They are not all bad...

As we get lots of threads complaining about US Immigration and TSA, I'd just like to say that my recent trip through Sandford, Orlando, was a delight.

The flight with TUI to and from LGW was pleasant and on arrival we had a short queue, a genuine welcome as we had our passports checked and were soon on our way.

Coming back yesterday, the check-in staff had a little laugh as our combined baggage crept just under the weight allowance. This was followed by an efficient trip through security, where everyone seemed to be helpful.

It might not have been at its busiest, but it does go to show that it doesn't have to be an ordeal, so some credit for a change.

Oh, and after landing at Gatwick, the aircraft was parked at the furthest end of the North Terminal, so we had a long walk, but by the time we got to the carousel, bags were coming. All together in our car and on our way within an hour.

A good trip.
