First trip to America, process arrangement

The first time I went to America, I was a little nervous. How to fly abroad now is the same as at home? Is there anything to pay attention to? Most people who go to America for the first time have questions about these issues.

But how can we solve these problems? So, let's take a look at Bian Xiao's arrangement!

Customs inspection of international flight departure process: if there is any declaration, take the red channel and go through customs formalities; If not, take the green channel.

Baggage consignment and boarding pass replacement: Go through the flight and baggage delivery procedures with the air ticket and my valid ID card, and get the boarding pass. Flights in the United States usually need to be checked 1 hour in advance.

Now, international flights are 2 hours ahead of schedule, and check-in procedures are stopped 30 minutes before departure.

Please note that passports, visas and travel documents should be carried with you, not transported in luggage, because every airline

Our baggage allowance is different, so if it is overweight, the cost will be higher.

Purchase airport construction fees and aviation insurance: For passengers with diplomatic passports, transit flights, special flights and charter flights, please refer to the relevant charging standards in the flight instructions for airport construction fees. You can also buy aviation insurance as appropriate.

Go through the health and quarantine formalities: if you are a China tourist who has been abroad for more than one year, a valid health certificate is essential; If you are a passenger going to an epidemic area, you should get the necessary vaccine.

Frontier inspection: China tourists (including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan residents) are required to submit valid passports, certificates, visas to countries, exit registration cards and certificates issued by relevant departments to go abroad; Non-China passengers should show their valid passports, certificates and exit registration cards and leave the country within the time limit stipulated in the valid entry visa.

Security check: Show valid ID, air ticket, boarding pass and airport construction fee. For flight safety, carry-on luggage and articles must be checked for safety. Baggage brought into the plane should be checked by X-ray machine, and passengers should go through metal detection doors.

Waiting for boarding: You can wait for a rest in the corresponding terminal according to the boarding slogan displayed on the boarding pass, and listen to the broadcast prompts for boarding.

International flight arrival process health quarantine: If you get a health card issued by quarantine on the plane, please fill in the necessary items and hand it over to the health station.

Border inspection: confirm whether the entry card has been filled out, and submit it to the border inspection station together with the passport and visa for inspection.

Pick up the checked baggage: confirm the flight number and pick up the checked baggage on the corresponding baggage conveyor belt. When there is a lot of luggage, it is more convenient to use a baggage cart. Some airports charge for using baggage cars, so please have small change ready. 1 USD, 2/USD, 5/USD notes and a few quarters.

Customs inspection: If the goods carried are not beyond the duty-free scope, take the green channel (no declaration channel); If it is over or unclear, please go through the red channel (declaration channel) for inspection or customs formalities.

Enter the arrival hall: exchange US dollars in the reception area of the hall. Go where you should go according to the airport signs, and you can choose to take the hotelfreeshuttle.

Take a taxi or wait for a friend to pick you up.

In America, hotels usually provide free accommodation.

Shuttle bus, they come every once in a while, so just wait a while and see the name of your hotel, and you can get on the bus directly.

Some hotels need to make a phone call and get to the hotel for free.

Take out your reservation letter after the bus waiting area. There must be a phone on it. Call them and tell them that you have arrived. The hotel will send a car to pick them up.

Baggage claim, customs declaration and customs clearance procedures 1

Passengers are guided to the entry inspection room and queued for inspection according to different entry visas. Hold a non-immigrant visa (F 1 (student visa), B 1 (business, tourism), etc. , should be ranked in

Non-resident (non-immigrant) teams, holders of immigrant visas or green cards, belong to the ranks of citizens/residents.

Second step

When it's your turn to be inspected, put your passport, I-20 or

IAP-66, I-94 and customs declaration form are submitted to immigration officials for inspection. Holding a passport and visa does not guarantee entry, because the visa only gives the holder the right to request entry, and whether or not to allow entry is in the hands of immigration officers.

My treat.

The immigration officer will check the "blacklist" to see if this person is on the list. If he has a bad record in the immigration department in the past, it will be difficult for him to enter the country if he is deported.

Third step

As usual, immigration officials will ask you some questions, the most important of which is to determine where you will live after coming to the United States, the purpose of coming to the United States, and how much money you will bring. Don't be nervous, just answer calmly.

