Makes sense, just would swear a year ago at LAX there was still a line going past an agent. But maybe that was even longer back. Does that mean non-GE folks do their customs declaration at the kiosk now? Beyond contraband there are dollar limits, booze limits, etc. I've had GE for so long it is hard to remember.
