USDA Scanners at San Juan Airport

[rye_guy81]

is it true we can avoid these USDA scanners if we are coming directly from the cruise ship and still have our disembarking tags on our suitcases?

 

Thanks

No!!!!

That hasn't been true for many years. It's why ships can't do luggage valet in SJ (tagged from the ship and sent right to your airline).

Still must go through the USDA screeners in San Juan and also in Hononlulu even though you just came off a ship. We were subjected to this at both places. No biggie! If you don't have anything to hide it only takes a few minutes.

Great Thank you just trying to plan what time to book flight for I know there is only 2 ships debarking but we are Canadian so cannot use self assist but think a 1130/noon flight should be okay

It's easy and only takes a few minutes. Just be sure that you do the screening once you walk in the door. Some folks pass it up, go in line to check luggage then are told they need to go to screening.... That is really the only delay.