Fourth step

After asking questions, immigration officials will sign/stamp I-20 or IAP-66 and I-94, indicating the entry date, visa status and legal re-entry period.

Baggage claim, customs declaration and customs clearance.

Baggage claim, customs declaration and customs clearance procedures. 1

Go to the baggage claim area of the terminal building according to the instructions on the aisle, and find the baggage claim desk of your own flight according to the computer screen or notice (there are flights on the boarding pass).

Step 2

Take the luggage off the turntable and check the luggage number carefully, because many suitcases look exactly the same.

Step 3

There are trolleys at the airport, 3-5 yuan. In some airports, trolleys are free. You can also ask a porter to do it for you, and you need to pay an extra tip.

Step 4

The international airport is very big, so it is often easy to find the wrong turntable when picking up luggage, and sometimes airlines will neglect their work.

Don't be nervous if you can't find your luggage. Check with the airline with the baggage registration stub on the boarding pass. If you still can't find it, you must fill out a loss report form and write down the name and telephone number of the airport service personnel for future inquiry.

Step 5

When queuing for customs clearance, you may wish to choose the shortest line to queue up for inspection. Don't look around and hesitate. Smile, be sincere, answer questions, but don't talk too much, lest you ask for trouble.

Step 6

When you check your luggage, you should hand in your certificate. If the customs requires unpacking inspection, open it immediately, don't hesitate. Don't doubt that the customs officer motioned to pass, and immediately put forward the luggage to leave.

According to American law, customs officers have no right to open your luggage without permission, but if they ask you to open it and you refuse, they have the right to open your luggage.

Step 7

If any prohibited items are found in the luggage, they will be confiscated on the spot and pay a high fine. For example, if a chicken claw is fined $300+,your information will be blacklisted by the Immigration Bureau. In the future,

Every time you go through customs, you will be checked out of the box. But sometimes if you are lucky, you can get through customs quickly. Take good care of your luggage, no more or less, and don't take any luggage through customs. Beware of others using you to smuggle drugs.

Step 8

Always pay attention to your luggage documents and don't leave your body in case someone takes the opportunity to steal them. If the cash brought into the country exceeds 1 10,000 USD, it should be declared to the customs voluntarily.

Change machine steps. 1

If you want to change planes after entering the country, you have to estimate the time and report to the airport counter of the airline you want to change as soon as possible. Of course, your luggage still needs to be checked again.

In 2007, the general process was to get off an international flight first, and then queue up for customs with carry-on luggage.

Step 2

After that, go to the baggage claim turntable to collect the baggage and arrive at the health and epidemic prevention inspection. At this time, passengers' boxes will be randomly checked (not everyone will check them, but there should be no luck).

If it passes smoothly, there will usually be a conveyor belt next to the health and epidemic prevention inspection office, so wherever you go, you just need to put your transit luggage on it.

Step 3

Take your ticket to the flight information TV wall, reconfirm the boarding gate and boarding time of your flight, and then go to the boarding gate. At this time, security inspection is needed in the United States, and it is recommended not to buy liquid before security inspection. Go through the security check to the exact boarding gate and wait for boarding.

Step 4

If the airport is very big, you might as well ask someone for help to avoid going the wrong way. After completing the transfer formalities and finding the confirmed door, you can have a rest period. At this time, you might as well walk around, stretch your muscles or go to the toilet.

Pick up the plane and check into the hotel. Please keep quiet in the hotel. Don't make any noise. Please close the door after entering the room. Please don't take anything in the room. If you want to keep it as a souvenir, please buy it from the hotel. All personal telephone charges, beverage charges, laundry charges, etc. I should pay for it myself.

Pay at the front desk when you check out; The hotel does not provide dental appliances and disposable slippers. Please bring your own.

Please take your hotel card when you go out in case you get lost. Be sure to bring pocket money when you go out, especially at night, to avoid trouble.

Tipping: All service personnel in America make a living by tipping. According to local customs, they tip the hotel cleaner 1 USD every day, and the driver and tour guide ***6 USD every day (the overall tour fee does not include the tour guide's tip).

Valuables: Please don't put valuables in the room, but store them in the safe at the front desk.

I hope you can master the process of entering the United States before you go to the United States. Finally, I wish you a safe journey!
