Cleared customs went to the first floor to hail a cab, and my husband lit up a cigarette. Three men in black immediately approached (mind you we are OUTSIDE of the airport building) and wanted to know how many cigarettes he had on his person, and then proceeded to search our belongings.

I almost played dumb and handed them what little he did have. I keep telling him it is bad for his health.

On a serious note: Do not light up, if you have more than you should have and have not declared.

Seems like customs have a new hobby at the new airport, shake down the farang.

Wonder what they'd do if you uncapped a litre of Jack just outside the terminal doors?

Interesting, LaReina, and thanks for the info.
