Microwave Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I've twice flown into cnx with more bottles of spirits than allowed. I didn't declare the extra firewater and nobody checked my hardshell suitcase. I have heard of people with softshell suitcases who have had an immigration official lightly touch the outside of the suitcase but found nothing. I'm not saying that you won't be caught, but I wouldn't be worried. If your extra firewater is found, they'll likely confiscate it and let you continue on your way. Best wishes.

Donnyboy Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Ive been in the cnx customs line when they have checked almost every person. That was when I flew in when it was the only plane at arrivals. They waved on anyone with hand luggage only, but checked about everyone else. Other times, when there were several planes being processed, they were being selective on who to check. Best to wait for them to be busy with others before running the gaunlet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiPauly Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Thai Visa does not condone any actions which break the law. If the OP wishes to take a chance on bringing in more alcohol than is allowed thats his decsion. ///CLOSED/// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
