Yes I am a frequent international traveler and I always have issues with the waiting time for the luggage to come out..... always....

Yeah, I think that's one of the worst things about travelling, especially internationally. Last time I arrived back in Aust. everyone on my flight thought our luggage was gone. I swear it took over an hour to come out on the belt. And I got through passport control in less than 5 minutes because of those new computerised things this thread is talking about. It wasn't fun.

Although, the worst is when I'm waiting at Nairobi airport hoping like hell my luggage actually arrived with me. Now THAT is always an anxious wait. I always carry a change of clothes etc... in my carry on, just in case.

Barring anything unforseen, I don't think they'd be much use to Yours Truly, as *I* usually fly into The States from the East Side (i.e. JFK or EWR)

I'm not sure about JFK or EWR, but I think I saw them at PHL a couple of years ago when they were being set up. If they're not there already, they'll probably be at most of the major international gateways soon.

This allows US citizens to use their passports at a kiosk when going through customs and immigrations to completely bypass the long lines when re-entering the US.

There are two kiosks at LAX. I think they have them at SFO as well.

yep

MY big problem, at this moment in time, is WILL the Icelandic volano situation mellow out enough for us to make it back home on 1 June?
