Port Everglades Pilots Two Electronic Customs Programs

Passengers returning to Ft. Lauderdale's Port Everglades on Carnival Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean International this summer may or may not speed through US Immigration and Customs, depending on how well a couple of new electronic programs work.

Port Everglades is the first US port to have the new programs, although versions are being tested in several airports.

Details appeared in the June 22 edition of Cruise News Daily.
