Shannon Albert from W.D.W prep school.com thank you for being here for

0:36.9

episode 385. Today is a long episode I know how many of you like these

0:42.0

and there was really no other way for it to not be long because it is a group of 11 going for I believe eight days to Disney World so there's lots to talk about I'll get into my

0:54.1

chat with Brianna here in just a moment before we get into that I did want to

0:58.4

mention that in a couple of episodes this year the idea of having airports with pre-clearance has come up.

1:06.5

For instance, when I did my Alaskan cruise and I flew in and out of Vancouver,

1:49.0

It also includes a couple airports in the Caribbean, including the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Aruba, a couple in Ireland and in

1:57.7

UAE, I believe it is.

1:59.8

So if you are in those airports and flying back to the United States, you can do customs there,

2:05.8

which can save a lot of time when you get back to the United States because you don't have to do it here.

2:10.3
