A followup question about the luggage screening: After you place the luggage on the belt, how does US customs do their inspection, if necessary?

Also, at CATSA, is there a line for GE priority screening?

For the first question above, the same way as it has been at YYZ: for most checked luggage it’s done behind the scenes, and if CBP want a closer checked baggage examination, they pull the bag and then maybe you while talking to the CBP or even sometimes after first talking to CBP at YUL.

For the second question above, there is priority CATSA passenger screening. That is why I mentioned GE card in my prior post — you’ll need the card at YUL for CATSA priority screening at least.
