Hello everyone,
I read somewhere that after customs and before you exit the airport that the customs agents are inspecting your luggage now for any food items you may bring on the island. Is this in fact true, as we bring frozen items every year.

Thank you.

It was posted here (can't find it) that SXM was conducting inspection AFTER luggage carousel on arrival when a flight arrived from, I believe, South America.

Looking for drugs and unfortunately no separate carousal for that flight so luggage mixed in from stateside flights was being checked thus delaying people. But I haven't heard that was still being done so not sure.

That may have been what your spouse heard about.
