I just took an AF 777 from CDG to LAX and even though I was in Affaires and one of the first off the plane, it took me 20 minutes to get through immigration, 15 more minutes to get my bag, then 20 more minutes to go through customs. Perhaps it's different in TBIT than T2, but it was a mess.

Ill be taking the A380 to DXB from CDG in March and hoping immigration/customs won't be that bad. Hoping the plane will be a good experience too since I'm wary of such a huge plane and all those passengers in 1 space...
