The other day my PG flight was late and the bus couldn't make the U turn at E1A until 3 buses full of a UN flight passed by. I normally don't use my FastTrack coupons on the inbound but I sure as hell did then. The line was snaking through the maze on both sides of the main hall.

Inbound I place my arrival form on the first available page. The agent takes out the arrival form and then proceeds to pour through looking for the first available page. Outbound I often place my BP on the page with the departure form/entry stamp. Without fail the immi agent takes the BP out and then searches the passport for this page. It's rather comical.
