" passports. I don't think it's legal to have a UK only line. I enter the country a dozen or so times a year, and I simply don't remember such a line, at least in the last decade or so- I can't say I ever remember one... Could be. My 'significant other' doesn't have an EEA/EU passport so we just head for the 'aliens/criminals/terrorist suspects' line. Something that is something of a pain when a couple of planes full of US tourists have just arrived and are heading for a golf competition in Scotland via various UK shuttle flights (and yes, that has happened, last Early May Bank Holiday...) Ironically, nearly all of the flights I take with my partner into the UK are from EEA/EU countries, and he gets through passport control quicker than me! I always take the non EU queue, when the EU queue is long. Unfortunately this option is not open to us. I thought it was your only option. I know it doesn't work the other way for non-EU passport holders. It worked for us when we came back from Holland on the boat. There wasn't anyone else in the Non EC resident queue. Unfortunately the passport person wanted to chat... Not that we were in any hurry. -- William Black I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach Time for tea. |

And judging by the make-up and fashions worn by the average teen-age girl nowadays, why wouldn't he believe she was as old or older? The way the law is written, it doesn't matter. Society prefers to ignore the reality of sexual activity in people under 18, often with bizarre results. |
