Has anybody who has travelled to the US since 26 October noticed any differences in the Green Visa Waiver Immigration forms[?][?]

I normally like to fill mine out before I leave for the airport and keep a small supply here at home. I certainly do not want to fall foul over any new requirements;)

Also, are Immgration Officers now insisting on zip codes added to the address on the bottom[?][?]

Thanks for any help

Well seeing as its October 19 they would have to be time travellers [:p] I flew out on Saturday and it was the same as it has been all year. No zip was required on the form or asked for at LAX immigration. Off to SFO next weekend possibly so should be able to see if its the same after October 26 :D

Guessed that in the end :D I'll post back next weekend if I go (still not booked/confirmed trip yet!), if not I'm sure there will be others off to the US this week

I picked one up at VS check in about 30 mins ago. The contents of the form itself seem to be exactly the same.

The font and the arrangement of the form seem slightly different though, and there is a new section about "Public Reporting Burden" - i.e. how long an average joe should take to fill in the I94W - they reckon on 6 minutes!

Morning from the Clubhouse, BTW. T-27 mins to haircut... ;)

Cheers!

I know that the CH is still a work in progress, but there's a desperate need for some more "working space" and quiet space. There was no desk to sit and and plug in with my laptop, where there was any peace and quiet.

Whereever you were in the CH, there was either the TV, or loud music. Eventually, I think someone complained to the staff and the music was turned down to be much quieter. I'm totally surprised that the speaker system in the CH hasn't been "zoned" better - with the music slightly louder around the bar area, and then quieter near the waterfall/pool.

I really hope this will be catered for when Phase 2 is built out.

Yesterday's VS7, which I was on, was delayed about 4.5 hours because G-VROC disgraced herself with a faulty cargo door seal. It meant that I was in that Clubhouse for a loooooong time, and with the VS45 being 4 hours late going too, it got rather crowded in there.

Nice haircut, and one of the best shoe-shines I've ever had. My slightly tired old Ecco boots look like new!

Cheers,
Mike
