Hello forum mates,
Just want to share our landing experience. We landed last Aug 10 via PAL-Canada Air. From Naia terminal 2 I would say swerte kami kc hindi mahaba ang pila from checking in - immigration. Same thing happened pgdating sa Vancouver, wala masyado pila and mabait ung immigration officer nginterview sa amin. Ung tinanong la ung mga questions stated sa COPR and ung information lang nung sponsor namin (name,address and telephone). Hindi na rin hiningi ung custom declaration form. Sabi nila siguro dahil may kasama kami mga bata kaya naging maluwag ung process. And advice lang po, pgdating niyo ng Vancouver hindi nman kayo mahihirapan hanapin kung saan kayo pupunta may mga airport officers na ituturo kung saan kayo pupunta. Go directly sa immigration office kung wala po masyado pila, you can pick up your baggages after. dont worry based sa experience namin hindi nman mawawala sa conveyor kahit hindi kunin kaagad. it will save you time especially kung may connecting flight pa kayo. kung mahaba nman ung pila pwede nyo na pickup ung baggages then kahit ilagay nyo lng sa tabi-tabi ;D
Overall it went smoothly. Mahaba nga lang ung travel time. Good luck po sa mga mglaland soon
