She told the outlet, “Some days both levels get slammed, and unfortunately this trick won’t work.
“And of course, if there are any rules or laws at your airport that say you can’t use this hack, don’t break them.”
Also the frequent flyer told Newsweek, “If you don’t have Global Entry (a U.S. Customs and Border Protection program), which I highly recommend and can get for free as a benefit from many travel credit cards, download the Mobile Passport Control app to speed up your entry through US Customs.
‘Not all airports support this, but the ones that do make it so much easier and faster to skip those long lines at customs.’
