MBJ Arrivals Service

We are travelling to MBJ in January in UC and wondered if there are any priority arrival arrangements for Immigration and Customs.

I see Club Mobay offers arrival service but not sure if this has any value especially as the VS65 arrives at 17:35 when the airport is less busy?

Does anyone have any experiences or advice that they can share?

I don't recall there being a priority arrival service a MBJ., We have visited several times & don't recall bad queues at immigration. I would recommend you use a porter to take suit cases from baggage carousel to transportation as they always seem to take you straight to the front of the customs queue, well worth a few dollars.

Have a good trip.

I would add to what Oldboy said that it's very important to fill out the landing card very carefully and correctly and have it in your hand as you leave the aircraft. They consistently check them before you reach immigration (sometimes even on the corridors between the plane and immigration) and if you haven't filled it out correctly they stop you joining the queue / pull you out of the queue meaning you can drop a lot of places behind rather quickly.

Thanks for the advice tim & Oldboy.

Having discussed with others I don't think it is necessary to pay for the arrivals service.
