So far it is JUST this flight according to announcements in customs.
I’m not at my final destination yet, so yet to see if it works
This has been happening with some flights SYD-LAX at least on AA and it works well. I believe something similar is already in process coming from Japan on DL. At DFW some AA flights from LHR don't even have to reclear security. Crossing fingers it expands greatly.
