Cruise ship security / US Customs
    #14540027 - 05/31/11 10:15 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

I went on a cruise a few weeks ago that left out of the US.  I was surprised by the amount of anti-drug security they had both for departure and again for arrival.  After we had checked in with the cruise line and had gotten our boarding pass / room key, we had to walk down a narrow hallway to a waiting room before boarding the ship.  In the narrow hallway they had two US Customs and Board Protection dogs sniffing passengers and luggage as we walked by.  There was no way to avoid being sniffed.  If the dogs hit on a smell, they would follow the person (or luggage the person was carrying).  In the ten minutes or so that I sat in the waiting room, I counted three different people get nailed by the dogs.  They would immediately take the victim's passport and escort them away, presumable to be searched.  When we arrived back in the US and debarked the ship, they had another drug sniffing dog doing the same thing.

Interestingly enough, this is the exact opposite from my own experience...

Sorry to hear of such a frightening experience! I wonder if the dogs were mainly hitting on passengers just carrying some measly pot aboard?
