JFK

[OldSpice]

Folks, how's the JFK airport as a port of entry for pakistani US green card holders? any pleasant/unpleasant experiences?

I have never used JFK before. Is the "interrogation" any more/less than lets say Chicago OHARE?

Thanks.

I am embarrassed at how bad the process is for non-U.S. citizens, but it is a sad reality in the world today. The process is going to be pretty much the same wherever you enter. The best way to do it is to find a smaller port of entry, to avoid LONG lines and irritated customs officials.

With that said, maybe JFK is not too bad. I have little experience there. But I go through DFW (Dallas / Ft. Worth) probably 100 times a year. Even foreign air crew, well-documented, with ID, have to do the photograph and fingerprint thing. I feel bad for them. Other countries I go to have much more professional courtesy, and the process is more streamlined and fast.

I've never had any problems at JFK and I enter US 4-5 times in an year from there..Prolly because the Air India flight is among the 1st ones in the day and there is not too much of a line at 6:30 AM
