Something I'll have to think about if I'm taking any of the earlier shuttles (I doubt Tul. will be popular at 8pm at night). The time for the later ones is more driven by the pax demographics than anything else due to the border. Mostly a bunch of Canadian/Americans/UK (at least white) - pretty quick through immigration. Other nationalities can really slow things down depending on the immigration officer. Add in any other charters, and the border is the one truly big ? in the timing.

At some point, I might just fly to SEA instead of taking the bus if the time keeps increasing or becomes too unreliable.
