Arriving PTY from US, no customs now?
Arrived pty yesterday from LAS, customs hall was still pretty empty, yet from my filght folks were diverted into a bypass line which just exited customs without doing the usual xray routine - this is not the 'green light/red light routine but human diverting traffic before entering the rope maze.
I arrive in PTY regularly and haven't seen US flights essentially skip the process before.
HAs there been a change in routine for US arrivals or was this perhaps a one-off?
